Any of you watch this? Just finished all four seasons on Netflix. Fucking loved it.

Did 3 seasons in about 2 weeks, if that. Once 4th came out it took me no time to finish that :)

Great show. They tried a US spinoff, pretty sure it lasted like 2 episodes.

i had no idea about the us version.

one of the things i like about it is that even though there's nerd humor in it, you don't have to be a nerd to appreciate it. kinda like you don't have to be a new yorker to appreciate the new york jokes in seinfeld. plus, there's an entire episode with a sub-plot that involved cradle of filth!

fucking sea parks episode makes me laugh so hard i cry. every time.

"laptop from the ex..... video. AHAHAHA That chick is a female version of me. AHAHAHAHA. That's awesome. NEW SHOW TO WATCH. I'll check that out. Does anyone else think it would be fucking awesome to call a vacation "holiday"? If I had millions I'd move to London and pretend to have a proper accent like Madonna did.

Seinfeld, I can't believe that got dropped in the same thread as the IT Crowd.

Friendface is a good episode. Then again all of them are. I might watch all 4 seasons again.

HA! you know what i mean though, right? It's not like this is just a comedy for people that are into technology.

not a fan of The I.T Crowd.
I think maybe it's because I work in I.T but I was hoping to relate to it in some way haha
It's just a bit too slapstick for me though and nowhere as dark as I'd imagined it would be given that Chris Morris (Brasseye/Nathan Barley/The Day Today) was involved.

Peep Show is the best UK comedy of all time.

yeah, it's definitely not highbrow comedy. it's not unlike The Old Guys in its simplicity. but in both cases, there's something about the characters and their delivery that kills me. maybe i'm just a closet Katherine Parkinson fan.

i've added peep show to the netflix queue.
