1 out of 5 stars Quite literally the least funny thing ever created.   July 25, 2008
  4 out of 7 found this review helpful

Truly awful. The impersonations are shocking and some of them could not sound less like the person intended if they tried. Even ignoring this, 90% of the sketches are not remotely funny, and a fair few are actually hugely irritating in their attempts to be funny. The only good point is that SOME of the animation is quite nice, but not much, and there will inevitably be the odd brief, quiet chuckle. Few and far between though. Headcases is an approprite title, because that is what you would need to be one of to pay money for this.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent topical show!   July 14, 2008
  3 out of 8 found this review helpful

It's worth it for Madonna's questionable crotch alone, but this series was truly the hero of mainstream comedy this year. Faves included President Armadinijad (Don't be racist... give us nuclear) Jeremy Clarkson and poor old Gordon Brown. Brilliant!


1 out of 5 stars Awful, just awful   July 11, 2008
  5 out of 13 found this review helpful

This is possibly the unfunniest 'comedy' I have ever come across. Far from being sharp and satirical as the description suggests, this is a run through of the same poor jokes from the same lazy charicatures every episode. It mistakes bad impersonations and catchphrases for clever satire. Even the CGI is excerable (the mention of Pixar in the description is about the funniest thing connected to this rubbish). This whole package of sheer awfulness is capped off with an unlikable and inexplicable smugness and self satisfaction. Avoid this junk at all costs.
