All right, all you Peep Show fans who either reside in the US or have figured out one of the many ways to access Hulu content from outside the US, the first season of David Mitchell and Robert Webb's sketch series, That Mitchell and Webb Look, is available to watch on Hulu right now, and it's good shit, so you should get on that.  The show is currently airing its fourth season in the UK, so this gives you a chance to find out what you've been missing, then torrent the shit out of the rest of the episodes like I did.

This show is nothing short of brilliant.  I can't even imagine where the seventh season will go, but if the writing in the past is any indication, things will go from bad to worse. I'm hard-pressed to imagine any other show that nails despair and Murphy's Law quite like this show.  Anytime Mark or Jeremy try to better their situation, they dig themselves deeper into the hole they made by settling back in to bad habits or even just pure misfortune.


Jeremy Osborne: You can so tell this game is over a thousand years old.
Mark Corrigan: Yes, it's very sophisticated. It's your move.
Jeremy Osborne: I don't wanna play anymore.
Mark Corrigan: Because I'm winning?
Jeremy Osborne: No, not because you're win... I don't even know who's winning! Here, Mark, I'll tell you what, you piss in this bottle, I'll drink it.

Take the pledge, P.

i'm in.

Mitchell and Webb Look has been on Netflix Instant for over a year.

[polkablues]

Weird, I've never seen it on there.

[diggler]

i've never seen it on there either.

just blew through all six seasons, I can't believe it took me this long to watch it. It completely blows away any other comedy on today (and that's saying a lot). You can really judge a great show by how much you laugh out loud at it when you're watching by yourself. This show has those laughs in spades. I haven't seen much of Mitchell and Webb look but the few sketches posted above were pretty good.

Show sounds awesome. I'll check it out when I get back high speed for sure.

[RegularKarate]

Yeah, Instant.  Look for it.
But the main point is that it's a good show.  It has it's ups and downs, but way more ups than most sketch shows and it has a lot of really hard laughs.

[polkablues]

I agree. I would kill for the SNL writers to watch it and learn some lessons on how to structure a sketch.
