I don’t know anyone else that has seen it! I can’t be alone in thinking it’s freaking amazing!

And Nadja is co host of the big flower fight on Netflix which is amazing.

Love Nadja ‘oh my sweet Gregor Jeff’ 😂😂

Parkandride · 11/02/2021 21:56

I love it!
Can't believe Nadja is the sister from Stath Lets Flats, she's very versatile!

My favourite episode is the one where an emotional vampire starts working at the same place as Colin. When I first saw it I was working with someone who was a complete emotional vampire, and after that she could no longer annoy me at all

I'm going to have to watch it all again. Just reading this thread is making me grin from ear to ear.

It should probably be made compulsory lockdown watching. It would be good for the nation's mental health.

Hmm, I've been wondering about this. Loved the film, long time Jemaine Clement and Taika Waititi fan, but wasn't sure about the show. I'm reassured by these reviews and will watch tomorrow and report back!

Tormundsbeard · 11/02/2021 22:10

It is so brilliant. I want Series 3 now.

247SylviaPlath · 11/02/2021 22:24

Am half way through the first series ...I am soooooooooo glad I saw this thread and everyone’s views on it - the series so far is definitely as good as the film - different but really good - I love Nadja and am pretty sure I work with Colin. God bloody love Mumsnet.

Deedeedocket · 11/02/2021 23:02

@247SylviaPlath I’m so glad you watched it. X

Also started watching in lockdown and love it so much! From series one, my favourites are creepy paper and also:
'Just three silver bullets?'
'It's worse than that, we haven't even got a gun.'

CaveMum · 12/02/2021 15:47

I’d say if you like WWDITS and need something else to watch with a similar sense of knowing humour I’d recommend Motherland (written by Helen & Graham Linehan (he of Father Ted fame) and probably also Ghosts, starring most of the Horrible Histories ensemble.

ScrambledSmegs · 12/02/2021 15:52

We love this show! They're currently filming season 3, due to be released around Halloween apparently (of course). Far too long to wait!

I've been trying to get hold of We're Wolves and the police spin-off (something to do with Wellington?) but no joy.

Aruba, Jamaica, oh I want to take ya...

How the hell do they not spend the entire time laughing?

Figgygal · 12/02/2021 15:56

Funniest thing on tv

My husband hates it - I really do need to divorce him Grin

ScrambledSmegs · 12/02/2021 15:58

Everyone who loves this should watch Garth Marenghi's DarkPlace. Matt Berry's first tv role as Todd Rivers/Dr Lucien Sanchez. It's amazing - even the sound editing is funny.

Tbh I have the DVD (get me!) and that's even funnier because it has the episode commentaries. The episode where Sanchez falls in love with a woman who's turning into broccoli is great, as he waffles on in character for ages and then suddenly goes "Why is she green?"

Amazing.

iklboo · 12/02/2021 16:08

Garth Merenghi's Dark Place is genius 😂

NiceGerbil · 12/02/2021 20:40

Yes it really is Grin

And don't forget toast of London!

Yumyumdindins · 13/02/2021 10:46

As I have found my people! DH and I absolutely love this but so far haven’t found anyone in RL who has watched it and/or finds it as funny as we do. I am sooooooo excited for a third season

Yumyumdindins · 13/02/2021 10:48

@Parkandride

I love it! Can't believe Nadja is the sister from Stath Lets Flats, she's very versatile!
Stath and Nadia are actually brother and sister in real life
Yumyumdindins · 13/02/2021 10:48

*Nadja

Deedeedocket · 13/02/2021 10:54

The Orgy and when Guillermo is narrating.

Nadja ‘what am I doing to my arse cheeks’

Ballstothis148 · 13/02/2021 11:05

Omg what am I saying... yes to Garth marenghi.... and Bon Mortimer’s Instagram page has a great take on a rubbish boss (start a few early ones to get a sense of it). And then HIS boss is Matt Berry! Such good sketches

Ballstothis148 · 13/02/2021 11:09

Oh and Matt Berry was ace on an episode of Portlandia, but really hard to find online :(

Taika Waititi is just so funny and clever, and the flight of the concord blokes... I’m sure there are other shows to recommend. Great mix of comedy legends in WWDITS!

ShallWeStartTheMeeting · 13/02/2021 11:18

When I watched the Handforth parish council meeting I kept thinking Colin Robinson would have loved it.

iklboo · 13/02/2021 15:10

We got DS 'Yes I can hear you Clem Fandango' and 'Fatherrrrrrr' t shirts for his birthday. He loves them.

Saw this online as well. Grin
