Meet The Richardsons review

Until today's comics grow out of the puerile urge to swear for laughs, there can never be another truly funny sitcom. Foul language kills good comedy. It ditches the need for wit or clever characters, and replaces them with an easy spatter of obscenity. Meet The Richardsons (Dave) is a prime example.

Review: Meet The Richardsons

Jon Richardson seems to treat this as a time for re-gifting, or recycling, his old jokes. One about a 'sad-vent calendar', with depressing messages behind the 24 doors, was reused from an old episode of C4's Eight Out Of Ten Cats Does Countdown. He didn't even try to pretend it was new. That's hardly entering into the spirit of things.
