This show was dismal at best. CGI, WOW, I guess the last three Star Wars movies showed you what good CGI and no storyline can achieve, disappointment all round. The CGI effects in this show are good if it was broadcast in 1997, but let's face facts, YOUTUBE has some better stuff to offer.
The sketches in this show were very weak and drawn out with no payoff, some of them were marginally humorous, but where's the quality of the old days ie. THE FAST SHOW. Not many BBC sketch comedies have hit the mark lately. LITTLE Britain really took the toilet humour to a whole new pathetic level and after the first season, went down hill faster than an Olympic snowboarder. MITCHELL & WEBB however was quite a clever show, with some intelligent sketches and overall was and hopefully still is a great series. Maybe it's the dumbing down of society that is making the BBC target it's comedy department to purile rubbish, we had the YOUNG ONES in our day, the kids today have THE MIGHTY BOOSH. The comparison... put it this way I still haven't laughed once while watching THE MIGHT BOOSH. Have both seasons, based on rave reviews, but found it to be as funny as a Royal Christening, The Wrong Door is even worse.
