Diane Morgan is a genius! Utterly surreal and original. Laughed like a drain. Some brilliant guests. The storylines are absolutely insane

I was so looking forward to this, but found it totally unfunny, and a bit like a student's first attempt at film school.That silly pulled down mouth - the lecturer would have said "Maybe just do that face a couple of times only......."

i have watched 4 of them now and found them all bonkers and funny.
I liked seeing female comics being ridiculous.
I love the best friend beautician - she gets good lines - "I think fish are the perfect pet, you don't need to do anything and you're not that bothered when they die"
I like the way Mandy struts around too in quite an odd way.
I like the cameos too - love the I married Sean Ryder tattoo and then he turned up with a matching one - that was funny
I like that they use the same actors for different parts - e.g the banana warehouse superviser turned up as the wedding registra.

the silly story lines that all join up somehow reminded me a little of Curb your enthusiam - as that is mostly nonsense too but all comes together somehow.

Only made it though one episode and found it to be the absolute antithesis of genius, surreal or original.

Thoroughly unfunny, derivative and amateurish imo.

AreYouSiriusLupin · 15/08/2020 14:00

Well I couldn't watch the first episode due to me having bad arachnophobia!

Are the other episodes safe for me to watch?! Blush

CaptainHammer · 16/08/2020 14:45

Agree with @Clawdy and @QuentinQuarantino

I really wanted to like it too!

fleurdeliz · 16/08/2020 18:11

I read a good review and lasted 8 minutes watching it.

It's like a bunch of ten year olds decided to write something funny for the end of year show.

So bad.

EachandEveryone · 17/08/2020 22:25

I loved the line dancing one

youngestisapsycho · 17/08/2020 22:59

The mouth is annoying. I’ve never met anyone with a mouth like that. I also didn’t laugh 🤷🏼‍♀️

sobersides · 17/08/2020 23:18

I'm enjoying it. A bit bizarre and I don't get the mouth thing but I'm not sure how it would work if she wasn't pulling that face. A bit like Mr Bean without that daft expression would just be a regular dude right? It adds to the comedy. Loved Bez and Maxine Peak too.

RedStreetMonument · 17/08/2020 23:20

I loved it!

onemouseplace · 17/08/2020 23:23

I also read a good review, watched the first episode and thought it was awful. The mouth things annoyed me so much.

I like Diane Morgan in other stuff like Motherland and Charlie Brooker as well.

LadyEloise · 19/08/2020 09:04

I planned to record all the episodes. Saw the first one and nope - not worth watching for me. Sorry.
I just didn't find it funny.
What's with the mouth ?
I actually wondered did the poor woman suffer from a form of Bell's Palsy.

madameMscastle · 19/08/2020 11:06

I found it by channel surfing, then watched it all on iplayer.

I like the actress and like most of the things shes in.

Yes the month thing is annoying if its put on, would have been more funny just now and again.
Parts of it i had to look away but im like that anyway.
while i enjoyed watched it wouldnt bother me if there wasnt another series.

5foot5 · 21/08/2020 09:34

Hmm. Watched the Sean Ryder one last night and didn't rate it much. I normally like Diane Morgan. I think Philomena Cunk is hilarious and for me she was the star of Motherland. This doesn't do it for me though

Julmust · 21/08/2020 17:58

I like anything with Diane Morgan in it, including this.

BreconBeBuggered · 21/08/2020 19:34

Really enjoyed it, but regret bingeing as now there are no more left to watch,

EachandEveryone · 22/08/2020 10:55

I enjoyed The Other One on the iplayer if you haven’t seen it

DorsetCamping · 28/08/2020 17:17

So disappointing. Loved DM in Motherland and had high expectations for this series but whoever said it was like a 'drama school' piece was spot on.

Was just trying way too hard and didn't deliver - the Shaun Ryder episode should've been comedy gold.

Blondeshavemorefun · 03/09/2020 19:17

I’m loving it. Easy watching

Tho for ages Lola was bugging me. She reminded me of someone

Dare I say who

Was watching Madagascar with 3yr this pm
And she reminds me of Gloria. The hippo. Her face

Sorry

Pjsallday · 09/09/2020 23:21

Better keep your hands off my potential new boyfriend Grin

HappydaysArehere · 12/09/2020 09:44

Mad, crazy and funny just what we need at the moment.

Tomatoesneedtoripen · 21/09/2020 06:51

agree, just what we need.
i did enjoy it
