Today we’ll be looking at the League of Gentlemen and Psychoville, a nice double bill for a good old fashioned British Tuesday.

What did you think of both shows?

League of Gentleman 1 & 2 has some great moments but the studio/canned laughter never sat right with me, it didn’t feel like that kind of show. It was pretty hit and miss at times but the highs (Lazarou, Tubbs) were high. Don’t want to watch it back now as I think it is going to feel very homophobic and transphobic in places. The third series got terrible reviews but I LOVED it, rewatched it on DVD so many times. It was just my kind of weird and I loved the interlinking episodes, had never seen anything like it at the time.

Psychoville never really clicked with me.

Inside No 9 is by far my favourite of the three shows but it’s still running and so we CANNOT RATE IT as per the thread rulebook.

Where’s the rule book for having two programmes in one thread? DISGRACE!

think LoG would be funnier if they had KitH sensibilities instead of trying to be morbid and dark all the time

Fucking loved both (mostly).

Both great weird, dark comedies that I still quote like an annoying twat. I remember the Tina Turner bit in Psychoville making me hurt laughing.

I want to be a fireman, Pauline!
