Peep Show series 6 episode 5 review
Is this the strongest series of Peep Show ever? It's certainly the most self-assured.
Mark Oakley, Den Of Geek, 19th October 2009Peep Show: season six, episode five
A party brings plenty of internal monologues - and just the right amount of revulsion.
Julia Raeside, The Guardian, 17th October 2009Peep Show Episode 6.5 Review
Overall, it almost goes without saying that this was a truly marvelous episode, packed full of memorable moments and lines of dialogue - from Mark's iPod suddenly "shuffling" the party music to a dull speech, Jez describing Mark as "a fusty, sweater-wearing no-fly zone with a ten-foot carrot up [his] arse", the throwaway shot of Super Hans making his snake dizzy in a salad mixer, Mark's unspoken quest to discover who blocked his toilet, and Jez agreeing to be Elena's "human mannequin".
Dan Owen, Dan's Media Digest, 17th October 2009Mark's (David Mitchell) impending fatherhood fast approaches in this sitcom about two hapless flatmates whose horrid luck provides consistent amusement for the rest of us. He and Jeremy (Robert Webb) decide to throw a party, each seeing it as an opportunity for romance. Jeremy tries to make his casual lover Elena (Vera Filatova) jealous. Mark, meanwhile, hopes to finally hook in his long-term object of infatuation, Dobby (Isy Suttie).
The Telegraph, 16th October 2009It's Friday, it's 10pm, it's Peep Show. Another effortless visit to the blackly comic lives of Mark and Jez, who this week are planning a party - mainly so Mark can get it on with Dobby again. There are so many effortless one-liners in any episode of Peep Show, it's practically obscene.
