The set up includes Danny Avidan, who people may recognise as Not-So-Grump (Game Grumps) and Ross O'Donovan who make a fantastic duo. Starts off slow and shaky but later episodes in the series really make for some hysterical moments. Not quite as easy to get into as Game Grumps, but Grumps fans will be accepting.

Reduced to working as an extra with a useless agent, Andy's attempts to boost his career invariably end in failure and embarrassment.Wonderfully quirky sitcom which see's Ricky Gervais play Andy Millman, a film extra desperate to break into the world of acting. Ashley Jensen is particularly cute in this as Andy's only friend Maggie Jacobs, a naive, hopeless romantic. Extremely funny cameos from Daniel Radcliffe, Patrick Stewart and Kate Winslett are all the more reason to watch.
- StarsSimon BirdJames BuckleyBlake HarrisonFollows four friends and their antics during their final years of school.Comedy about four friends trying to live through secondary school. Excellent piece of writing in this and brilliantly performed by its cast, who gel so well together that it truly is a shame when you finally get to the series finale in Series 3. James Buckley is especially funny as raunchy, sex-obsessed virgin Jay Cartwright who exasperates his friends with various unbelievable lies.

Although Gervais and Merchants comments can jar, Pilkington's observation and comments are funny enough to stick it out.
