red. Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 Does anyone else watch it? The new series has been great. Frankie Boyle, with his dark humour, is probably the star of the show for me.

Richard Hammond Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 Ive never watched any of the previous series but i started to watch the latest series because i like Dara and Frankie, its been a bit hit and miss for me, the bald guy and russel howard make me cringe with their bad jokes, i love Frankie though hes hilarious.

TheDogsBed Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 I think that without Frankie, this show would have been put to bed some time ago. It's a really tired and cheap format that has been done bigger and better elsewhere. But, I'm not sure my week would be as good without an injection of venom from Frankie Boyle. :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/651311-mock-the-week/#findComment-589582273 Share on other sites More sharing options...
what Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 Frankie is definitely the winner. "So you'll be back will you, Joker? Somehow, I don't think so." "Is it a bird, is it a plane? All I know is it's heading towards the World Trade Center." "Political correctness is a politically correct term in itself. Not many people know this, but it used to be called 'spastic gay talk'." And my personal fave from the series: "There is a vegetarian option - you can **** off." :laugh: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/651311-mock-the-week/#findComment-589582277 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loved the vegetarian one as well and his constant Kerry Katona digs.

Lt-DavidW Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 With funnier people. That's a matter of opinion. I personally think Paul Merton is funnier than the Mock the Week panel.

=NickJ= Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 It's basically an exact amalgamation of Whose Line Is It Anyway and Have I Got News For You. IMO the last series were some of the funniest episodes I have seen of any TV show ever, but the new series hasn't been the best. Frankie keeps reusing his old jokes from previous series' and the guests this week were rubbish. Bring back Michael McIntyre permanently I say.

I was also watching some old episodes on Dave and i would like to see Rory Bremner or Al Murray on the show again.

torrentthief Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 frankie is GOD, he's just hillarious, he's my hero. You guys should see the "too hot for tv" dvd, the things that werent allowed to be broadcast are on it, like the queen killing diana and other hardcore things, it nearly made me cry with laughter. Also the last ep of each series is the best bits + things that werent allowed to be shown. I hate the black woman guest, all she does is nigerian accent jokes, she's not funny but she must have been on about 6 times:( I dont like al murray he's just a loud mouth and not really funny tbh.
