Excellent adaptation.

It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

It is absolutely brilliant but one thing totally kills it.Canned laughter.The series affects reality/documentary style and the horrible canned laughter is so cringe worthy I actually found myself gritting my teeth.If there is a re-release of the series, PLEASE remove this utter horror. Without it, it would be nigh perfect. Really I can't concentrate on the dialogue because of it. It is truly terrible.It works perfectly for Monty Python's obviously staged tableau spoofs. It even works for say, Fawlty Towers which is really a filmed theatrical production in its essence.It simply DOES NOT WORK for I'm Alan Partridge!

I've had no previous experiences with Alan Partridge persona and I didn't know what to expect from this series. It was brilliant. I especially liked the episodes "To Kill A Mocking Alan" and "Watership Alan", the former had me in tears from laughing and that does not happen often. The writing is without a mistake, the characters are interesting and amusing and Alan is one ignorant, vain and rude little man - but that makes this series so fun to watch. Here in Croatia, Alan Partridge is fairly unknown - it's such a shame. I'll try to get my hands on other series that feature Alan's adventures.10/10

What can i say? Every line is pure gold and quotable. This is the best comedy series i ever watched Nothing can beat scenes like when Alan does his boot video and a cow is dropped on him. The way he says i m trapped under a cow. I could go on forever Whenever i am in a bad mood i get out my Alan partridge stuff and watch it and laugh my ass off every time. I think all the Sascha baron Cohen's and Ricky gervais owe so much to Alan partridge The influence this character had on the comedy scene is incredible and can t be overestimated. I am German and i English people thank you for giving me something that funny The German comedy scene is full of awfulness And everybody who hasn t watched this i can guarantee you that you will not regret it

Its no surprise, bearing in mind some other notable comedy creations, that a socially subnormal geek such as Partridge can be such a success. But this is due in no small part to Steve Coogan's whose timing and scripts have created more of an institution than a character. He is blunt, rude, naive and snobbish to name just a few of his characteristics but despite all this you can't help but like him. Supported with a wonderful cast who have started to mould great comic characters in their own right such as Lynn and Michael, the show never fails to make you laugh out loud every time, despite knowing exactly what is to come!
