Have just been reminded to buy this - Episode 1 ... where he just breaks down crying over the credits was fantastic, as was "lawfully wedded straight-man". Really enjoyed sadness/farce balance.
I've seen the whole first series - rented the DVD but keep forgetting to buy them both on DVD. Enjoyable commentaries tinged with regret as well.

Just watched the first few episodes of this; pretty darn brilliant so far. If obviously a bit horribly nineties at times. Good lord, the clothes and sets!

The size of the mobile phones! This show is brilliant. I was it in awe of Stephen Moffet's writing ability. The way he structures an episode is fantastic. I do prefer Coupling though. :)

You can see much of the Coupling style coming through in an embryonic state in this show.

He created the style for Joking apart and then perfected it in Coupling.

I think I'll have to get the DVD.

Why do they always repeat the same things over & over.
This could easily be shown & appreciated again.
 
That sounds interesting. Please, do tell me less,
