Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson -

I haven't caught many episodes of the peep show, but anything with David Mitchell in is worth watching.
On an almost unrelated note, does anyone also get a uneasy feeling when they see Greg Davies (as he was just now on Never Mind the Buzzcocks - which I didn't watch incidentally). It's spooky how much he resembles Rik Mayall. A much bigger and unfunny version of Rik Mayall. I thought is was Rik on steroids first time I saw him, except they don't make you taller. Not adults anyway. Spooky. Whooooooeooer. B00!Comment

Mitchell and Webb don't write it though, do they? I love Peep Show, but I thought the majority of their own sketch show was about as funny as Hale and Pace.Qdos Contractor - IR35 expertsComment

I'm sure Mitchell is very involved in the writing, no idea if they both are or who else might be.
But many sketch shows by good writers are crappy. For instance James Cordon is writer on Gavin & Stacey (not everyone's thing but well received) and on the Horne & Cordon sketch show. I think sketch shows are hugely hit-n-miss though, not just for writers but audiences. Little Britain has a huge following but to me it's just the same characters using the same punchline... on the other hand The Fast Show could be accused of doing exactly the same but is great.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment
