4.0 out of 5 stars No copy and paste catchphrases, thank the lord, 28 Jan 2008
By G. Hill "Londons dead" (London, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
After years of copy and paste sketch comedies, where people take one joke and bleed it to death with merchandising, video games and celbrities guests being bought in to say the same catchphrase I was amazed when this came along.

The Mitchell and webb look does not rely on the same joke, week in week out, and does genuinely attempt to keep its comedy fresh and new every episode.

This is so refreshing to see and the skills of mitchell and webb as comedic actors does help in lifting this above the average.

Whilst, there are still some catchphrase moments ('numberwang' etc) these are never over done and written with an air of uncertainty so that it is not overtly obvious what the final punchline is the second the sketch starts.

But mainly, the sketches are one offs, usually in the style of monty python in that they tinker with the format by stopping sketches half way through or having a sketch based behind the scenes of filming, this all leads to a superior sketchshow by people who clearly study and love the format.

It is certainly not going to get the audience Catherine tate has but it certainly keeps a much higher level of comedy. I reccommend this to anyone looking to see why sketch shows used to be (in the 1990s anyways) such a brilliant part of British comedy.

5.0 out of 5 stars FUNNY, FUNNY, FUNNY!, 16 Jul 2007
By J. Smith "Film Fanatic" (Derbyshire, England) - See all my reviews
Not as good as Peep Show, but still very, very good! This is just a sketch show from David Mitchell and Robert Webb, containing some fantastic writing and timing, and generally some fantastic sketches.
'Numberwang' is one that reccures frequently, it's just a game show that makes absolutely no sense and is just a load of rubbish, but in a good way. The last few sketches of it though offer a 'Wordwang' and a German 'Numberwang'.
The sketch with the two snooker commentators is another reccuring one. There are too many sketches to go through them all, but they are all fabulous.
Definitely worth wasting three hours of your life watching, and if you like this, why not try buying the four 'Peep Show' series, or their 'Magicians' film. It's all brilliant stuff!

4.0 out of 5 stars More absurd observations from the masters..., 18 Jul 2007
By R. Burgess (Liverpool, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I didn't catch the whole series, but those sketches I did see had me in stitches. The human shortcomings of their characters are always neatly observed... my favourites are Sir Digby Chicken Caesar who suffers from the delusion that he's Sherlock Holmes, Dick Barton and Biggles rolled into one, (in reality he's just a crusty hobo in a Deerstalker hat who's adventures are limited to park benches and dumpsters); then there's crime fighting "duo" Angel Summoner and his redundant sidekick BMX Bandit, and the very posh condencending person who's unaccountably still a waiter.
Can't wait for more...
