... View MoreIf you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
... View More2DTV. This, and the Champions League were probably the only reasons why I wasted any time watching ITV.Funny dialogue, a warped sense of humour and the ability of the 2DTV team to knock these episodes out the same day as major events unfolded is the reason why I made the effort to watch it.Nothing, it seemed was out of bounds: The US, Iraq War, the British Government, the royal family, The Osbournes, Harry Potter, football, soaps, reality TV, celebrities, Al Qaeda, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict... Basically anything that hit the headlines, made it into the show and to hilarious effect.Although the episodes tended to be only 15 minutes long (and as such, could be easily lost amongst the dreary reality shows ITV usually churned out at 10pm), there was usually never a moment when the show lost it's pace.The animation was more functional rather than polished, and some of the voices were sometimes off the mark, but neither of these things really detracted from the script itself. The political bias may put some people off, but it's worth persevering even if it's only to see the celebrity gags.Certainly one to rent/buy on DVD.
... View MoreThis is one of the best satirical impression shows I've ever seen, especially because the animation and voice talents combined both make the impressions work. The voice talents include (from Dead Ringers) Jon Culshaw and Jan Ravens. These two are probably my favourite of the series of impressionists. Basically they listen to latest news and make it into the joke with the help of the animated celebrities. Jon Culshaw does some of the best characters including: President George Bush, Tony Blair, Bill Gates, David Beckham, Mark from EastEnders, Robbie Williams, George Michael, Hugh Grant, Michael Barrymore, Dale Winton, Liam Gallagher and many more. Jan Ravens basically does all the females, these include: Geri Halliwell, Victoria Beckham, Dot Cotton, Barbara Windsor, Delia Smith, Nigella Lawson, Cheri Blair, Sigourney Weaver, The Queen, Anne Robinson and many more. It was nominated The British Comedy Award for Best New TV Comedy. It was number 52 on The 100 Greatest Cartoons. Good!
... View MoreWhen 2DTV came to our screens it was fresh and satirised all the weeks major events as well as a few misc sketch's' as fillers. the voices were great, although that should have been expected since 2DTV used the voices of the great team from dead ringers.But recently with the four series the writing has gone down hill. while still scathingly in its satire some sketch's seem half thought through and lacking any sense of the situation, with particular reference to the Arnie sketch's. also the lose of the dead ringers team of voices has meant that the near perfect impersonations that the dead ringers team brought are gone and replaced with voices which still sound like the characters yet never as good as the previous teams take on the characters. the parts of both Tony Blair and George W. Bush are 2 great examples of how the new team of voices are not up to the job, Jon Culshaw who used to provide these voices, had them to a t.yet despite my criticism the show is still great and when on it is the only reason to watch ITV1.enjoy
