i saw e01 of 'jam'. i now think that this was the only ep i saw of it first time round (in full at any rate). it's mostly utter shit, and the appalling rape 'joke' towards the end is just... shit. i will persevere, but it's drastically worse than...
'nathan barley'. rewatched first two episodes, and it's great.
'spaced' is still good.
'the day today' is too familiar now' so is 'kmkywap', but in a good way.

And when it's finished, all the "normal" problems look as if they are deliberately bad, for laughs or something.

The bit the other week with the rules for which snakes are poisonous was comedy gold.

Friday sees the return, on BBC Scotland only, of comedy scripted by Jack Doherty and Moray Hunter. A pilot only, mind, but it's a start.

It stars Docherty, Hunter, Morwenna Banks and John Gordon Sinclair (who hasn't actually done anything of note since Fraggle Rock, I don't think, but he gets a free pass for life in my world for Gregory's Girl and That Sinking Feeling)
Looks a bit shit, mind.

Would it really? Not that I have any dirt on Stiller or Steve Martin (both of whom I like) specifically, but it's hardly uncommon for comedians with asshole personas to carry that off into their private life (or, well, what is known of it to the public at large, anyway.) Chevy Chase and assorted 70's SNL cokeheads to thread, you know.
Ok, I don't actually live in the UK, so don't have to swallow as much of Gervais's smugness as you guys do (did hear some of his recent radio stuff, pretty painful), but I was really expecting a bit more from that clip.
