IT Crowd... v 3.0
Par Pierre, Saturday 22 November 2008 à 00:36 :: Reviews :: #78 :: rss
Channel 4's best comedy is back for another series. The IT Crowd follows the IT department of a London-based company through their not-so-everyday lives.
While the first series was fairly IT-related, the second series was more generally geek-oriented, and had a fair few excellent parodies... between others, the much celebrated piracy ad parody. However, whilst the first episode of the second series was very much up to the previous episodes' standards, the second series went downhill after that.
The third series looks like it's going in the direction of classic British comedy, following the path of Fawlty Towers and Red Dwarf. The first episode manages the extraordinary feat of being just enough self-referential: continuity references are there, extremely funny, but not in too heavy proportions! If it is not up to the standards of the opening episodes of the previous two series, it certainly looks as though the show has reached a certain maturity and will manage to have a fairly good third series!
