strangely although normally I hate "forced background laughter" this feels weirdly empty without the audience.

I love the O'Reilly joke at the end tho xD

[fuzzjohn]

Maybe then you rely on the audience's laughter to tell you when a joke is funny rather than finding it funny yourself. It's like being brainwashed into thinking something is funny.

O'Reilly bit at the end was beautiful. Not as good as Charlie Brooker's, but still quite beautiful.

"Paul and Ian are unable to appear as they have fallen in love, and gone for a dirty weekend to Paris."

I watch and re-watch that bit just to take in it's sheer surrealism. And to chastise myself for wondering if maybe, JUST MAYBE, Alexander wasn't joking... xD

o'reilly!!! Three cheers for anyone who dicks on Bill-O!

[ChrisPatuzzo]

Some of the jokes seem really bad with no audience there to laugh.

hah, could've used the live audience laughter of the real show, but the O'Reliely ending sealed it as a side splitter for me.
