I think that the Tim Key segments are TERRIBLE. Yeah, the poetry's shit. We get that. Shit poetry doesn't automatically equal comedy gold, though.

Would anyone else want Charlie to review television from diiferent countries to show their own cultural characteristics?

For example I'd love it if he reviewed anime.

5:20 was that necessary??!

Charlie looks so different now to how he does here, guess this was four years and a marriage ago.

Hey, it's the that guy from Skins!

I think the Tim Key segments are funny because they're the only non-funny bits of the show.

@Misishaxi Its funny because of how they present it. That's what I think anyway

[IceyOnly]

As much as I dislike Tim Key's poetry, it's preferable to that goddamn MadWorld song.

Does they say "He's THE man" or He's A man"? It sounds like the latter, and having a Y chromosome isn't really an achievement worthy of a faux-rock pop fuckery, is it.
