I didn't know anything about the show before stumbling onto the first episode. I hadn't heard of the film, but decided to give it a go as Matt Berry is generally pretty good. I really enjoyed it

Glad to see that it has been picked up for a second series.

The film was on last night, after the final two episodes of the series, so it'll be interesting to see how it compares..... I'm guessing it's fairly comparable, given the extent to which Jermaine Clement and Taika Waititi were involved in the series.

Funniest thing I've seen for a while. Can't wait for the next series and hoping for some more accidental vampire killing from our familiar.

Watched after recommendations on here and whilst it’s a fairly unusual format - a comedy Being Human alike if you will. I thought it lame and it didn’t even raise a titter from me.

Watched the series and the film... Both very funny and council meeting was brilliant, reminded me of work meetings! Matt Berry is always very good!

I saw a post saying it started on Fox and Hulu next week “and on the BBC soon”.

Need to rewatch the first series; really did enjoy it.

Most of the way through S2. More of the same, quite good. I think Colin Robinson must be on PH, going by some of the posts on here.

Our house, we binge watched series 2... well, it already feels like long ago.

There's also someone else who likes it, managed to get a small part in S2E6 wink

1st episode disappointing, but back on form with episodes 2 & 3.
