No Tim Vine? I like the characters but where's Tim gone? No good without him or that dopey cleaner. JB4:08pm Fri 19 Apr
What do u mean Friends is awsome i got da boxset Me9:26pm Fri 5 Apr
Funny? I think so Ignore all negative comments why obviously have been written by someone who hates a laugh. Love Miranda? Same here, this is no disappointment - funny, sarcastic, brilliant. I seriously can't believe anyone would write such mean comments, conclusion: they are all aliens.
Go not going out! Hev x 5:59pm Tue 2 Apr
Funny? I don't think so That well known saying "sarcasm is the lowest for of wit" says its all. Thats all Lee Mack is about. doubletake11:11pm Mon 10 Sep
Keep it coming guys! The funniest show in years, packed full to the brim of clever one liners, bang, bang, bang, one after the other...brilliant, and look forward to more!! Jane es7:52pm Mon 10 Sep
Wonderful! Brilliantly funny and yes, it does take at least some vestige of intelligence to appreciate it. Jeremy T.3:42pm Fri 15 Jun

fecking amazing IT IS FECKING AMAZING joseph james4:18pm Wed 4 Jan
Have to say... ...that virtually all the comments saying this is awful are from people with only a remedial grasp of English. I think that says it all: if you're not very bright, you won't find this funny. Dave10:16pm Fri 11 Nov
marie Best programme ever All artists are very funny maz3:12pm Sat 6 Aug
2/10 this is NOT funny - lee mack is a decent standup but he fails big time with this and the pathetic looking tim character adds insult to an already tacky depressingly bad show ............6:33pm Wed 27 Jul
CANS OF IT Very BIG can of laffter!!!!!! brockle11:23pm Wed 29 Jun
I'm Staying In Joy to watch. Lee Mack's script input and comic background not to mention Tim Vine's fall guy role, one liners, and faultless timing make this unmissable for me.
The inter play/word play, double entendres, and the North/South humour divide are performed to a very high standard throughout the cast.
Comedy is subjective, however, as suggested before those who don't see the above should stick to something warm and friendly like The Vicar of Dibley, My Family or The Life of Riley....... Johnny D2:32pm Mon 23 May
LOVE/HATE A divided nation. Iv'e seen a lot lot worse.Remember Diner ladies, and don't forget that awful Miranda !! trigg2:49pm Fri 11 Feb
Rubbish This has to be the worst programme, ever. Get this off the air now5:42pm Thu 10 Feb

Great Fun Love Tim Vine and just good enjoyable fun. Magsie6:38pm Fri 4 Feb
Not funny What a awful program Jon Stewarts english cousin 2:01pm Wed 2 Feb
Gagging for more This is a very funny show - high gag rate and laugh upon laugh. The timing and bond between Lee Mack and Tim Vine is excellent. I can only imagine the people who don't find this funny prefer their comedy a little more sedate? Terry & June boxsets all round. Renko12:37pm Tue 1 Feb
Awful Show, Awful Writing, Awful Acting, Really Terrible This has to be the worst programme on TV. How it is not pulled i do not know. The writeing is so lazy and the punchlines of the jokes? Did they have leftover christmas crackers I hate this show5:09pm Fri 21 Jan
10 out of 10 (for me) Lee Mack is a great stand up comedian.
I am not usually a fan of the set-up sit-com, but this show works and i like it.
Of course the gorgeous Sally Bretton has no influence on my tuning in each week! Anyone for coffe?10:26am Sat 15 Jan
Bring back Miranda!! It's a great show, but not the same without her! Kentish maiden8:44pm Thu 13 Jan
One of the worst! This has to be one of the worst comedy programs on tv - basic set up, plots and jokes - I thought we moved away from the predictable canned laughter 10 years ago- ever line doesnt have to be a joke!!! jon Stewarts english cousin 9:44pm Tue 21 Dec
if you think Friends is good.... Don’t compare this to Friends. Friends have half of the top Hollywood scriptwriters on the show and its still crap. Its a soap opera with canned laughter. I defy anyone to laugh at it if the laughter was removed. It's bereft of jokes. Friends compared to this show is like the Monkeys compared to the Beatles!! People ony think Friend is any good because they’re on a daily drip feed of it. There’s not any time you can’t switch the TV on and Friends isn’t on. It’s the McDonalds of TV land. I’s cancerous rubbish!!! This show on the other hand IS FUNNY!! Hahahaha!!! Seinfelt8:53pm Tue 21 Dec
Not good There's just no acting. They stand around waiting for their lines. Somebody sets up a joke, Lee Mack delivers the punch line and then canned laughter. Over and over and over again.
