Peep Show

Post by Dunners »

Apparently it is 20 years old. 20! How did that happen?

I gather it was not everyone's cup of tea, but I found it funny.

20 years! Great times for the likes of Dunnem and myself who first watched during our GCSE year.

One of the only modern comedies I found very funny , probably as plausible. Very well written and a kind of ‘dumber and dumber’ . Unique for certain.

Peep Show had a charm allowing of its own; the female characters were good in it, too.

Who remembers the big poster ads for it in the East Stand as you went from undercroft to the stand? Didn't watch it when it was new but a work colleague got me hooked

"you're never alone with a phone" 😆

Friday night Channel 4 comedy Peep Show, IT Crowd, Inbetweeners. Good times.

I showed one of the guys in work this clip the other day after needing to take down a 42" screen as it's deemed not big enough for seriously looking at documents on!

When watching Peep Show I always felt that I was the only person watching it - hence "peep show".

Mark growing his tash in homage to Johnson is priceless.

Genuinely funny reflections of sharing a flat in London in the early 2000s.

Brilliant characters as others have said. Loved Big Suze and Super Hans. I’ve met many people like him - who did far too many drugs in the 90s - in my job and some are carbon copies. They’re a certain type of special individual in a world where most people are so vanilla.

The actor who plays him smashes it.

Chance would be a fine thing.

A fine thing indeed.
