Car crash TV at its finest: Art imitating life.
8 May 2019 | by bgsmallSee all my reviews

Having watched some of the episodes at time of broadcast on CH4, I felt a need to view the entire series from beginning to end, and yesterday I achieved that aim!

The 30-soon to be 40-something's Mark and Jeremy navigate their work and personal relationships in unsynchronized tandem across the entire run of episodes. However, their methods in managing the lows and highs are diametrically opposed. Within that lies the awful crass, stupid, ignorant and very funny responses they choose. The overall hilarity is aided by each characters thoughts being verbalised to the viewer. Car crash TV at its finest, difficult to not sometimes think 'oh but for the grace of God go I'....
