Has anyone seen anything of FM, the local radio station sitcom that ITV2 are trailering?
I say trailering, theres a few tiny clips of it in that really annoying montage advertthat's on every adbreak.
Having endured years of working in a radio station I'm hoping for funny stuff. As for the DJ side of things I think the Big Train sketch where Simon Pegg's DJ has a room of young children writing gags for him sums it all up!

You can watch the first episode now via the ITV website...

I enjoyed it, but it's clearly not going to appeal to everyone as it is quite crude at times.

I finally got it working and really enjoyed it. All the characters are very likeable except for the guy who beatboxes, he's just annoying. I think it could be an enjoyable series.
I got quite pissed off with all the f**king adverts though!
P.S. Was "Aids" in Skins?

Love, love, LOVE Chris O'Dowd & Nina Sosanya so I'll definitely be checking it out. Looks alright. After No Heroics I'm feelling pretty positive about ITV2's output.

Didn't work for me .. very much in line with Massive (same kinda vibe) - that was pants and all.

I'm waiting for this to come on TV before I watch it, but just from the trailer it looks like an improvement on the Channel 4 pilot, in particular the whole realism of it - there's not a single radio station I've worked at that looked as sleek and sophisticated as that one in the pilot did. Little details, but still...
