Either Marc's gone mad or he doesn't agree that this sitcom is a sitcom.

It's not. It's comedy drama at best.

Quote: Marc P @ August 17 2010, 10:17 PM BST

It's not.

It is!

Quote: Matthew Stott @ August 17 2010, 10:19 PM BST

It is.

Well yes it is if you like - and and as a sitcom it is not very good and as a comedy drama it is worse if that is what you mean?

It's a fairly good, but not excellent, sitcom.

If you don't like it, then it's a not very good sitcom, yes.

How is it not a sitcom? Was The Royle Family not a sitcom?

Bunch a mentals, the lot of you.

It's obviously a murder mystery, it's criminal.

This, but Aaron and I are very tolerant with comedy. I look for what is good rather than what is bad. And I enjoy much rather than looking for stuff to criticise.

Okay . . ? It feels like I've missed some of the conversation here!

I hear you brother :)

:S

I also prefer to look at the good in shows, rather than hoping for things to tear to shreds.

It makes for a happier life.

The Royle Family is funny, crucial for sitcom.

Not really, there have been many terribly unfunny sitcoms over the years.

The responses to this banal and empty show are far more interesting than the show itself.
