I enjoyed it again, great series.
But some of the bits between Mitchell & Webb backstage made Robert Webb a seem bit too stupid & I feel it works better when it's slightly more believable.
That sounds interesting. Please, do tell me less,

Loved the best man sketch, Scott, Bowers and Wilson, and the Queen; but the weatherman sketch didn't do much for me and the casino sketch dragged a bit - though I shall be having fantasies about Sarah Hadland kissing my whacker for some time to come.

The casino bit was hilarious... I would have loved to have seen them blowing bubbles as cigar stand ins though.

This was my first official viewing of this series. I thought it was great! The fair games sketch with them both using the same writers, the best man sketch, and the suicide man one had me in tears. Never knew Mr. Darcy did disco! I am so excited to see more of this series. Now I can understand all the praise the series gets.

It's inane. It's idiotic and sometimes watchable. I wasn't a fan of Peep Show so I think I didn't really give this a chance.

Didn't enjoy this one as much. Don't know why as everyone talking about the sketches makes me realise they're all quite good. Maybe I was in a grumpy mood when I watched.
I never really liked the Digby Chicken Caesar sketches, but that one was the best one they've done. I felt more sorry for Guy/Ginger though at the end, rather than laughing.

The bond spoof was the best, very funny.

Why make the link? One's a sitcom, one's a sketch show, and both have different writers. They're totally different. Do you connect Shooting Stars and Krod Mandoon...?

Best series of this show yet. I love their self-referential wit, the clever parodies (I linked everybody I know to the Gender Advertising spoof - so true, so funny!).. Some sketches still don't quite communicate to me for reasons I'm not sure about but this is definitely the most solid I've seen this sketch show be.
The hit-and-miss sketch was great; a way to stick it to the critics without being immature.
Other stand out moments; brain surgeon, snooker documentary, Mitchell as both Poirot and sea captain, the M&W dolls.
Oh and Get Me Hennimore is my new favourite of series of sketches.

Tonight's episode is bloody awful. What happened?
However, the pissing in the shower sketch made me laugh out loud (probably the only sketch that did) though and it really quite freaked me out that Webb spoke about how water running off you cock in the shower looks like your havinng a wee because I notice that all the time myself but just never feel the need to tell anyone about it. I can't believe they noticed that....and it's so true that there is nothing wrong with pissing in the shower or sink - we shave and spit down the sink when we clean out teeth so why can't we piss in there as well?

You'd better not do that in the shower...

You clearly shit in the bath too then.
No point denying it!

This isn't very good, is it, considering it's a flagship show.
