"Ok" ? To be honest, a bit weak :/
I WANT to like it, I just don't love it.



There are a couple of people in my office that just *love* The IT Crowd. Your thoughts sum it up exactly tho - I WANT to like it, but it is just a little too contrived.....

thats the whole point though, they dont even try to make it "real"

its completely contrived, and completely silly, and thats why its awesome.

Some shows make me cringe, like the Office, or Extras, but that is the desired reaction. And it's ****ing funny. The IT crowd just makes me cringe ...

Coupling was GREAT.
Way better than the IT Crowd - I wouldn't put it in the same pile Scott!

One of my mates in my phone is "Cap'n Subtext" (not sure if you'd remember that Matt)

Coupling was very very clever in some episodes - some done twice, but in two languages, some done with split screen, with a half hour delay - very clever in the end.

I'm the mother flippin' Rhymenocerous
My beats are fly and the birds are on my back
And I'm horny I'm horny
If you choose to proceed you will indeed concede
Cos I hit you with my flow The Wild Rhino Stampede.
I'm not just wild,
I'm trained,
Domesticated
I was raised by a rapper and rhino
that dated And subsequently procreated
That's how it goes
Here's the Hiphopopotamus
The hip hop hippo
They call me the Hiphopopotamus
My lyrics are bottomless

They call me the Hiphopopotamus
Flows that glow like phosphorous
Poppin' off the top of this
esophagus
Rockin' this metropolis
I'm not a large water-dwelling mammal
Where did you get that preposterous hypothesis?
Did Steve tell you that, perchance?
Steve.

My rhymes and records they don't get played
Because my records and rhymes
they don't get made
And if you rap like me you don't get paid
And if you roll like me you don't get laid.

My rhymes are so potent
that in this small segment
I made all of the ladies in the area pregnant
Yes, sometimes my lyrics are sexist
But you lovely bitches and hoes
should know I'm trying to correct this.
Other rappers dis me
Say my rhymes are sissy.

Why?
Why?
Why?
What?
Why exactly?
What?
Why?
Be more constructive with your feedback, please.
Why?
Why?
Why,

because I rap about reality?
Like me and my grandma drinking a cup of tea?
There ain't no party like my nanna's tea party.
Hey! Ho!

I'm the motherflippin'
I'm the motherflippin'
I'm the motherflippin'
Who's the motherflippin?
I'm the motherflippin'
I'm the motherflippin'
I'm the motherflippin'

Motherflippin'

I like this idea.

A Kiss Is Not A Contract
A kiss is not a contract
but it's very nice
yes it's very nice

Just because you've been exploring my mouth
Doesn't mean you get to take an expedition to the south

A kiss is not a contract
but it's very nice
yes it's very very nice

Just because we've been playing tonsil hockey
Doesn't mean you get to score the goal in my jockeys
Just because I'm in an acoustic folk band,
It doesn't mean I only want poon-tang
I can't go around loving everyone
I just wouldn't get anything done
Oh because...

I'm only one man
Baby
We're only two men, Ladies
Baby, oh pretty babies
