that was my reaction, too, when i watched the first episode of the first season (and no more). it seemed like standard setup-punchline-setup-punchline sitcom material--and with a laugh track as well. the only thing it was missing was ricky gervais' "are you having a laugh?" guy from the fake sitcom within "extras." |

i actually though the first season of this tried to take a bit of black books humour.. the slack lead, the goofy counterpart and the sheila. while keeping it's own, there was a bit of dry irish humor in it. glad to see it made a s2 !! |

wow! a normal sit-com with laughtrack and a rating of 0.84 i thought i'd seen everything... this is so not funny and i love comedy... edit: now i finished watching it and after the lame first minutes it's actually quite funny. i'd expect it to have like a 0.65-0.7 on eztv... |

i came here to remind myself what the show was, since it had totally left my mind. it's not like the title would ring any bells, since as a previous poster pointed out, it's not really about it in that it doesn't draw from it for comedy. |

you lot must be mad - 'the it crowd' is a load of wank. typically piss-poor british sit-com. i couldn't get through more than half of it cos i got sick of cringing. it's no wonder the pubs over here do so much good business. oh, and 'nathan barley' was utterly lamentable crud. i reckon some of you posting must be part of the team that made the pile of shite. |

i'm trying to continue my quest for truth, justice and the american way - wtf do you think i am trying to get out of my post? the show is piss poor and i just do not believe there are that many freaks out there who actually like this shit. so i do suspect dodgy goings on. oh, and the original reason i posted was because i was annoyed that i wasted the time and effort to bother downloading it, (even though it was only a few mouse clicks), because of all the misinformation posted above. does that answer your question? |

i watched this last night on actual tv... it is good...but predictable...i had to mute it during the whole disabled back-stage tour dialogue. (it was just getting too painful for me to watch.) i knew from the start that it would come back down with the "looking like a guy" comment and heat magazine... i was laughing at the whole gay: the gay musical over the top gayness. this is one of the channel 4 sitcoms i can stand watching. (peep show gets painful to watch about 5-10 minutes in each episode, green wing lost me at the start of the second series...but i can't remember why.) comparing this to the equivalent show in america - the big bang theory. (two geeky guys and a woman, deals with relationships, 30 minute sitcom.) this is better (although comparing just the pilots...only just.) |

i'm quite surprised people are getting so worked up over this. as far as i'm concerned it's just yet another utterly predictable lowest common denominator vapid laugh-tracked shitfest. it's not remarkable in any way, shape or form. this sort of completely forgettable crap gets churned out by the metric ton, year in year out, by broadcasters both sides of the pond. |

yes... it\'s predictable, shows like this usually are, but it\'s still funny if you ask me. good actors pulling of funny characters. that makes up for a lot in a show like this. |
