The IT Crowd

MiGSY · 4 Feb 2006 at 16:41

The first episode was pretty god awful, the second was even worse. And that Jen character has got one of the most annoying voices I have EVER heard. Just hearing it literally filled me with murderous rage.

You may be surprised to know that NO TV shows use canned laughter.

The ones that arent shot live are edited and played to a studio audience, and their reactions recorded, and faded in and out when necessary.

Looked about as funny as an ITV sitcom to me - but on Channel4

it was so-so - the first ep was pretty weak but the second was better, but i expected more from the writer of father ted and black books.
i think it was mainly down to the casting - they just didn't seem to click like all great sitcoms do

Is the online stream working for anyone else?

gib786 · 4 Feb 2006 at 21:26

i cant watch the 2nd online, no link on the mini site, help!

I absolutely love the IT crowd and I love Jen's voice

. I think the reason why you can't stream the first two episodes anymore is so as to boost their TV ratings slightly. The third episode will be released online next week though.

For everyone who is asking about live streams the episodes are being reshown on channel 4 at 23:00 and 23:35

On a different tack, I really quite fancy Jen and I'm not entirely sure why.

^ She's not bad looking, I wouldn't kick her out of bed anyway.

Boring British humour isn't it? (not much to say on that note)

SexyBetty · 4 Feb 2006 at 22:28

Load of crap tbh

triggerthat · 4 Feb 2006 at 23:53

Very very poor.

marc2003 · 4 Feb 2006 at 23:59

quite possibly the worst thing i've ever tried to watch. woeful....

still, father ted's on next.... :cool:

FeFiDoh · 5 Feb 2006 at 00:07

wasnt that bad had some funny points like mos using his own stress meter "im going to ask my self a personal question, wooah look at the needle go"

I can't actually believe that this got enough interest to be broadcasted. I'd honestly rather watch Catherine Tate and she is about as funny as cancer.

FincH · 5 Feb 2006 at 00:16

It was amausing. Laughed about three times, cringed about five.

The black dude was in something else on Channel 4 wasn't he? Some Hospital comedy thing.

Now that was funny.

Luseac · 5 Feb 2006 at 00:17

2nd episode is much better, Moss sending an e-mail about the fire... lol.

Whappers · 5 Feb 2006 at 03:29

I laughed hardest at the realistic screensaver "I really love the way it looks, it's as though there is a heat haze coming off the top of the monitor, brilliant stuff"

How very dare you

I thought it was OK. It could be worse - it could be Hyperdrive.
