  • Started up slow, but I'm loving the second part of the season!

    It built up slow in the beginning, but by the end I was really loving this. The scene where Matt confesses to Sean about Beverly is great, it makes me laugh every time.

    There's still some "Joey" in there - for real and for poking fun at - but Matt is a lot more complex. I like that there's a bit of an edge to him and it's not all goofy kindness or plain superficial evil. I'm watching the last episode and I don't know how it's gonna end, but I'm curious about the next season ;)moreless
  • One of the best sitcom around at the moment. Can improve, worth watching!!! :)

    I love this show. In my opinion Matt LeBlanc run the show but other actors are good too. Matt is awesome. More screen time for Matt will make and keep this show in top for sure. Series has been renewed by Showtime and BBC for the second season of nine episode. There is still so much to come. Can't judge more about... But not funnier than F.R.I.E.N.D.S.. Can improve :D
  • I gave the 1st season a shot, and it wasn't worth my time.

    "Abysmal"
    The 1st 5 episodes were mildly entertaining. Matt Leblanc acting like himself is such a novel idea. Its funny that you can getting an award for acting like yourself. His character was a flawed but likable character until they destroyed it when he sleeps with his best friends wife. At that moment I was done with this show. Why do they ruin likable characters with this nonsense. Beverly is no better. Lets see, 3 main characters, 2 of them are complete scumbags. Fail!moreless
  • Great show, British humor meets American fun.

    Okay, so there's no real curse upon the Friends alumni, but one might argue not all was good after that show ended. Well, I admit I needed some time to warm up to 'Joey', but in the end I liked it. With that being said you cannot compare it to 'Episodes', and that is defnitely a good thing, because it has way more depth and also humor then 'Joey'.

    I'm neither American nor British, but I have always had a big soft spot for British humor, and that is what carries this show along. But of course there's also American humor, and in my opinion they really work perfectly together here. And I gotta admit, I like the occasional vulgarity too, brings a whole lot more realism to the table.

    As for the leads, it's great fun to see Matt LeBlanc play himself along with being dirty and using the F-word every once in a while. As for Tamsin Greig and Stephen Mangan, they're absolutely hilarious. And people who think she hasn't got any comedic timing, well, you should get your eyes ar even your brain checked, because she's just perfect. I also come to like Kathleen Rose Perkins a lot, so for me the cast is just great.

    With all that being said I admit I cannot quite see where the show is going if there should be another and maybe a third season, but that's also the fun in it, not knowing what happens.

    I do hope though that Showtime will hang on to 'Episodes' and give it a chance.

    Great show!moreless
  • I love it! its such a great refreshing show.

    "Perfect"
    Oh man! This is the first classy well acted comedy in ages!Ive seen both the first and second episode, and i just love it. Yes, it dosent have that enoying machine laughter thingy that goes on after avery stupid remark. It is much more subtle, soft and well thought. Its both so wonderfully funny and disturbing at the same time, it makes you want to laugh but at the same time it makes you hesitate, you dont know if it is appropriate or not. Like the whole scene from where Matt decides he wants the part and he goes all smooth and cunning on them. He plays that so well, and her reaction when he ask if she can act, i had to see that over and over again. The big thing with this comedy is that it is not forcing it self on you, with joke after joke after joke, like most comedies does, almost desperate for approval. It feels so natural and cool. The actors are not archetypes, they feel unusual and exiting. Well i hope you will be able to see it, and i hope the american public will able to appreciate it, but i doubt it.moreless
