The 'Two Pints Of Lager And A Packet Of Crisps Is Shite' Thread

[anfield]

Any comedy set in Runcorn is ok by me. Two Pints is everything Hollyoaks should be, but isn't. Saw it last night on BBC3 - loadsa laughs.

I was about to set a thread asking who likes this utter unfunny drivel, but rightly suspected that someone would have beat me to it on here.

I have often wondered who watches it, as someone must do if it keeps coming back, but i have never met one person who would admit to it.

The girl who writes it has just been given another show as well, for fuck's sake.

I've been saying for years that it's the worst non-reality show on British television. I'm happy that at least a few people agree.

And it's not just because it's shite. There have been a lot of shite TV shows. It's because they keep on making more of them!!!!!

I'm glad this thread wasn't put in the music forum

Once I wrote to the BBC for a pack about 'becoming a writer' and they invited me to a seminar, hosted by the writer of 'Two Pints...'. Can you believe that?! Needless to say, I didn't attend - although I did flirt with the idea of firebombing the backstage area.

[BadlyDrawnGirl]

I've only ever seen it once and I'm afraid I thought it was utter drivel.

Never really watched 2POL&APOC but anything I've seen of it made me think absolutely nothing whatsoever. It just passed me by. It is all over BBC3 every night it seems, along with the disgrace to "comedy" that is Little Britain.

The Smoking Room I quite like in a fairly non-committal sort of way. Robert webb is a great comedy actor, as Peep Show shows.

Off the top of my head the only two new BBC comedies I've liked recently are the Keith Barratt Show and The Thick Of it.

2 Pints

Comic portrayal of working class life at it's best

Sarcasm....

 

[oisleep]

[Ryazan]

I don't.

 

[oisleep]

never mind, you can watch something else on the small tv in the bedroom

 

[Ryazan]

I don't have a small TV in my bedroom. I don't have a TV in my bedroom.

 

[oisleep]

neither do i

 

[Ryazan]

So why the assumption that I do?

 

[oisleep]

don't turn everything into a scrap, was a turn of phrase

 

[Ryazan]

Not scrapping matey.

 

[oisleep]

don't even have a bedroom at the moment, let alone a telly to put in it!
