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.

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

Still funny!!

purpleme12 · 03/03/2025 23:53

Going to watch this again now

Cosyvibes · 04/03/2025 00:12

Love the IT Crowd it's so funny. Agree with pp the theatre trip one is fantastic. When Moss is the bar man 🤣

Also is the one where Jen appears at the window 🤣

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?

Yes football and bank robbery and Moss pinning Roy to a garage door!

Not a bad episode in it @kinkytoes

Favourite line will always be
"Vista"
"We're going to die!"

Don't forget Ruchmond!

Peter File.

JFDIYOLO · 04/03/2025 00:53

Love the IT Crowd.

I'll get some of my coats

Did you see that ludicrous display last night?

The cannibal ...

And another shout out for Black Books.

I’ve found my people Grin

Very jealous of you, OP, for getting to experience it all for the first time! They just don’t make decently funny British comedy anymore; The IT Crowd is probably one of the last of the good ones.

Other recommendations:

• Gimme Gimme Gimme
• Black Books

LuLuRN · 04/03/2025 01:34

Love the IT crowd.
"I'm Peter File"
"You look like a magician"
The German.
The internet.

We regularly quote it still.

PleaseDontFingerMyPouffe · 04/03/2025 02:21

The Internet is my favourite.
And the one where Moss puts the fire with the other fire

Tigresswoods · 04/03/2025 06:17

Peter File episode is the best. When they go to Jen's for the dinner party, it's all so perfect.

Also late in the series you have Jen "speaking" Italian. If you watch "Here We Go" on BBC you'll see Katherine Parkinson do a very similar thing in an Italian restaurant scene.

And remember, never google google.

Simplelobsterhat · 04/03/2025 06:45

We quote this so much as a family
"That's ruddy mysterious"
"It's not for you Jen"
"Oh, that man's got the ball now" (deadpan whenever I try and watch sport)
"I'll just put this over here with the rest of the fire"

Velvian · 04/03/2025 06:53

TeddyOatmeal · 03/03/2025 23:38

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

My absolute favourite too and my DC. We refer to it often. 🤣

Velvian · 04/03/2025 06:54

2nd favourite is 'THE SHOES!' Katherine Parkinson is so funny in the IT Crowd.

BarkLife · 04/03/2025 06:57

It's TAY-pas!

PrincessScarlett · 04/03/2025 07:01

The Internet is my favourite. Closely followed by the theatre trip. Absolute comedy gold. All 3 main characters just work perfectly together.

MrsLargeEmbodied · 04/03/2025 07:04

love it
love the theatre episode
love whathisname emailing the fire service when there is a fire!

Peter File.

Who's a paedophile?

ElsaSnow · 04/03/2025 07:32

Love the theatre one, the football one, Peter file and the one where she dates the man who looks like a magician Grin

Chris O'Dowd has a new show out on sky Atlantic now so will give that a go.

Oh I love GGG! Only watched that a few years ago. I'm glad I was so rubbish at watching telly when I was younger. There's so much good stuff to catch up on!

Thankful for catch up services!! 😌

"It's too Soviet out there".

Also when Douglas turns up to court wearing the horrendous outfit Heather Mills had recently worn at the time to her divorce court hearing. 🤣.

Richmond ♥️.

AnAlpacaForChristmasPleaseSanta · 04/03/2025 07:39

@kinkytoes Also recommend watching the IT Crowd outtakes on YouTube. They are hilarious.

ANameForOscar · 04/03/2025 07:39

It's not for you Jen.

AnAlpacaForChristmasPleaseSanta · 04/03/2025 07:43

I'll just put it over here with the rest of the fire.