I remember somebody saying Friends is good because every line is a joke or a lead-up to a joke. No, that's what this is and it's awful. Friends has something called 'storyline', and most lines contribute to it, and most are funny too. Tomid12:29am Fri 5 Mar
This is, without doubt; My favorite program - EVER! Hilary11:09pm Wed 23 Dec
Really Why has this got such a high rating? It has to be one of the worst comedy that the bbc show- that say a lot. Lee mack you dont have to make every line you say a joke. joke canned laughter joke canned laughter. Come on lets get somthing a bit more needed BBC. Watchman 11:51pm Sat 29 Aug
this is the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i love it it is great you must watch it on bbc iplayer or any way you can it is excellent!!!!! well written and very funny!!!!A+++++++++ jamieM8:35pm Fri 3 Apr
Absolutley BRILLIANT!!!! I don't know what people mean when they say it's rubbish, the jokes are cleverly written and even the actors are brilliant, some people may prefer the more subtle jokes but i dont see why! MissTennant5:48pm Sun 22 Mar
I watch it every week I watch this every week and laugh despite the fact I know it's crap. Laughing is better than being miserable. shaman8:53pm Fri 20 Mar
GSOH needed If you find Friends funny then stay well clear of this. This comedy uses puns can doublentendre to gain its goal. Crap acting, crap story but who cares. You will chukle at some point and if you have a funny bone then most of the time.
If you describe yourself as a funloveing person and don't like this then you are an idiot. 29xthepain2:52pm Fri 20 Mar
Talk about Drivel I had the unfortunate experience of watching this programme last week. This is not comedy it's tragedy. What ever happened to good comedy? Only Fools, Yes, Prime Minister, To the Manor Born, watchable, cleverly written, actually funny. Instead of THIS rubbish!! SimonP6:55pm Sun 15 Mar
Comedy? I thought it was a fly on the wall docu-soap like the One show. Well there you go. Shows just how wrong you can be. Mella Likka8:16pm Thu 12 Mar
Laughed my head off -not! Very annoying canned laughter which must amount to an admission that basically its not funny. Chaplin10:09pm Mon 9 Mar
Well I like it.. It's not exactly groundbreaking tv, but sometimes you just want something to laugh at, and this does just the job. When i go out on fridays, i consider it good enough to catch up on iplayer, so i dont just watch it out of sheer boredom. I.heart.tv.9:57pm Mon 9 Mar
Awesome i luv this show, i always want friday to come quik coz i luv it so much.
Lee is sooo fit xx TommyCooper*NormanWisdom12:14am Fri 27 Feb
Poor weak comedy. but expect nothing less from the bbc. Samc9:38pm Fri 20 Feb
Hang on a second Personally I dont particularly like this program, there's no need for acting as it is non-existant, they might as well put out a script..
But saying everyone north of london has no culture is going a bit far...
Anyone who is that derogatory obviously themselves has no concept of 'culture' as they have no right to define it.. jono8:56pm Fri 20 Feb
People I don't like this show but the people in here are just weird. If you don't like it don't watch, get a life. jsdafj6:47pm Fri 20 Feb
TACKY RUBBISH FOR LOSERS THIS IS SOMETHING THAT LOSERS AND OLD NORTHERNERS WATCH AND IT SHOULD BE TAKEN OFF TV IMMEDITAELY - THERES IS NOTHING GOOD TO WATCH ON THE 5 CHANNELS EVER..APART FROM JONATHAN ROSS WHICH IS ON A FRIDAY NIGHT 0 SHOULD MOVE IT TO THURSDAY NIGHT! FJ3:47pm Tue 10 Feb
charlie chuckle sucks great funny funny well written full of gas silly comedy ...love it
paddyc9:04pm Fri 6 Feb
Hmm.. This programme seems like an excuse for Lee Mack to roll out hundreds of one-liners - may as well listen to him do 30 minutes of stand-up every friday night which i'm sure would be a lot more funny than this rubbish. Meh8:41pm Fri 6 Feb
CHARLIE CHUCKLE?? your not going out becuase your a disillusioned loser who hasnt got a life - tv is not real - you are wasting your life watching crap like this terribleyyy9:06pm Fri 30 Jan
TALENTLESS TAACKY AWFUL QUALITY this is so tacky and unbelievably low quality - this program sums up the typical crap programmes on tv today...this is for losers and tasteless people with no culture (basically people from provincial england - anywhere north of london) ....8:59pm Fri 30 Jan
I'm not (going out) & it's in part thanks to great telly like this. Charlie Chuckle8:44pm Fri 30 Jan
Love it Yeah the jokes are hit and miss, but the great thing is when you do get a miss you know the next joke is only another 10 seconds away. And Trevor... I recognise your style. Did you used to write in often to points of view? If you don't like something then turn it over. Don't moan about it. Listen to your own advice. Johnny7:59pm Fri 30 Jan
Chicken Soup for the soul If you don't find this program uttterly hilarious, in a childish and silly kind of way then there is something dark in your soul. This is happy, funny and ok, perhaps not very clever. But you can watch this and forget the credit cards, the job worries just laugh for half an hour. Grimace and Vomit10:38am Fri 30 Jan
