Peep Show (now with added Mitchell & Webb Look)

!!! That snuck up out of nowhere!

so looking forward to this. Last series was the first one where I thought p much the whole series was a bit off the boil, but it's still better than most other current stuff.

Looking forward immensely. Will be weird when it's finished though, it's been on tv for over a third of my life.

Yeah, last series just kind of...stopped in a really awkward way. Peep Show gets a lot of slack from me, though, for being overall one of the best shows of all time.

My first Christmas in the US, I watched the Peep Show Christmas ep and all was right again

I take it back about s8, the paintballing one was ace

Yayyyyyy

don't ever watch this

Ouch. That Big Bang Theory dude and Seth Myers' brother? INSPIIIIRED CASTING.

First episode was a riot.

this was p good i thought, yeah. nice slot for tim key. the scene where they fantasised about poisoning him was hilarious.

no way to get this in US except torrents huh?

Yeah, many laughs to be had. Right back on form.

sober hans

"It's degenerated!"
"I knew it would."

It's on Youtube right now.

thanks

last night's was even better

Oh shit I completely forgot!

jez's speech was great. another good episode.

toast of london was p funny too.

i never liked toast but after seeing matt berry on vic & bob i've softened to him and i'll admit to liking this one - it's got more heart than i had credited it for

good episode. i lol'd hard at jez's face when hans tells him to freestyle the speech. also the twins!

We ended up immediately rewinding the scene when Superhans asks Mark to be his best man. Three times. "You're a meat-and-potatoes, straight-up-and-down, Beef-Wellington, Don’t-trust-the-Argies, dick-in-the vagina, cheddar-cheese and chicken-tikka-masala-man".

Hans is owning this season so far.

"I can move move move any mountain"

Mark's reaction to "Simon" was great.

hiding in a bathroom, crushing candy and quoting shakespeare; the confused high-point of western civiliation

lmao

Feel like they're going all-out with this series

Yesterday's was fantastic

Yeah, absolutely hysterical. Particularly Mark not blinking.

yeah it's going out on a high so far. yesterday's felt like vintage peep show. they've had a few good episodes were an awkward, mismatched gathering in their flat involving different levels of subterfuge and quickly descends into recriminations and that was as good as any other.

This week's was the best of this series thus far. A bit on the broad side but they've earned the right to have fun with things at this point. I'm seriously going to miss these characters.

this week's really was all-time wasn't it

i had forgotten how much peep show had pioneered the art of uncomfortableness in modern tv comedy - not exactly cringe comedy a la the office but something stronger

"I'm eating a Fruit Corner, Jez"

or something like that. Killed me.

best episode in living memory

What was it Mark said after putting on the eyeliner? "I've been told it's the fashion, but perhaps I've been misinformed" something like that. Cracked me up.

stop actually rubbing your hands

"I'm sure you're full... of... cum... really"

Just watched it, everybody OTM, that was just glorious. Kind of surprised at a Hans-free ep being an all-time A++ highlight, but there you have it.

so cringey I had to watch it with my hood pulled over my face. terrifying

guys the 'cocktail'

'this tastes like-'

'it's moroccan. very subtle, isn't it?'

Is this Ribena?

ep 2 was my fave so far, the "best man" speech was all-time

reminded me a bit of the Enya funeral speech though

I was going to do that post

also, Mark was making his own hummous in that series where he'd lost his job and was making cutbacks

Easily the weakest of the series so far this. Still some great moments. Enjoyed Mark on Cocaine. But the plot seemed underworked.

Thought this week's was suddenly in danger of being the weakest so far, but it picked up in the second half considerably.
