    I've watched a total of 2 minutes of it, so I can't really comment. But I didn't enjoy those two minutes. Agree with Sean South that Peep Show is better thought, because Peep Show is amazing.

    Seen bits of it here and there and I think it's pish.

    Still Game, The Office, Peep Show, Black Books, Spaced, Father Ted, Gavin & Stacey...all miles better.

    No one ever has anything good to say about the show.

    It's not even so bad that it's funny,it's just cat sick.

    Old people seem to love it. My gran and all her mates go to the shows and that. Maybe it was the oldies voting? Has to be cause it's dire.

    Is Still Game as loved in England, Wales and Ireland as it is in Scotland? A guess a know it obviously won't be but what do none Scots think of it?

    Have seen a few minutes of it, didn't find it all that funny but it's probably not aimed at young people.

    How did I forget that?!

    Peep Show and The Office in particular are just so much better than Mrs Brown's Boys.
