September 30, 2009 at 6:00 pm #103888 ChrisMParticipant >http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eIgFIwKpNlE Heh. I haven’t found a lot of the George Dawes songs that great in the new series, but that one was up there. Well slightly. A foot or so. September 30, 2009 at 11:31 pm #103891 The PerformingMonkeyParticipant Thought tonight’s episode was a bit weak, which was a shame after the IMO brilliant 4 and 5. It didn’t feel like the last in the series. I’m guessing they switched episode orders round a bit. Whatever, it NEEDS to come back for another series next year. With Angelos, who I really like now. October 1, 2009 at 8:08 am #103896 Jonathan CappsKeymaster Tonight’s was probably my favourite of the series! The song was good (but not as good as ‘I Can Slightly Fly’) and I thought Vic and Bob were at their best and finally looked entirely comfortable. The reveal of the toothpick prizes was brilliant, too. October 1, 2009 at 9:09 am #103897 Pete Part ThreeParticipant Yeah, I thought it was one of the better ones of this batch with Lucas being on particularly fine form. The running jokes this series has been where things have grated for me though as most of the stuff really hasn’t held up to weekly repetition. October 1, 2009 at 2:31 pm #103902 siParticipant Angelos revealing his middle name to be Neil really made me crease up, don’t know why. But yes – more please, more Angelos. It might be a silly, same old formula, but, for me at least, it works, and needs nothing changing. It’s like You’ve Been Framed – arguably ITV’s funniest show, and it’s just a silly bloke talking over some silly clips – you don’t need anything else, just something to make you giggle. October 1, 2009 at 3:58 pm #103907 Pete Part ThreeParticipant >You?ve Been Framed – arguably ITV?s funniest show ITV’s funniest show is clearly TV Burp. They may share a host, but YBF will always be slightly shit. October 1, 2009 at 8:20 pm #103916 The PerformingMonkeyParticipant That’s because the general public are slightly shit. October 2, 2009 at 2:33 pm #103927 siParticipant Okay, fair point. Still, from The Metro’s review of E4’s School of Comedy (didn’t watch it myself – child actors…*shudder*): I generally only find children funny if they’re being catapulted off a see-saw into a dung heap on You’ve Been Framed You can’t argue with that. October 2, 2009 at 4:28 pm #103931 Jonathan CappsKeymaster I think you’ll find I could easily argue with everything The Metro says. It actually dared to suggest it was bi-partisan the other day. October 3, 2009 at 8:58 am #103958 Tarka DalParticipant > E4?s School of Comedy I caught the last 10 minutes of this last year/earlier in this one. The child actors were fantastic, particulary the kid from ‘Son of Rambow’ and it made me laugh out loud for the first time in ages. October 3, 2009 at 10:00 am #103959 Pete Part ThreeParticipant I thought it was mediocre (assuming the one the other night was a repeat?) The canned laughter grated as did the swearing (I wouldn’t give a fuck normally but this just seemed excessive for the sake of appearing “grown up”). Will Poulter is obviously quite a talented little bloke and will go far. The rest of the cast were a mixed bag with one or two being embarrassing to watch. The sketches were, perhaps aptly, a bit infantile although there were a few moments of ingenuity. If you cleaned up the language, I couldn’t see this being totally out of place on CBBC rather than Watershed E4, meaning it wasn’t quite the triumph it could have been. October 3, 2009 at 11:15 am #103963 Tarka DalParticipant > there were a few moments of ingenuity. I only saw the last few sketches myself, but I remember one about a chap coming home and finding his wife with the Plumber (or similar) and liked how it did the obvious gags and then took it somewhere else. Maybe I just struck lucky, but that one scene just stood out for me as something a bit above a lot (not all) of other recent new sketch shows. October 3, 2009 at 2:41 pm #103970 RidleyParticipant I caught the last 10 minutes of this last year/earlier in this one. The original Comedy Lab Kids’ School of Comedy pilot thingy? It’s on 4oD for those with access to it October 3, 2009 at 3:55 pm #103980 AndrewParticipant http://www.noisetosignal.org/2008/08/comedy-lab-school-of-comedy Author Posts Viewing 15 posts - 51 through 65 (of 65 total) 1 2 Scroll to top • Scroll to Recent Forum Posts You must be logged in to reply to this topic.
