'Miranda' BBC2 comedy series

[sleaterkinney]

I'm male and I find her really irritating, don't think it's a class thing, more a sense of humour one(it is supposed to be a comedy, isn't it?)

 

[boohoo]

Nah. I thought it was shite and I love Vic and Bob.

Unless I'm a boy?

I imagine if you knew someone like that in real life, she would start to get on your nerves quickly.

 

[editor]

Some of it's quite funny. Not great, but there's the odd chortle in there.

 

[kropotkin]

'chortle'

 

[editor]

'chortle'

That's correct. Chortle.

 

[boohoo]

IF they cut the canned laughter, less of the falling over and a little less talking to camera, it would be better. i'll let them keep their end credits. The third episode was weaker than the other two - Last weeks one was good..

 

[Clair De Lune]

It wasn't amazing but it did make me laugh in places.

 

[boohoo]

See, this is my point, some "comedy" just doesn't make me laugh at all - I might break a smile and that's it, whereas some of this is funny.

this, mildly amusing but not particularly clever. She does a good comedy fall.

It reminded me why I don't watch the BBC. The end credits were horrible. Peter Davidson was the best thing in it.

 

[Clair De Lune]

I think I relate to her tall gawkiness
I am not that into slapstick stuff but her falling over did crack me up.

 

[Strumpet]

Watching it now. Not making me guffaw but it's making me smile in places.

Same here. Not necessarily an endorsement, but certainly better than plenty other modern British attempts at sitcoms.

 

[Strumpet]

I just chortled when Miranda pushed her friend over behind the counter of the shop. Slapstick


I will update if I laugh again

 

[Strumpet]

"I look like I've had chiffon based anaphylactic shock" <<*chortle*

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

Did your missus go to public school?

She went to a school for perhaps the poorest members of the public living in Tokyo.

2x lols in 30 minutes?

 

[El Sueno]

I dipped in and I swear I heard the word 'shit', bold as brass, pre-9pm.

Was it from the studio audience?

[moonsi til]

I like it and it makes me giggle but the end credits make me cringe.

I laughed hard when she threatened to shit on the towels.

I didn't know it had been on the radio or heard of the lead before (Miranda Hart). I'm female and I don't generally laugh when people fart.

I laughed hard when she threatened to shit on the towels.

See, I knew I heard the word 'shit'! It made me chuckle a bit too.

 

[krtek a houby]

She's a funny person but I don't really get the show. Mind you, that sci-fi "comedy" she was in was drivel, too.

 

[Epico]

She's likeable presence, but I didn't find a single thing funny.

 

[vogonity]

I like her and I find the programme funny. I'm a bloke and I feel like I'm letting the side down...

 

[El Sueno]

Yeah, wtf was that about - had Nick Frost, Kevin Eldon n'that in it but it was utter shite!

Miranda

Does anyone else love this, like really love it to the point where I sometimes watch the repeat as well if I notice it's on. I'm not quite sure why, I think it's the relentness un-funniness of it. I used to love Not going out, for the same kind of reason. I just think it's brilliant.
