David Walliams' Awfully Good Page 2

Can't quite see what you guys didn't like about this one.

Instead of the actor/ director screw-ups you get in the 'blooper' compilations, you get a whole bunch of stuff that was doomed the moment someone in the production office said 'Hey guys, I've got this great idea/ guest/ feature'.

I mean, we're all concerned with what works for an audience, right? so what's not to like?

As for David Walliams - I'd stand in a queue to hate the man, but I have to admit that this time he did ok.

I normally find him perfectly agreeable, but the way he presented it, it could have just been anyone. Seemed very autocue and presenting by numbers. He didn't add anything to it.

I liked the Robert Webb show but this was instantly forgettable. Felt like filler and could have been hosted by anybody.

Possibly why he was less annoying on this occasion.

Haha. Maybe!

He was good in The Smoking Room.

True dat.

I just liked the Australian girl in the disco dancing competition

I'm watching it in sections & there's a lot to love
Bruce Forsyth on Magnum?
Bruce Forsyth singing like Barry White.
A news Anchor telling the weatherman to keep F**ing Chickens
The Wheel Tappers & Shunters club featuring a man using a lady to pleassure himself in a way that is not only mind boggling but strangely romantic.

I had to stop it when they brought on the guys who shag cars
but I'll watch the rest later.

Too close to home?

It made me want to order an Escort for the night.

Well I'm a foot man - so I ordered a Fiat

>_<

I found Robert's Web begrudgingly enjoyable. Or perhaps 'tolerable' is a more apt description; I laughed a bit but there was nothing in it to particularly cling on to or like. Equally though there wasn't anything so bad that I disliked the show.

This was much the same. Apart from being obscenely long, and some of the lines Walliams spieling being even worse than the jokes and set-ups in scenes he was ridiculing, there was the odd laugh and the odd fascinatinly bemusing clip. At the end it had proved to be one of those shows that just leaves you feeling nothing. A bit of a waste of schedule time.

A bit of a waste of schedule time.

And mor importantly, of the viewer's life.
