Last night's TV: Outnumbered
I reckon the smartypants kids in Outnumbered need a good thrashing.
Sam Wollaston, The Guardian, 9th April 2010Outnumbered Series 3 review
Outnumbered isn't the best sitcom of last year but how encouraging is it to see a popular, award winning mainstream comedy that doesn't resort to overblown situations, pointless cameos and a laughter track to somehow remind people it's supposed to be humorous?
Steven Cookson, Suite 101, 8th April 2010What I love about being in Outnumbered
I'd have to say my favourite scene of series three was one featuring myself and Kelly, a young good looking waitress that Jake has his eye on.
Tyger Drew-Honey, BBC Blogs, 8th April 2010The stars of Outnumbered are the children
Outnumbered the hugely popular semi-improvised BBC1 sitcom about the chaotic Brockman family which returns this week for an eagerly awaited third series.
James Rampton, The Scotsman, 7th April 2010Outnumbered Review: One Too Many?
Unfortunately the programme-makers over exploit the kids' skills with little effort of their own, meaning the show turns out very similar each time. Has it got the shelf life for a whole new series? Fans will be pleased to hear it's just more of the same but many will be tired of it by now.
George Nott, On The Box, 7th April 2010Andy Hamilton on the secret to Outnumbered's success
Outnumbered is no ordinary family sitcom. Writer Andy Hamilton tells us the little trick that makes it so funny - and so true to life.
Michael Deacon, The Telegraph, 1st April 2010The Daily Mail, captured in song
It's just what you've always wanted. The Daily Mail set to music - but in a good way. No Littlejohn on guitar, you'll be glad to know, Paul Dacre is not on the drums and Allison Pearson is not doing her best Duffy impression out front. Just comic singer Dan (and Dan), some comedy headlines and a tune you'll still be fighting to get out of your head a day later. Altogether now - "Binge Britain! Single mums! Pensioners! Hoodie scum! Oversexed and underaged! Criminals get Marks & Spencer vouchers when released on bail ... it must be true because I read it in the Daily Mail."
Monkey, The Guardian, 29th March 2010No laughter required: silence is golden
Whether it's laughter from a can or the giggles of a real-life audience - recorded chortling detracts from TV comedy.
Darragh McManus, The Guardian, 24th March 2010Chubby Brown cleared of hitting woman on Teesside

BBC News, 16th March 2010Laugh lines: How Garry Shandling inspired Miranda
One of the few recent laugh-out-loud sitcoms, Miranda showed a comedic shift away from the neo-naturalism of The Office and The Thick Of It.
