DVD Description

The IT Crowd sitcom centres around the lives of an IT support staff working away in the forgotten dingy basement of a large company, Reynholm Industries. Roy (the slob) and Moss (the geek) lurk in the basement fielding support calls in the tradition of IT department the world over... "the beatings are bi-weekly". Jen's been recruited by the big boss Denholm, to manage the department... but her lack of knowledge of anything computer-ey may hinder her career development path... Is it in, on, out or it? There's a lot going on behind the scenes of the software development community!

This fab Channel 4 comedy continues into its second series and is written by Graham Linehan, the co-creator of Father Ted, and Black Books.

The IT Crowd Cast: Roy - Chris O'Dowd (Red Cap); Moss - Richard Ayoade (Nathan Barley); Jen - Katherine Parkinson (Doc Martin); Mr Denholm - Chris Morris (Brass Eye and On The Hour).

All episodes in series (version) 2 are on this DVD.

4.0 out of 5 stars Ha! Memory IS RAM!!!, 27 Sep 2007
By DangermouseZilla "He's the strongest, he's th... (Doncaster, Yorkshire, UK.) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)   
Series 2 didn't seem as strong as the first one. It's a strange one this - I'd normally have given this 3 stars, but I'm so attached to the characters, and loved some of the surreal moments that I've given this 4.

The first episode was actually fantastic, and I felt it was the strongest episode across both series - if the series had continued at this pace then it would have been an absolute corker.

But, as I said - some of the episodes feel quite weak, but there's always a good `Moss moment' or some amazing surreal thing happening to make you love what's going on - for example - Richmond hiding from Jen by clinging to the ceiling - I've seen that scene several times over and it still makes me cackle like a hoarse witch!

I knew that Chris Morris was leaving in series 2, but I'm glad that he didn't simply disappear. The second episode of this series shows Denholm Reynholm's untimely exit, and it was done in true eccentric style!

One thing which is apparent in this series, is how Graham Lineham has worked to develop the characters outside of the workplace, from the first episode we see them at the theatre, we see them at a funeral, and a cannibalistic German's house - not always in the basement office!

Graham said during the commentary on Series one that he wanted to do more with Jen at her house so that it seemed to reflect her more than the one scene there in the first series. Jen is probably the most developed character in the second series and it adds to the warmth you feel for her. Same goes for Roy, he becomes more third-dimensional as a character. Moss also comes on a bit - but remains pretty much the Moss we know and love! Whenever I watch the IT Crowd I receive `Moss-isms' via text message from people who are also watching it ("..and I'm loving it", "..that's the LOWEST setting...", etc!).

There's less obvious geeky comedy in this - but it is still there in the background, as posters, stickers, and T shirts. :-)

As I said, this isn't the best comedy, but it's quirkiness and charm should win you over - especially if you've already grown to love the characters by watching the first series.

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't believe the negative hype, 6 Oct 2007
Firstly, I just wanted to say that I can't believe the negative reviews on this site (at the time of writing) - it's like I've been watching a different series judging from some of the reviewers comments featured here. The bottom line is, that the first series was a real gem, and so is this second series. So don't let any of the negative reviews put you off from ordering this - as you will be seriously missing out.

In this second series we get introduced to a new character called Douglas played by Matt Berry, who's the new boss and the son of the deceased boss - Denholm Reynholm (Chris Morris). He first appears when he makes a truly manic entrance by bursting inside the church and shouting out at the top of his voice "Father!" This character comes out with some killer lines, such as: "First it's the Ordinary Boys and now this! - I can't keep up" (referring to Roy wearing lipstick), plus "Pucker up boys - it's Hammer time!" (after having been forced to take the Rohypnol laced cup of tea) and "Who's that hoochie choochie mama?" (lusting over poor old Jen) etc.

But obviously this series wouldn't be anything without the three main characters in the IT basement - Roy (Chris O'Dowd), Moss (Richard Ayoade) and Jen (Katherine Parkinson). And I must apologise for not having much to say about these charming loveable characters, but this is only because in the reviews for the first series I feel that everything has already been said about them - including all of their idiosyncrasies. Mind you, I did love Richmond's chat up line, which was something like - "I can see the shape of your skull" (Noel Fielding).

Well done Graham Lineham on a great successful second series. I hope you win awards for it - because its silliness really charms me. So if you're into German cannibals, surreal dinner parties, exploding bras and manic bosses etc, then this maybe the one for you. Still, that's enough jibber jabber from me, and anyway I've got to go, because "there's somebody at the door!"

4.0 out of 5 stars Best sitcom since Spaced !, 8 Jan 2008
By Antonio Moncayo (Zaragoza) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
I was very impressed with the second series of the IT crowd ,the stories are a bit hit and miss but the quality of the comedy is excellent.

The main 3 characters are very funny and the dynamics between them make the series both original and fun to watch ,as said earlier there is a good joke every minute , I had to pause the DVD several times before continue watching to catch my breath.

The 6 episodes are of different quality but the musical and the dinner party are the best 2 of the whole series so far ( Yes Miss ? ). Richard Ayoade will make good anything he is in and the timing of his jokes is perfect.

The problem with the series is the supporting cast with the departure of Chris Morris, apart from an excellent Richmond Avenal ( the goth ).

There is a third series on the way and I hope they can keep the level of comedy genius.

The extras included outtakes ( just a handful ) a video journal and some commentaries.

More please
