How sad is this?

Better Late Then Never

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Some of the scenes are so awkward, normally when Kerry is involved it just hits my cringe buttons. The preciseness of Zoe is so sharp. Each episode is packed with so many different scenes. The super acting, facial expressions and identifiable characters draw you in. It manages to stay light even in scenes of murder, there is never a feeling of darkness, but a slightly quirky realism. I missed the starts with John Inverdale, I wish he could have been in more, that beard had me howling. Jackie, made the first series for me, well cast, acted, in all a superb comedy.Possibly a slow burner from the point of recognition and publicity as few people seems to have heard of it despite it being so good. Great one from the BBC.

Witless has been the best BBC comedy of the past 5 years - superlative writing, acting and characterization, grounded in a strong sense of place. It's been a joy to follow, and never jumped the shark - it was always ambitious and kept growing and changing, expanding the canvas each series. I will genuinely miss Rhona and Leanne. The finale wrapped everything up in a clever, warm and incredibly satisfying way; I was in tears of happiness by the final scene. I've rarely seen a straightforward crime/detective series wrapped up with such intelligent writing and attention to character, let alone a comic one. Thanks in no small part to this outstanding finale, the series stands up tremendously as a whole - a thrilling, funny, moving televisual comic novel told that tells a complete story from start to finish. The conclusion left me elated, wistful, contemplative and feeling like I've "witnessed" something special. Thanks to the writers and cast for their stellar work. Hope there'll be a DVD!

As with every show from the UK, the humor and pace here are a bit different than what I'm used to from American shows, but it got me hooked from episode one. It's quirky, it's different, and it's also funny. It doesn't beat around the bush much, sometimes the humor gets dark, but if you enjoy UK comedies, this should be right up your alley.I'd say the show isn't for everyone, but I myself sure do enjoy it and I'll be pouting at how short the season is going to be (so short ;<).The plot progresses at a fast pace and I'm glad they didn't go with some problem-of-the-week structure. Things change episode to episode and I sure didn't expect that from a comedy. But I approve wholeheartedly!

Synopsis: Having witnessed a crime, 2 ordinary women find themselves on the right side of the law, but on the lamb none the less. ( How's my cockney idiom? It's been a while since I saw Minder.) Since watching the program, I've looked up the pedigree of the writers and was unsurprised to find they have, in the past, produced work I've really enjoyed. This series is spot on: the women in the leads are bright, vivacious, beautiful, and their comedic timing is perfect. The supporting cast, many of whom I hope will become regulars, are equally adroit. At the time of writing the next episode is going to air tomorrow evening, if you're reading this before that time I'd be catching the first episode shortly before hand to give myself a double treat on 29/04/2016. Well worth watching. I'm entirely confident this show will maintain a bullet fast momentum, set in the first episode.
