The IT Crowd Season 2 thread

[Corris Veteran]

I thought it was thoroughly entertaining, and was great to see Richmond the goth again! :D

I just watched it, liked it a lot. Can't wait for the other episodes, it's one of the only british shows I can watch.

[FreqFace]

I'll have to check out this series... sounds pretty good.

the US series might be funny... i'll have to wait and see. remember NegaC, the US version of The Office is wildly popular here. it's definitely one of my favorite shows. I've watched the british version many times over, but honestly, the US version is better.

you Brits get me all confused when you talk about the "series". :p We call it a season. Here, a series refers to the whole show itself.

I refer to them as seasons when talking about American shows that have alot (20-30) of episodes per season (ie. Simpsons), but I say series when talking about Brit shows that often have only 6-8 shows per series (ie. IT Crowd). Bit confusing.. meh.

Anyway, while the US office is good in it's own right, it's just not the same as the original Office. It's very 'Americanised', not necessarily a bad thing but it just hasn't got the same humour and subtleties the original Office had. I wouldn't say either one is better than the other.

I suppose it could work but as is the case with The Office, it won't be the same show anymore. To be honest, I see it going the way the US Red Dwarf did.. *shudder*.

Been waiting for this to come back for a second series, hilarious show :D

British humour is such an acquired taste that many foreigners completely miss most of the irony and subtleties, which are the best bits!

The more I experience life, the more I realise the truth of this statement. A US version of the Office ? Oh dear.

Luckily a mate taped the first episode of this new season of the IT Crowd, so I'll be able to see it tomorrow as soon as I can get the video from him ! :D

I had that thought when they announced the American Office and I thought it was suck more then Paris Hilton but its now such a big success I thought wrong so an American IT Crowd could be good.

I watched it, never saw series 1. Pretty funny, but the black dude with the big hair. Was he not EXACTLY the same in that Garth Merenghi thing? Can the dude just not act?

I just watched it and it was really funny especially when he was in the wheelchair and with the bar glasses :D

i understand that, and i certainly get the jokes. The Office UK is hilarious... i love it. but the outward humor of The Office US is still much better. unfortunately american's cant process the subtle UK jokes b/c theyre always waiting for the big punch line. are you surprised though? it's an attention span sort of thing. figures doesnt it :rolleyes:

[NeoLoser404]

Anyone found a way for US members to watch this really cool tv series?

[Lt-DavidW]

I enjoyed this episode and laughed throughout, but could not help cringing at the final scene where Moss accidentally smashes the bar glasses.

[ultimate99]

are there any sex scenes in these seasons?:p

i'm serious...

[sharpy2k4]

just watched it on 4OD, i thought it was hilarious! laughing all the way through and thought it was really good

"How are you?"

"I'm Disabled"

cracked me up everytime that was mentioned

[CPressland]

That was such a funny episode!! Cant wait for the next one. The part that made it more funny is the guy i'm working for at the moment contracted me to build a Gay website! lol. everything is Gay on channel four at the moment!! lol

I just love the look on her face when Moss is behind the bar.

[-Alex-]

I got that by loading up 4OD on an XP PC, right-clicking the stream, and choosing Properties. It's in there.. means I can watch 4OD on my Mac :)

This weeks was so funny...its like watching Darth Merenghi again with 90% of the cast in IT Crowd :laugh:

[sharpy2k4]

Very funny episode on Friday haha

"make them a cup of tea" <opens window....>

hahah loving this series

[Kriz]

The first two episodes of the new series have been unbelievably funny.. The addition of Matt Berry is genius, sad to see Chris Morris go though.

Rappy, its Garth Marenghi.. But Darth Merenghi is a good idea for a comedy star wars sitcom..
