Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What was the most under rated British TV show ever for you?English
16·3 months agoI really, genuinely, have always loved Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps. It’s got a reputation of being lowest-common-denominator toilet humour, which… it always was. And it had a lot of problems, the worst being that three fifths of the original cast had quit by the end.
But it also had an awful lot of heart. A totally different writing style to any other sitcom I’ve seen. An amazing dedication to silly wordplay. They were constantly trying new things (two public votes, two musical episodes, a horror episode, and a live episode). And there were some genuinely great performances, particularly from Natalie Casey (who carried the heart of the show in later seasons), and, weirdly, Beverley Callard.
Even when it did totally fall apart towards the end, they brought in new cast members and somehow managed to make it feel like a return to form.
Also The Murder Game, a BBC crime-scene investigation reality show that I desperately want the right TV executive to hear about so they can reboot it. 😬
Dude at least use a spoiler tag or something. 😅

I know this place is just the opposite kind of echo chamber, but when the other option is being beaten over the head with transphobia and Maga shit, ehh, I’ll take it.

Maybe they removed it after all the AI backlash. 😬
