This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

I don't have a clue where the negative reviews are coming from with this show. If you like some the random older comedies like Garth Merengies Dark Place, Spaced and The League of Gentleman. I think you will love this. I played a few episodes in my living room and everyone was in stitches laughing at the thing.------Spoilers below------It's aimed at the British public and has little digs at the elements of our culture that have become big for no explainable reason. For example. X-factor is mocked in the first show to good effect. Another episode makes Jamie Oliver come across as a little un-hinged and aggressive which works for the humour as its random and out of character.I can understand the comparisons to South Park/Simpson/Family Guy etc. But that is only because its an animation, with a family, and the comedy is a little edgy. That's it in terms of similarities. As a previous reviewer said. It reminds me a little of the old spitting image show, as famous characters mannerisms are overly emphasised. Jamie Oliver as a swearing loud mouth cockney, the queen having a "sexually adventurous" youth, Richard Branson being over ridiculous with his money. etc etc. There is also occasional subtle things you have to keep an eye out for that can cause giggles. E.G. When ever we cut to see Ant and Dec on X factor in the first episode they are holding hands/about to kiss/having a secret relationship.To me and my friends, the show works. I think it failed because it was shown to early in the evening on TV. The upper-classes stumbled across it and as it pokes fun and points out the holes in a few things they consider "entertainment". It was shot down before it had a chance to get anywhere. The review in the Guardian was particularly critical after the first episode and that was one of the better episodes in my opinion. If it was shown a little later I think it would have avoided this negative response and would have been given the opportunity to gain momentum. Family Guy/South Park/Simpsons are good but we all have moments when some jokes are aimed at the Americans and everyone else watching just looks at each other and shrugs their shoulders. It was nice to have a similar style show in England where everything was for us. Hope it gets a DVD release at least so we can see the last un-aired episode. I'm giving it a 9 of 10 as it is good (But nothings perfect). Everything has room for improvement. But as it is, it more than successful at making me laugh.

Full EnglishI think it is really funny, its worth at least a 6 in my opinion and definitely worth watching if your into adult cartoons such as family guy or south park. It also reminded me of the old classic, "spitting image" in a way because of the real life character's that appear in it (that aren't actually supposed to be depicting real life character's) but are ! and they are portrayed very well too!basically I would compare it to family guy but for me not quite as good, as daft or as funny, although it can be a kind of ruder humor which is always a bonus!verdict almost as funny as Family Guy. lowest I can give it is a 6/10

First impressions are that it is clichéd and derivative. Being self-admittedly ''rude, puerile and silly'' sounds more like an excuse for bad writing and a lack of any actual humour. The characters are either lazy copies or one dimensional, with at least one who could become quite annoying very quickly. It tries to emulate the styles of Family Guy et al and fails miserably with unoriginality and little sense. It might be worth watching to see how badly it continues to be written for those interested in comedy writing, as its flaws are legion. But how this got past anyone to be commissioned is truly worrying.

There is quite a lot of hate for this cartoon after 1 episode, which i find hard to believe as the show has only aired one episode so far and is only in its infancy. I must state i am a huge family guy and American dad fan, so naturally was excited by this programme although not as good as the previously mentioned shows it has very good moments and it shows a lot of potential and i don't think it should be badly reviewed after 1 episode, i'm going to give it at least 3 episodes before committing to my early opinion of the show. I must say there where numerous moments in the show which made me laugh. the pushing the boundaries element to the show which i loved (family guy does it well) and would like to see more u.k shows attempt it (of course i'm talking about the queen scenes) i hope this show lasts and people give it a chance i don't like the way some shows are cancelled before they're given the chance they deserve. a few more episodes will show weather this is a fail or a success.
