5 out of 5 stars Genius   January 6, 2009
Not a big fan of sitcoms but I thought I would give this a try on the strength that Ade Edmondson was in it - I always liked him in Bottom and the Young Ones. So it was a really big surprise when I watched this DVD just how fantastic it was! It offers a harsh biting parody of modern marketing and advertising and really does show how dumb big companies think we all are. Although it is funny throughout, there are a few sad moments and ultimately some tragedy along the way (the whole story is pretty tragic from the first few scenes onwards). If you like comedy to have a bit of meat on its bones rather than disposable chuckles then this is a must-see!

Quite simply this is the funniest sitcom ever made (although I wouldn't attempt to argue with those who'd choose Fawlty Towers). br /The main focus of the series is television advertisements and writers Marshall and Renwick and director Marcus Mortimer give us many parodies as well-observed and scathing as their satirisations of other T.V. genres were in their previous collaboration Alexei Sayle's Stuff.br /At the time of writing Renwick had already written several series of One Foot In The Grave and Gordon, played by Ade Edmondson, is in effect a 40 year old Meldrew. Almost all his lines one could imagine coming from Victor as he expresses his frustration at such irritations as unwanted free newspapers, insurance companies and the little T-shaped bits of plastic that come with new shirts.br /If You See God...is one of those very rare sitcoms that is of the highest standard throughout. Not once does the comedy flag and the continual laughs come from character, situation and dialogue simultaneously.br /As one would expect from Renwick there is never a happy ending. The first episode ends with a cry of frustration from Gordon that brings to mind Reggie Perrin, and the conclusion to the final episode is as bleak as they come.br /An absolute must.br /Les Lunchco.
