Peep Show
Posted by Rod in Old-blog-archives at 10:08 am on Monday, 29 November 2004

Noticed the TV4 comedy Peep Show when I was in the UK.  Brought the Series 1 DVD when flying out. 

Recommended if you like English Humour.  Review from Amazon:

Welcome to the private world of Jeremy and Mark – two very ordinary weirdos. Peep Show is the innovative comedy series from Channel 4 seen through the eyes of the core characters. In an inventive twist, their inner thoughts and feelings can be heard – whether they be dark, stupid or embarrassingly over-blown. Wannabe popstar Jeremy (Robert Webb) is a lazy man with big ideas, mostly about himself. He has been thrown out by his ex ‘Big Suze’ and has ended up living with Mark (David Mitchell), his old friend, who has a completely different no-pain-no-gain view of the world. Socially dysfunctional in their different ways, Mark and Jeremy have an unhealthy reliance on one another – a dependence that can turn to frustration. And to further complicate their existence, Mark – in his cack-handed way – is in pursuit of the love of his life, co-worker Sophie (Olivia Colman), while Jeremy lives in awe of his idiotic and manipulative mate Super Hans and their beautiful but brittle neighbour Toni.

    I got into this series shortly before I left the Uk also. It is one of the funniest around. Hanging out for a new series!
