Review of Jam

Jam (2000)
mmmm...astonishing sod-ache
16 July 2000
I used to go to sleep to episodes of 'Blue Jam' on the radio due to its laid-back style- I challenge anyone to do this with the TV version! The sketches that are shocking or disturbing equal those that are funny in number, the opening of episode four in particular being the ultimate bad trip. Some sketches do push the limits of acceptability, e.g. the rape sketch and the various abortion/cot-death sketches. However, the writing, acting and direction are first-rate, and anyone who is interested in experimental television would do well to see this.
