Too predictable and same-old.
Pete Versus Life - Series 1 Page 9
I like the fact that it's different people each week.
Is the DVD already out?

It would be lovely if some of the other characters were more developed next time around. Actually, what happened to his nemesis who popped up a couple of times, why not keep him as a regular bastard character?
Hopefully there will be a second run.
Second series commissioned, no confirmation on number of episodes.

I'm not sure about this, didn't like the sterotyping of the Zimbabweans, and it all just seems to be a bit obvious.
I'll watch it if there's nothing else on.
I agree. Some funny bits but nothing lollingly good.
Telling you, me and you should write a sitcom!

Hi Alfa. Er... where did you hear this from?
The front news page kindly informs us that this has been commissioned for series 2. I say, good! I like this. Very much in The Inbetweeners' sort of style.
I'm enjoying this. The main actor keeps on reminding me of a David Walliams impersonator but a lot of original stuff going on and nothing too contrived although its got close!
OK, so the last two episodes have literally been. Pete gets lucky, tells a lie (about race), his parents bust him.
A bit samey.
I quite enjoyed this, I thought the rape alarm bit was extremely funny in maybe ep 2, but why 5 episodes? seems a strange amount to me!
Sorry for the thread bump.
I had only previously seen episode 2 "Fankoo" when the series originally aired last year, so decided to watch the other 4 episodes on 4OD tonight (Only because I was prompted to when they advertised it before I watched Friday Night Dinner!).
I found it to be pretty damn enjoyable. I'm surprised I didn't watch the rest of the run originally (the "You want me to put my finger up your arse?" "Not if you're in that mood!" exchange of episode 2 had me in fits).
Not many laugh out loud moments, but I found it fun, and the gimmick of the commentators didn't get old at all.
Glad a second series is happening!
May have to rewatch this on 4OD as I rather enjoyed it first time round.
Does anyone know when this show is returning?
Series 2 has been on for two weeks and nobody knew!
Okay people did, but I was oblivious.
