Yes, I think he's pretty phwoar too! ;)

Love Green Wing.
Neither him nor Guy compare with the young radiology bloke. The one who buys his boss in the auction,then shouts 'I BOUGHT YOU! FOR 30P!' in the middle of the restaurant :D

What the fuck was that silver balloon thing he flew into his office? Not that i want to try something similar on my boss....
 
The Dr Statham and blonde-doctor-homo-tongue (I don't know his bloody name) storyline is my favourite. I love the way it ends up.

By the by, Guy is definitely the sexiest one. :cool:

3 words for you: Donkey from Shrek. :p
 
What EVAH.
(Poor Stephen Mangan. :( )

Better than being a ginger old lady (Mac), or indeed, a vole.
 
I've not watched it in ages, and I've just caught a repeat - starting to wonder whether it's the same programme I found funny before?! :confused:
 
Scrubs is subtley different.

Green Wing is completely BARKING mad - and I love, LOVE, LOVE it.

And I love Mac too :D

Awa' an shite, you people who cannot appreciate the pure genius of Green Wing :p
 
I like Green Wing alot, and I don't know if it's just me, but the surreal bits don't really work for me, also the slow motion thing they use is irritating :(

Mac is hot though. :)
 
I prefer the non surreal bits too, actually. But I don't mind them. It's an hour long, so there's still plenty of character and plot-y bits too.

Mac is the hottest bloke on telly atm :o
 
Bump

Friday on Colin and Edith 1-3 on Radio 1 , they have Mac and Guy in....

Ooh cant wait to see the webcam pics ;)

*sloshes off*
 
I've tried but failed to get into this show. The 'surreal' bits are just throwaway absurdities, it's like the script was the product of brainstorming, backslapping stoner students. And seeing the three guys interviewed on some drivelly T4 interlude the other day just made me think they were the three most smug and unfunny cunts I'd ever seen.

I think it's one of those love it or loathe it things. I think it's the funniest thing in years.

However, I just don't get The Office or Seinfield and many seem to think them the greatest comedies every written.

Oddly, I wasn't crazy about The Office when it first came out. It just seemed like a cheap vehicle for Gervais' controversial social meanderings. But watching them again, I have to admit they're well crafted, brilliantly exectued slices of comedy. But Green Wing... I almost say 'wankers' out loud whenever I think of it. I guess there could be one sketch in there that could swing me completely but I just don't know if I can stomach a whole show to see if I'm right or not.
 
That's the thing. It seems to be one of those shows that get you on the second or third watch. And perhaps rightly, some people can't be arsed.
I hated it the first time I watched it, but was obsessed by the third episode.

I really hated the adverts for it, but the first show I saw I loved. Everything about it is great - the scipts, the way it's filmed and the casting is down to a tee. The guest actors are great aswell last two repeats have seen Steve Merchant and "the actor" Kevin Eldon. Bring on Friday.

:eek:
you do know it isn't sketch comedy right?

it couldn't be further from sketch comedy...

part of the appeal is what happens to the charcters - it has quite a lot in common with something like teachers, really...
 
Re. The Office, I thought it was quite good but overrated nontheless. I'd have prefered it if they'd have based it primarily around Tim rather than Brent.

And sample line from GW's first series;
Woman whilst clothes shopping: "What about a hoody? Have you got a hoody?"
Man with her: "Er no, I'm circumcised."
:D

I heard it was written by getting all the guys to improv and then they kinda cobble the skits together to give the impression of continuity. Aren't there 'sketches' in there?

I'll agree it does seem to have a fair bit in common with Teachers - unfunny, overrated etc. :p

I'm almost convinced to give the new series a go though.

I've watched the repeats the last couple of nights, didn't think much of the first one I saw, or the start of the second one, but quite liked the bit at the end with the slave auction and the dates afterwards.

Maybe it is worth sticking with.
