Jerk (2019– )
10/10
Funniest thing on TV

Warning: Spoilers
I was absolutely over the moon when I found out that the second series was out. I watched the first episode and it didn't disappoint, was cracking up from beginning to end. Now, I want to make something clear here; I have two movement disorders, and whilst neither of them are as serious as Tim's I still encounter many of the same problems (the trouble with the coke spoke to me on a very personal level!) and I would like to put at rest the minds of those with twisted knickers-you have no idea how awesome it is to actually see people like myself represented on tv as something other than a pity point for the main protagonists to milk; to be represented as a regular character who's just as much of a c*** as every other human being on this planet. And when he decided to identify as able-bodied (something I was hugely condemned for suggesting on SM three years ago) I literally punched the air, cheered and applauded. He's my new obnoxious hero. So please bear this in mind if you're having wee panic attacks (which I also experience, so don't start) about us poor 'disabled' people and the humour you feel we lack. Thanks for reading.
