What's wrong with me? I don't find The Thick Of It funny

Watching it now it's pretty good but Spinners and Losers is better and shows this show will do well without Langham (who quite frankly really doesn't need to be there for the show to be great).
On the strength of 'Nutters', I'd have to disagree. Perhaps not Langham himself, but Hugh - one foot in the spin, one foot out, slightly bored, gaff-prone - added that extra Office-esque comedy of embarrassment ingredient. On its own, that genre's rather tired now, but around sharp-tongued, sweary powermongers it's brilliant. It was that blend I enjoyed.

Looking forward to the other special, though.
 
Spinners is better but nutters is needed because it sets it all up brilliantly. The insanity in Spinners is fucking funny. Imo they should re-orientate the whole show around Tucker, he's clearly the best thing in it!
