The IT Crowd - 12/12/08

[Tulin]

Another pretty solid good episode and this time the weird boss was ACTUALLY funny!!!

As it started my partner said to me, "Boy they are REALLY beefing him up aren't they?" And he didn't like it. By the end of the ep, however, he was laughing out loud.

We guessed that Jen's speech would be accepted by the non-tech head audience and it would backfire on Roy and Moss. I loved the completely over the top reaction of the crowd when Weird Boss and his gf "broke" the internet. That was classic!!!


Again, another solid funny episode in a good run this series. Any idea how many more eps there are to come?

 

[ITL]

There'll be two more.

Yeah, geat episode - Jen's speech was predictable, but funny - I love the Internet in a box! And I liked how Douglas jumped right back up into Fighting Mode after being knocked down - twice!

Matt Berry is brilliant! Love all the stuff he's done. But yes, this episode was a classic. Glad to see the show isn't declining in quality.

 

[Frodo Lives]

Without a doubt, one of the funniest episodes ever!

Douglas truly is one of the best characters on this show, fucking brilliant. And Richmond got scurvy!

"The Lord of the Rings..."

Best episode of the season so far. Douglas is getting more screen time, although it seems at the expense of Jen. It was a very predictable episode, however it had great execution, especially the shot of the harbinger of doom - the boy ripping the napkin!

Great stuff.

I actually thought Jen had a fairly decent amount of screentime this episode, what with the employee of the month stuff, her speech, attempted pep talk to the guys ("Am I mentally ill or something?"), she had quite a bit to do.

 

[Candlelight]

This week yes but the first three eps this season had her seperate from the rest of the cast on her own story (the builder, the magician, finding a new job). I guess I just prefer to see her working with the others like in previous seasons.

This reminded me totally of a Father Ted episode just in terms of the plotting and the characterization. Just replace "The Internet" with "Catholicism". Still, good times. At the very least, it makes me want to watch Father Ted again.

 

[Roshi]

The Internet doesn't weigh anything!

 

[Candlelight]

What does that flashing light do anyway? Maybe the elders will explain it one day.

 

[Frodo Lives]

If it's alright with The Hawk...

I've missed almost everything for the last couple of weeks, still being in hospital and everything, i think this'll be the first thing i watch when i get home. Sounds like a good episode.

 

[Candlelight]

What were you doing in hospital? Nothing serious I hope.

Sorry, haven't been keeping up with current events lately.

I hope things are okay. Nice to be out before Christmas, too.

This new series will lift your spirits if you are recuperating!

This one is my favourite this series so far. I wish they would do more than six even if it was 8.
Must go, meeting a girl from Iran...

 

[wamdue]

[Candlelight]

I'd like to see more of his characatures.

i'm still in hospital, making the occasional post from my phone to keep myself entertained. Wouldn't be serious if it wasn't for my existing heart and lung condition. I had to have my appendix out, with a huge team there in case anything should in wrong, the appendectomy took 3 hours and i was in around 6 days. Then after 2 days of being home and taking it easy the wound started pissing blood and i was rushed back in. They're hoping to to have to operate again, especially so soon, i'm supposed to find out this morning, so i'm nil by mouth right now and dying for a drink. Hence the long post trying to take my mind off it lol.

 

[Candlelight]

Not good, hope you're feeling better by the big day.
