Telly - "The Mighty Boosh"
Utter cr*p!
Peter Wyngarde type who just looks 'nowty' and some grinning fop with a Rod Stewart haircut and a "Look at me pals... I'm on telly" expression and sh*t-eating grin 24/7!
Now I'm all for newer comedy on the BBC Digital channels... I'm enjoying "I'm With Stupid" and love "The Smoking Room"... okay, "Little Miss Jocelyn" is cack - but I don't think of that as comedy, more of an Aldi-style pastiche of comedy...
But this pile of old pony...
Mind you... if I were back at university I'd probably have to mix with a bunch of t*ssers who'd LOVE this type of dogegg.
No... maybe I'm just being harsh... let's have a biased opinion in favour if it -
Come with us now on a journey through time and space... to the world of The Mighty Boosh...
Written by and starring Noel Fielding and Julian Barratt, The Mighty Boosh is an off-the-wall adventure based on their Perrier Award-winning comedy show.
Howard and Vince, two workers in a run-down zoo, are often called upon to put their jobs before their pride. That means dressing up as animals and sitting in cages because their boss, American entrepreneur Bob Fossil, can barely afford any real animals (or even remember what species they are).
Vince - amazing hair in tow - accepts the situation happily, quite in contrast to his grandiose, tweed-wearing colleague, Howard Moon - who's either full of self-delusion or in a "jazz trance".
But, their jobs involve much more than just dressing up. From freeing mutant animals engineered in a secret laboratory underneath the zoo, to fighting a kangaroo to raise money for their dilapidated workplace, Howard and Vince always find themselves at the centre of some very strange events.
With some wonderful supporting characters such as Dixon Bainbridge - the upper-class bully-boy - and the spaced-out shaman, Naboo (forever thinking about that job at Dixons), The Mighty Boosh throws in animation, film references and musical numbers to create one of the best comedy shows of the last 10 years - get involved!
Now that review was written by Sir Jesus The Christ, Buddha, Ken Hom and David Blunkett - so it MUST be true.
Ignore my acerbic comments folks - I don't know what I'm talking about in light of this revelation!

Never watched it, and I don't like Noel Fielding, so I doubt I will ever watch it. Seems to have acquired a kind of "cult" status for some though....?

Here... I'm going to have to investigate this..
My wife informs me that my brother...
Well he...
When she went round once he told her that...
Mind you I'll have to ask to see if it's true...
She says he told her...
Not easy this - but here goes...
HE SAID HE LIKED THIS SHOW AND THOUGHT IT WAS FUNNY!!!
There - now I know she's my wife... and I love her dearly etc. but I reall DO hope she's just being malicious here and spreading a nasty rumour...
Because if not...
:O
