AIBU to find repeated Sue Sue Sue comments on Ann Droid boring now

[HelloDenise]

In every discussion about the TV comedy Ann Droid there are numerous posters writing "Sue Sue Sue".

We've just had episode 4 and it's not been said since the very beginning of the second episode and doesn't feature anymore yet everyone is writing it on posts. AIBU to find it boring now? The show has moved on and it's funny enough.

Completely agree ‘

i loved it

Should’ve have gone Specsavers!

I enjoy it, apart from the wet lettuce son. It is quietly funny and often sad.

The comments I'm talking about are from Facebook not here.

It did get better, I was a bit 50/50 after the first episode but episode 2 was very funny and I saw it through to the end. It’s a lot better than most recent attempts at new comedy.

It's a trope about how old people interact with technology they they don't understand

Some music might cheer you up <plays cotton eye Joe>

I've watched it all on iplayer and I really enjoyed it. You do need to persevere. Michael is a waste of space, that's the idea.

Exactly, a trope. And old people might shout as a trope because they are a bit deaf, but why three times? Simply an unfunny joke.

? Sorry you're so personally invested in the success of a BBC sitcom (and thanks I love Rednex, even pop in an oak)

I enjoyed it. Silly and enjoyable.

Really dumb concept. Amn Droid should have been one skit on a wider skit show. Comedy for "my kids are my world" vibes

I took a couple of episodes to get into it but ended up enjoying it. I did laugh at "all of your dresses are bloody awful."

It’s get better after episode 1 and it’s quite heartwarming in places

and I fail to see what you are bringing to the table

Bet your house is fun!

I adored Ann Droid, but can imagine exactly why man-child Michael and his scumbag wife are kryptonite to Mumsnetters

Agree. The radio adverts are so fucking awful I leap across the room to mute it when they're on.

Very glad I've not paid license fee for decades, so can't watch it anyway 😂

We've really been enjoying it and everyone in our house thinks Sue Sue Sue was hilarious.

I think it's so clever that it was only used in the first episode but it's the first thing anyone says when you mention that you've watched it.

Not everyone can like everything. I loved Mandy, also by Diane Morgan, but my DH thought it purile.
I think you need to look beyond the immediate action on look at the poignancy of the message behind it all. Simply, I took that to be that loneliness is awful, but having company is good, even from a robot. I also think there’s an analogy for uncontrollable AI when the robots escape. And that community trumps all - such as the charity shop lady using the broken down taxi for the past twenty years, rather than a new one.
I’ve only watched it through once and no, I’m not overly invested, it just engaged me.

The first episode made me cry

Yes. I like the series but the repetitive Sue Sue Sue comments are like the repetitive spider willy giggling on hanging out washing overnight threads.

I loved it. I found it poignant and moving and it united our whole family in our hatred of the useless son.

I mentioned it to my mum and but then I said she might find it a bit close to
home as she is recently widowed and she said she’d actually watched it all and loved it and loved how blunt Linda was and sometimes she just wishes she could tell people straight like that what she thinks of them - tbh I think she has already started doing this!

I owned it
