Review of Back

Back (2017– )
4/10
Predictable and boring, but has potential
9 September 2017
Predictable jokes, a boring plot and some dull side characters, the first episode of this Channel 4 sitcom was a turgid disappointment. There were some laughs, however, and Mitchell and Webb play their roles quite well, so there is room for improvement, and hopefully we're just off to a shaky start, and will kick into a higher gear as the show progresses.

Two brilliant lines about vinyl and cancer, but some dodgy stuff with dogs and aeroplanes. Mitchell is the best thing about this show, and Webb plays a snarky, hate-able git extremely well. For whatever reason.

One joke was ripped from David Mitchell's Soapbox, the YouTube series, and it was done much better on there.
