Brass Eye (1997–2001)
10/10
Brass Eye = Pure genius
11 March 2023
This whole serious is one of the best and most important pieces of work to every be broadcast ( and thankfully realesed on DVD etc)

It's once again displays the sheer genius of Chris Morris and the team he had built around himself.

This totally outs the miansteam media in the UK (and indeed US) on how they attempt to manipulate the weak-minded in our society into manufactured 'moral panics' over the most stupid things.

And how the MSM invent moral panic in order to divert attention away from the real issues that matter in life , like the fact the MSM is owned and run by billionaires who don't even pay tax into the UK treasury. It also outs the BBC. ITV, Sky etc on the same basis as all of them are run by the corrupt, right wing, self serving 'rulin class' whom don't want progressive change or real democracy (like Nordic countries enjoy)

All of the work of Chris Morris, Armando Iannucci, Stewart Lee is top notch and hugely important.

Meet the Magoons (2005– )
10/10
Excellent series - Needs to be realeased on DVD or put on Channel 4 OD
10 March 2023
This series was absolutlely excellent.

No wonder it had some great comedy supoort actors in it as well as the main characters.

Would have loved to have seen a 2nd series at very least.

Needs to be realeased on DVD asap or Channel 4 need to at least add it to their 4 OD (catchup service)

Very well written and helps showcase Scotland's diversity (which is something that has been overlooked by the mainstream media for far too long.

As someone who loves the satire of Chris Morris, Armando Iannucci , Stewart Lee (and they many talented folk they worked ith) this sort of comedy was a big hit with me.

To the 2 people on here whom gave it poor reviews, perhaps they are devoid of a real sense of humour and 'Del Boy' falling through the bar on 'Only Fools And Horses' is more their level of outdated humour. Each to their own I guess.
