Sitcom Critic must have some state-of-the-art comedy measuring equipment to have detected these tiny improvements.
Lunch Monkeys - Series 1 Page 13
Brief and poorly scripted appearance by the sublime Kulvinder Ghir this week. This show wastes great actors.
The pregnant Britney woman is very annoying now. Her character is toneless.

I guess I'm just nice ... I wanted it to do well from the start so I guess I am a bit biased ... but there are people that like this comedy, but I think there's alway a handful of sitcoms that do what this is doing, nothing new and exciting about it, but it does fit in to BBC Three nicely, something to watch on iPlayer when I'm bored.

We all did. Seems you're the only one who's not been terribly disappointed. But then, as you say, perhaps you're a bit biased.

Yes, there's nothing I like better than watching something mediocre when I'm bored. Who are the people who like this comedy? And when are they due out of their collective coma?
I still think if it was in front of an audience it might actually cause someone to laugh.

Not even if the BBC filled the studio with nitrous oxide...

You're quite the comedian, you might want to write a sitcom yourself.

You're very protective of this programme, sitcom critic. Did you write it or something?!
I hope he did.

I bet he did!
Isaacs remembered to write some jokes this week. Can't for the life of me remember what they were, so they can't have been all that great, but I do at least recall laughing a few times.
Still though, previous comments stand. Too dry and gag-less. Should have been in front of an audience. Etc.

hah okay I do like the thing but no I didn't write it. o and my last comment on this thread would be suck my slightly lumpy genitalia.. perhaps this can be written in to a sitcom.

Now there's no need to descend to the level of personal abuse, is there?
