TV Review: Gavin and Stacey
The past few years have been like a sitcom desert in British TV land. I seriously can't remember one sitcom I've actively made an effort to watch from start to finish. To my surprise, Gavin and Stacey has filled that void.
The beauty of this show isn't about the Gavin and Stacey characters, it's about the wonderful ensemble cast around them. And, although there are a few storylines, it's more about finding comedy in the mundane and every day.
