TV review: Mammoth, BBC Two & iPlayer
Yes, there is a heavy reliance on time-warp gags, often involving Bille Jean King references. I do wonder what audience it's aimed at - not just people who were around then, surely? But if you get the name checks they do work, exposing how ridiculous the 1970s were while also slyly hinting that maybe some aittudes now are not necessarily as progressive as they might seem. It's also a sneaky way of getting unreconstructed gags back onto television. If it gets both demographics it could be massive. If not it could soon be extinct.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 17th April 2024Mammoth review
Pitching Mammoth must have been a breeze: "A 1970s PE teacher is transported to 2024 - hilarity ensues."
