I watched the first episode and I just don't get it. I might give them all a go at some point. You're not the only fan on the board though.

I'm fairly open minded and if something is a little...odd then I can usually at least get my head round it even if I don't like it but this? I watched the first episode and I really didn't know what to make of it at all. I might need to watch all of them for it to make more sense to me though.
I'm not a big fan of horror films though for what it's worth. |

I don't get this kind of humor at all, I personally think these kinda shows are ruining Adult Swim.
I do like this one show they have now though, Look Around You, originated from BBC so some of you have probably heard of it. |
I absolutely love it. Personally it's my second favourite British comedy series (the top spot going to the mighty I'm Alan Partridge). It's just a shame it only lasted one series.

Adult Swim is a TV channel I believe...
I haven't see this but I love Richard Ayoade in The IT crowd. I've also seen a few eps of Look around you and thought it was mildly amusing but not enough to watch the entire two seasons. |
Richard Ayoade is purposefully awful in Darkplace but still hilarious. No small feat. That shows you how much I know about Adult Swim then :laughing:
|
Just watched a few eps, it's not bad...:) It's actually a fairly similar spoof to Look around you so I don't quite get how Booby didn't like it...:\
|
I used to watch it every time it was on Adult Swim, it sho is funny.

I just don't understand the references in this show or what it's parodying. It must be a British thing. |
Look Around You is just awkward. Funny, but god what is going on in that show.
|
I like it, it's the same kind of surreal, awkward humor that guys like Mitch Hedberg and Demetri Martin use. And growing up on PBS as a kid I know exactly what it's parodying.
|
It definitely is funny, no doubt. I laughed my ass off at the math episode. Awkward humor is hilarious. I think Tim and Eric Awesome Show does the same kind of thing but more random than "strategic" (if that's the right word) awkward humor.

Great show. One Track Lover is the greatest music video of all time. The humor is great and the cheese is perfect.
