They're all scum

It is currently showing at 11.50 pm on Sunday nights, without any trailers, following apologetic announcements warning that it "may not be to all tastes".

Stewart Lee, The Guardian, 12th March 2001

Attention, Scum seems to have a budget capable of sustaining a small collection of lo-fi running gags and little else: as a result there's too much enforced repetition - leaving each half-hour edition feeling more like three 10-minute broadcasts crammed together.

Charlie Brooker, The Guardian, 20th January 2001
