Hello Ladies

[Halb]

Christ this is excruciating!


Painful to watch in the funny way....

[Halb]

If you've seen the clip from Extras where he tries to chat up a woman, it's a bit like that, but this character is also actually funny and nice....when he is not attempting courting techniques.

I loved the first episode.

and the lead has no redeeming qualities whatsoever. Might be its downfall though as Merchant has made his character so unlikeable

He has redeeming qualities, he is funny, and giving. And when he is not so frantically chasing women is OK.

I did love the Long Beach nightclub scene and ensuing story, class stuff from Merchant!

The one with the 'fight'?
I liked that one. Warming a bit to the character, though he is a cretin.

I'll watch it...behind my hands no doubt.

[Halb]

I always loved the series and the film was extremely good, watched it twice and laughed out loud second time round too!
I can't understand why series was cancelled, obviously I found it funny, but having been cut short, I'm glad he did the film to give some closure on it. And the film was very good, so often movies of TV shows are crap.

Brilliant stuff imho, it will be missed.

I agree, have to admit though, the excruciating embarrassment I could feel watching some scenes....it was very very good. I stopped the recorder a few times.
Once he changed his attitude though and got the girl he needed, I don't see how it could continue.
