Hey yeah I started watching that a few months ago. And yes it seemed to run out of steam for me. I would watch other shows and for some light relief jump back to it. But I haven't watched any for a couple of months now. It's nice enough and fun.
Also grabbed Micallef Tonight from 2003.
I love his style of comedy. It's such a shame those style of shows never did very well.
Aaah a blast from the past. I think the problem with him was that he was a bit too intelligent for his own good. If that makes sense. Hope that makes sense.
He definitely was/is. I can't stop laughing the whole way through, but I notice that the live audience (and my wife) don't giggle nearly as much.
Reminds me a bit of Daniel Kitson who's a stand up comic who tickles my funny bone. His timing and way of phrasing things is so perfect and he could probably just read the phone book or dictionary and get me rolling. Micallef is similar... Finishing the show with "And so, like a poorly stocked spice rack, we are out of Thyme"... So good.
