FTA-TV The Inbetweeners

[DoubleO7]

What’s on the mind of the average sixth-form boy? College, jobs, marriage, that whole bright and exciting future thing? Or the humpability of anything female in sight? For Will, Simon, Jay and Neil, it’s humpability all the way.

Marooned in suburbia, The Inbetweeners follows four friends as they navigate the minefield of the Comprehensive education with their hormones at full blast. There's vomit, offensive language, and a trip to Thorpe Park.



All they care about is sex, cheap booze, kid brothers and the sexual persuasion of Neil’s dad. None of our heroes are exceptional, all are distinctly average. And trying to convince the world they are sophisticated, sexy human beings usually ends in wretched disaster.



The Inbetweeners delves into the psyche of the British teenage boy and discovers equal amounts of pr0n, sick and cheap lager.

I have just seen the first episode and I quite like it. It has some similar elements to 'Skins' in a way. It's good for a cheap laugh or two.

[Minkus_Swan]

The 2nd series has just started here in the UK.

Brilliant

 

[Mr P@H]

Where is the credit for putting you onto it

Decent show, total forget about everything for 30 minutes comedy.

 

[DoubleO7]

It will come in due time.

I spent the last couple of hours watching the entire first series. Very funny but very sex orientated. It's like the only thing on the main characters minds.

Welcome to the world of teenage boys!

I love this show, but once again suffers from the curse of being british in that it will only run for very short seasons. Yes shows hardly go past their best before date...but you always want more.

 

[Play by Numbers]

2nd series FTW. Am excited I hope it's good.

Always leave them wanting more.

Always leave them wanting more.

I know...but when I want more as a viewer I get grumpy

 

[The Weapon]

Just watched s01e01. Loved it!

"Iain Morris and Damon Beesley have been asked by American Broadcasting Corporation to produce a pilot for a U.S. version of the series. They will be head writers for the project. The network has given Morris and Beesley a second blind script commitment for a future project the two will create. Both projects will be made at ABC Studios."

- US adaption

Jees, must be very popular in the United States. I must say, I was hooked from the very first episode.

All episodes from series one and two are available on youtube.

 

[Bomber Bears]

Anyone watched this cracker of a sitcom from England about a kid who gets moved from a private school to a comprehensive in 6th form? Absolutely hilarious IMO, one of the best shows I've been shown in a while.

Coming on Go! at some point in the near future I'm pretty sure

 

[DoubleO7]

Indeed!

Have they made a series 3 yet?

 

[Bomber Bears]

According to the ever reliable wikipedia, a 3rd season has been comissioned to air in 2010 and a feature film is also in the works

 

[DoubleO7]

A third series sounds exciting; I don't put much faith in a film, though.

 

[CF]

bump

 

[McLeodMagic]

Really good show! Hopefully it doesn't go downhill like Skins.

 

[Bomber Bears]

Annoyigly the episodes on youtube seem to run out after the second ep of series 2. First ep of series two is absolute gold

 

[Bomber Bears]

Bump

On Go!, started tonight at 9:30 but is repeated at about 2 in the morning or something. Gets better and better after the first ep, second ep is gold

 

[Exhale You]

I IQ'd the first two eps last night and just watched the first.

The British humour and turn of phrase is always entertaing but even moreso when they're not holding anything back.

The scene where they were discussing Will's mum very much had a Ricky Gervais feel to it.

Looking forward to waching ep 2 tonight and then the following two eps next week.

 

[Jabso]

It's pretty good. Don't think it will be one of my favourites but to me this is better than Skins. I'm not a fan of some of the drama that's caked on to that show, Inbetweeners seems to do comedy much better than Skins ever did.

Just off topic, were they the two from Extras by any chance? The names ring a bell.

 

[Caesar]

I've seen the first two series, they've got a third in production. Pretty undergraduate humour, but definitely worth watching.

 

[Ledger]

Good stuff for all that recommended this show, was so hooked I had to download and watch the entire 2 series in the past few days.

Humour is a lot funnier than a lot of other comedy shows, plus Jay is gold.

 

[DoubleO7]

Just off topic, were they the two from Extras by any chance? The names ring a bell.

Not to the best of my knowledge.

 

[PowerIStough]

Just finished watching Season 1. Hilarious stuff.

Looking forward to watch Season 2.

Apparently with Season 3 there is a movie aswell.

Anyone got any details about the Movie?

Hopefully The Inbetweeners do not go downhill like Skins UK has been recently.
