The Big Issue, 27th October 2016Zapped review: hard to find any evidence it's a comedy

Tim Dowling, The Guardian, 14th October 2016Zapped episode 1 review
Zapped wouldn't be the first sitcom that failed to convince everyone on its first outing. I warmed to it more on a second watch so with time spent in Munty getting to know these characters, we could well learn to enjoy them. Love them like we love Lister or Rincewind though?

Back in June, a small gaggle of journalists and I were ensconced for a few hours within the shadowy bowels of Pinewood.

Huw Fullerton, Radio Times, 13th October 2016Preview: Zapped
Riding on the wave of Red Dwarf, Dave has moved from sci-fi to fantasy with their latest original work.
Ian Wolf, On The Box, 13th October 2016Zapped review
After finding success with the revival of Red Dwarf, the Dave channel has now turned to another cult genre to find its next comedy hit: fantasy. And the signs from the first episode of Zapped are pretty encouraging.
