I bet there will be plenty of teens who will love it.
Plenty of teens love free cider from Muslim sex gangs, doesn't mean it's in any way redeeming.
Keeping Up Appearances and Vicar of Dibley aren't aimed at me, but I still 'get it'.
This mish-mash of stolen ideas, weak characterisation, threadbare plotting, passable performances, dull swearing and sub-par collection of dick and shagging jokes should never have seen the light of day.

Did you honestly tune in expecting anything else?
Wait, so this is my fault now? My expectations were too high? I was foolish in thinking if I tuned into a comedy programme, that it might be halfway decent? Are you saying that everything that E4 commissions is automatically going to be crap?
Mixing music and comedy is very difficult, but when you have acts such as The Mighty Boosh, Flight of the Conchords and Lonely Island doing it well, it is fantastically entertaining. The Midnight Beast are just an unimaginative pale imitation of these great acts and do the genre down.
This got on the telly because some people on You Tube liked it. Hopefully E4's Charley Bit My Finger or Sleeping Cat Falls Off Radiator sitcoms will be funnier.
