Peep Show (now with added Mitchell & Webb Look)

This one and the Dartmouth Uni/Shoe shop are my favourites so far. I feel the hints of a Peep Show poll coming on...

The one where they do e is very good, I think that comes later in S3.

Oh yes, the ending of that toilet door episode is my favourite single scene in the history of PS.

Oldie but a goodie and a strong contender for favourite overall episode: the Darrell the Racist episode including, as it does, Indian restaurant scene "FOUR peshawari naan? that's insane, Jeremy" the recording studio scene "he probably plays in the BNP jazz combo" and other bits and pieces.

Also moreish crack.

"yeah yeah, terms and conditions may apply... this sports drink may cause anal discharge, etcetera.."

finished all 6 series. i felt like the quality dropped for s3 but the rest was great. as far as brit things going over my head, i definitely didn't understand the canal boat episode. is that like a typical thing people do over there? seems weird

What, eat raw dead dog? Only at weekends.

i liked mark yelling at the boiler and jez explaining how setting a higher temp makes it work harder

Series 4 (especially the dog bit, but also weeing in a church, setting fire to a barn) was a serious shark-jumper, and I thought the show would end there, but somehow S5 and S6 were great. Not that S4 was bad, but it got too bogged down in plot and ridiculous situations that wouldn't normally happen IRL, so the humour didn't quite work.

Narrowboat, a more genteel version of carvanning and only at 4 miles and hour -> Exactly the sort of thing Mark would be into.

Incidentally its quite a pleasant way to spend a few days.

"Obey my commands, Orac!"

all his pent-up anger at being an ineffectual dweeb is unleashed at it

Some of the storylines go a bit iffy, but every episode has tons of fantastic lines. I'd never be able to choose!

The pooing episode, incidentally, was the first thing I thought of when I saw this:
Passive aggressive housemates..

im so sick of hearing/seeing this guys on adverts/programmes/doing columns. ffs.

*these

I'm a huge Peep Show fan and yet I completely agree with you. Especially the one that plays Jeremy. The one that plays Mark can be a little more neutral in a newsreader sort of way.

watched the season 1 region 1 disc & am hooked. uh how do i shot watching more eps in the usa, short of seeking out downloads (which ill do if necessary)?

Think the Megavideo links for each episode should work for you. Pretty poor quality though.

Yeah, torrents or a region-free DVD player are pretty much your only stateside options. Worth it, though. I just rewatched the entire series and confirmed it as one of my all-time faves.

Britishers can buy the whole box set from hmv.com for £14.99 now!

Also we can watch them all on YouTube for free, haha.

wtf im so jealous of all u britishers! i guess theres a 1st time for everything

o well, ty for the info. looking fwd to watching~

I'm re-watching them atm too! s4 has all my least favourite eps on, but I still love it. s3 is a+++++++++
Also: Mitchell & Webb Sound type stuff with animation here:

Series 4 was much better on a rewatch than it was the first time through. Although the bit with the dog was still waaaaay too OTT.

how did i not know about this! My s4 DVD wouldn't play some of the eps so I ordered a new one. (Still only £8 from Amazon UK incl. shipping to US)

that's numberwang

Can't resist re-watching s3e3 - the finale of the mushroom sex party / gastric flu / broken toilet door story is amazing.

I was thinking about that one yesterday when I had a bowl of two different flavours of crisps for lunch - all mixed up!
Superhans always gets the best punchlines-
Opening the door to "Why didn't you tell me about the wanking?" in the Orgazoid one.
Opening the door to "Did you try and section me?" in the sectioning one.
In the s5 $cient010gy one, the reveal when Jeremy's going on about it changing his life, to see Hans sitting there in his buttoned up shirt agreeing with it all. Fantastic.

loooooved this episode

The new M&W Look was pretty pathetic, though I laughed at the Ceasar sketch.

Series 7 Ep.7 on 4OD now.
http://www.channel4.com/programmes/peep-show/4od#3139622

This has annoyed David Mitchell.

I mean Series 7 Ep. 1 obv.

For some reason this annoys me also. Gonna wait til next Friday.

If you're steadfastly waiting 'til Friday, then look away, perhaps...

Jez did made me laugh several times, but otherwise not that great a beginning in my eyes. It felt rather slight, especially for a series starter.

why are they still going with this, it's still mildly amusing but a seventh series...god.

The opening episode was the weakest of the last series. Haven't watched this one yet, will do this afternoon. I'm fairly confident it's still decent.

Ha, I like how people are all "gah, seven seasons!" when the sum total of Peep Show eps at this point is about equal to one and a half seasons of a US show.

^^^

To me it seems like people are looking for and expecting a decline in quality as it's gone on for a relatively long time, whereas if there has actually been one it's only been slight. Series 6 made me laugh my arse off.

S4 was the worse, but they've really rallied from that IMO.

Watched it. Not a classic but definitely funny.

was ok.

the Robert's Web thing that followed it was funnier than it should've been based on the tv listing / premise.

Yeah it was ok. The only laugh out loud part was the "sad gnome, fishing for turds".

This week's was back on form. Dobby club. Awesome.

Yeah, was much better than last week.

Don't fancy Jez's new love interest as much as his previous ones, tbf

First episode of the season that's really hit the spot for me. "I've mistakenly run to Windsor".
