Thought I'd give this show a go tonight given the previous comedy the pair have done. This show was unfunny, unoriginal and cringeworthy. It was embarrassing to watch actually. Won't be watching it again. Anyone watch it and thought it was good?

fatherpierre

Tonight was one of the better ones.

I thought it was ok with a few good bits.

I've watched it a few times, and as you say, it's just not in the same league as the rest of their stuff.

There only seemed to be two or three different jokes in the whole programme, repeated endlessly. Mind you, Big Suze was looking good.

fatherpierre

Big Suze........................

Worth watching just for her lol

Er...i thought it was quite good.Think most comedy has been done before,so finding an original concept must be quite difficult.
Compared to most brit comedy nowadays,its worth a look.Thought monkey dust from a few years ago,was the most original comedy for a long time,but thats gone now.
Theres not much choice out there.Whats the alternative,that pile of chod-Two pints of lager and a packet of crisps?

fatherpierre

Still better than the cack Little Britain that's on now. Re-hashed stuff that was rubbish in its 1st incarnation.

The multi lingual footy manager cracks me up.

Dan Gleebits

watched about 2 mins of it then chucked the remote over to the other half..
Gotta be worth a few brownie points ?

fatherpierre

That was a bad Little Britain!

I forced myself to watch it so I can sit here and type how **** it was lol

I saw the last five mins... It was a lot better than Little Britain USA

That was total pap and Im not sure how well it went down in the US. ??
Cant see it being there cuppa tea

I caught the last 15 mins of Harry & Paul whilst waiting for little Britian USA..

Harry and Paul - not funny apart from Whitehouse doing that bloke in Dragons Den..the baldy bloke who sees them after they have faced the dragons... I do admit to a snigger at that

Little Britiain USA - I read a article in the paper that said most US critics panned it.. was a bit poor tbh.. some amusing bits, but not many.

fatherpierre

Well if most US critics panned it, I've changed my mind.

Comedy genuis

Al Murray on now. Quite funny..... thus far.

This show compared to what they've managed to do before is really bad. I've never really been a Little Britain fan. Originality in a comedy show isn't required as long as what you're producing is funny. This isn't.

Even Benidorm trounces Harry and Paul for laughs!

little-ginge

I think Benidorm is cracking

little-ginge

the thing is they dont get the english sense of humor so they wouldnt like it ....I do like the way they take the **** out of the yanks..

fatherpierre

Comedy died when Bo Selecta ended - not including their USA attempt, that was rubbish.

mamoon2

Agreed! Although the last series just wasn't as good as the others and he has struggled with his other programmes since (Keith Lemon).

<mel b> Ooooh You *******s </mel b>

Don't think anyone can get near Sacha Baron Cohen for originality. First with Ali G, yeah its a bit daft now looking back at it but back then it was genius. Then to come back with Borat, which was even funnier. and now coming out with a new film with the Bruno character. The guy is a comedy genius

funniest sketchs on Harry and Paul for me were:-

40-45 years (had me in tears)

the father and son builders with bit of 4 x 2bies!!!! also a lol moment.

and the "saw you coming" shop which also makes me laugh.

the blokes fishing also rank up there.


the rest, IMHO is complete toss

WRX_Dazza

every time i hear whacko jacko on the radio i think of him lol

heeee heeeee, shamone, mother****er !!! check my bad self, oooooooowww!

NotoriousREV

I did like the boutique grocers.

"Are those apples organic?"

"At that price they should be. But they're not"

Abdabz

Alas, it is pants - utter pants... The surgeons sketches are pitiful. I actually feel sorry for them. Imagine all that time writing, rehearsing, having the rubber face and make up put on only to be as funny as a rectal bleed...

It's all about knowing when to stop, knowing when to do "The Cantona" or "The Fawlty Towers" and alas, Harry and Paul don't.

STi-Frenchie

Watched Harry and Paul followed by Little Britian and managed to smirk once in a whole hour. What a waste of time.

That On the Buses sketch was totally pointless. Dragon's Den bloke with the cross eyes was what made me smirk...but overall agree with this comment:

"40-45 years (had me in tears)

the father and son builders with bit of 4 x 2bies!!!! also a lol moment.

and the "saw you coming" shop which also makes me laugh."

as the best of their lot.

Little Britain is just a complete dead loss....and the audience laughter makes it even worse.
