We say goodbye to the era-defining sitcom with an episode full of the depravity, hilarity and human truths that have set it apart for 12 years.

Peep Show's sentimental last episode is a winner

The El Dude brothers are doomed to repeat this routine forever.

Radio Times review

So, after nine series, this is the last-ever Peep Show. Creators Sam Bain and Jesse Armstrong make every scene and every word count in a final, hilarious dose of era-ending, squirm-inducing mayhem.

Will Robert Webb and David Mitchell's El Dude Brothers, Jez and Mark, suddenly become Trotter-style winners? Will Jez and Super Hans succeed with their outrageous plot to get April's husband Angus out of the way? Will Jez face 40 without lying to his boyfriend?

While die-hard fans probably already have a good idea about the answers to these and other questions, they will not be disappointed by the excruciating, downbeat brilliance of this fabulous curtain call. This is a classic comedy that will be sorely missed.

Peep Show series 9 episode 5 review: Kid Farm

Are Mark and Jez heading for a bleak finale? This week's solid Peep Show episode suggests they may still have a chance at happiness...

DC, Den Of Geek, 10th December 2015

Sophie turns up and, while getting smashed on rum, comes out with an unexpected offer for Mark. It's one that's made all the more appealing when April delivers bad news about her and Mark's future following last week's snog. Meanwhile, Super Hans is up to some skulduggery when an online football video uses one of his and Jez's old "turbo folk" tracks, All the Whores of Malta, on its soundtrack. Deprived of credit, Jez pursues the only form of negotiation available: snake kidnap.

Ben Arnold, The Guardian, 9th December 2015

Peep Show: series 9, episode 5: Kid Farm review

For me, this is the strongest episode of the series so far, and a real step-up after last week's slightly disappointing outing.
