Just watched the repeat of Outnumbered. I seriously believe that the girl who plays Karen is the finest actor working in comedy today.
Agreeeeeeeeeeeed!

Nah, it's Jake (Angus T Jones) from 'two and a half men'.
And what's great is that I don't think she'll become more self-conscious a performer as she ages. She really has a natural aptitude for comedy.

That better be sarcasm.

I hope so!
I hope she carries on. A lot of young actors I've liked just end up doing the one thing and then never go back to it.
I live with a Karen from Outnumbered.
Nope, not sarcasm.

My daughter Sophie was a little bit like her a couple of years ago. Full of questions which she answered herself with her own strange sense of logic.
I used to write off 'Two and a Half Men' because my uni housemates would stick it on all the time and I thought 'This stuff is so easy, they go for every lame joke'. But having given it a proper go I really like the compact storylines, neat writing (can be inclined to cheesy jokes, I admit) and Jake's dead pan delivery style. He delivers lines that 99% of child actors wouldn't know how to, especially considering they give him some pretty adult themes to grasp. I always find British child actors really grate. But I'm 'outnumbered' now so I'll back off. Don't want to start an internet riot!
PS Jake is better.

Have you seen the kids in Outnumbered, Giggle-o? I agree about child actors in comedy in general, but these kids are exceptionally good. Worth watching.
