First time watching The IT Crowd!

I love it!

I actively avoided it when it first came out because I thought it was going to be too geeky and cringe. But I missed a treat. Or maybe I wouldn't have appreciated it at that age anyway, who knows?

Just watched the episode where they get involved with the football fans, and the scene where they are in the pub exchanging worried glances while in amongst a load of footy fans talking nonstop had me absolutely creased up. 😆😆😆 it's just so bloody British and I love it!

Just sharing the love really.

Love The IT Crowd

Maitri108 · 03/03/2025 23:17

The trouble with Arsenal is they always try to walk it in.

My fave is the theatre trip.

Littletreefrog · 03/03/2025 23:18

The IT Crowd is great comedy. Have you seen Black Books? That is also very good.

kinkytoes · 03/03/2025 23:20

No I haven't @Littletreefrog I'll look it up. Thank you!

Oh you're so lucky. My kids watch the whole series at least once a month. It's part of the family lore.

I spotted an IT Crowd Easter Egg in Motherland the other day. Julia's husband (Oliver Chris) says her mum is at home watching Millionaire and Oliver Chris is of course Jen's boyfriend who picks her as phone-a-friend when he goes on Millionaire.

Love the IT Crowd.

wholettheturnipsburn · 03/03/2025 23:23

I'd love to be watching it again for the first time

Work outing is my absolute favourite.

Maitri108 · 03/03/2025 23:24

Faaathhhheer!

Unhand me priest!

Best ever entrance.

CointreauQuaint · 03/03/2025 23:24

Love The IT Crowd, the work trip never fails to make me laugh.

Davros · 03/03/2025 23:24

@Maitri108 I agree, the theatre trip is the BEST!

mrsfollowill · 03/03/2025 23:25

Oh wow you have come late to the party! IT crowd is epic I so wish they would make more of them Grin

@Maitri108 I agree, the theatre trip is the BEST!

It's a classic. IMO one of the best episodes from a sitcom.

"Hello, IT. Have you tried turning it off and on again?"

"Hello, IT. Have you tried turning it off and on again?"

Damn you, beat me to it!

kinkytoes · 03/03/2025 23:32

I am very late to the party I agree 😆😆 but I feel it's one of those series you can watch again and again so I don't think this'll be the last time we watch it!

Oh amazing!!

Definitely the trip to see the Musical, but then each episode I watch I think...
Oh yes, this one is the best!

Is the football one also the bank robbery one?

kinkytoes · 03/03/2025 23:34

Yes @sofaspuds I didn't put that because I was worried about giving spoilers but it appears everyone here has seen it so... 🤣🤣🤣

Love Black Books!
I went to a couple of episode recordings back in the day. Tamsin Greig used to corpse so much, it was hilarious.

onemorerose · 03/03/2025 23:37

Oh I need to watch this again now but the one where someone appears at the window had me in creases. Theatre one as well, halarious.

londontonyc · 03/03/2025 23:38

Look for Toast of London too. Matt Berry is a comedy genius.

TeddyOatmeal · 03/03/2025 23:38

Théâtre one is my favourite but also the one where they think Jen is dead 😂

ghostyslovesheets · 03/03/2025 23:42

I love the GAY! Musical and the idea that whatever door they go in they have to be that! Dd recently started telling me I’m ’arm Disabled’ after I hurt my elbow.

but Seaworld as a very odd place to go on fire is my fave and ‘I came to drink milk and kick ass’

SofaSpuds · 03/03/2025 23:43

Oh just thought of another favourite episode!
Moss on Countdown.

I'm so excited I want to watch it all again now 😊

CrossPurposes · 03/03/2025 23:46

The Haunting of Bill Crouse is my favourite. Katharine Parkinson at the window is hilarious.

So jealous, I'd love to be watching it for the first time all over again. It's still brilliant on the 10th run through but never as good as the first viewing.
