Simply A Masterpiece

Good movie, but best of all time? Hardly . . .

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Flat TV is my favorite series of this last five years, I miss it so much and hope to be back this year. The British way to make television is well adored by millions all over the world and everybody knows it. I'm "BRITISHED" so many years ago and use to follow all series and movies and simply adore them. The Britished way to create characters and situations can be faked but never wins. There's a special way to be about the British people and a special way to make comedy just to last forever. A seal, a British sealed way to perform and every country in the wHole world has it, maybe, but, the excellence goes to them. British COMEDY IS THE BEST

Tom Rosenthal is brilliant in this, just as he is in 'Friday Night Dinner'. The concept of the show is clever, and contains spoofs of many television shows, including The Only Way is Essex. Tom's multiple characterizations are well done.For a first series, it was extremely well done. Hopefully there will be a second series where we will see more of the same characters, and develop it further. Americans may not understand the humour, but we Aussies certainly do!All in all, a very watchable, entertaining, funny show. So far, anything Tom does is amazing!

Strong writing that kept me in hysterics the whole episode. Really innovative concept that means it stays engaging the whole series. Sitcom format meshed with interesting reflections on the impact of online and media culture, and its affect on the way people perceive their own experiences and interactions, as well as the constant buzzing and computing of the mind. Perfect casting, and acting, including great cameo-style parts from actors who starred in Phoneshop and Bad Education. A golden nugget of 30-minute comedy. One of the best BBC comedy shows for a while, in my opinion. Come for Rosenthal, stay for the facial expressions and gags.

Series 1 of Flat TV was fantastic. Well-written, well-acted, well-executed. Conceptually, the idea of the sitcom is innovative. Though based around a classic sitcom situation (2 flatmates, the girl next door to impress, etc.), a fourth-wall-breaking TV self-parody unlike that seen before pushes it to another level. The spoofs and impressions were very decent, and there is so much more potential to be explored with the Flat TV format, with a wealth of TV or film genres that have yet to be touched. A greater level of character development/relationship building is needed to push it to a 10 in my books, but for a first series of a sitcom, it had a good range of characters, a high gag density and something unique it is bringing to the table.
