fye Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Tonights episode was terrible, Warrick Davis appears to be trying way to hard to be like Ricky Gervais again. And the whole story of him going to the school was not funny. Also they seem to be ignoring the fact that a documentry is being made in some scenes.  yeah, it seems to jump from mockumentary to sitcom and back and forth  Last week was fab so I thought the first one was just a weak debut with a stronger series following but tonight's was very weak. Although their CV is very strong in my opinion, this is by far their weakest work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Pitcos Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 yeah, it seems to jump from mockumentary to sitcom and back and forth Mockumentary and sitcom are not mutually exclusive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â yeah, maybe I explained it wrong but with The Office I thought that always came across as a documentary film crew where this was seems less consistent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members ColinBollocks Posted November 24, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted November 24, 2011 Surely I'm not the only one that finds the ditzy secretary hot? She is indeed the funniest thing in it. Â I think the series has featured some good stuff, but Warrick Davis is by far the weakest character. Like has been said, it's him doing his David Brent. Â I did laugh at the "I'm gay, me" when they were doing the Brokeback Mountain scene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Chilly McFreeze Posted November 24, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted November 24, 2011 Ugh. They're rally letting themselves down with this series. I'm a huge fan of all their previous work but this is just tired lazy comedy. How they think they can get away with recycling so much material is baffeling. Theres no heart, no story, just a few gags, a shoehorned celeb and akward pauses and looks to camera. Very dissapointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiamTheGreat Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 Surely I'm not the only one that finds the ditzy secretary hot? She is indeed the funniest thing in it. Â She's like a young princess Di with that hair. Too much recycled stuff in thie weeks ep. The bit with the handicapped kid just felt like shock for shocks sake. Warrick felt a bit bad about it after, so what? If it was a darker show, I could go along with it. But it keeps jumping around like it's made from a patchwork of different ones. The brokeback mountain bit was funny though. "Where'd you get the tent from?" "Millets" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GalaxyV.2 Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 Thing is he should have had a go at Bonam-Carter at the end. Would have given him a bit of likability and actually had a point. Gervais and Merchant have always been good at exposing people's akwardness around disability, how people act but this seems a little OTT at times. Â The second episode with Depp was the best, and the Neeson bit in the first one was top draw, but it just seems a little lazy and obvious at times. It just doesn't have the heart of the Office or the tragedy of Extras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
