Loaded

Solid British comedy with many laugh-out-loud moments, this show started well and keeps getting better. How very British to see making lots of money as a natural source of problems and conflict. Reminiscent of classic Ealing comedies, with a superb cast and solid one episode cameos. Great to see Nigel Planner as the miserable old school teacher that one time, I wish Brit shows didn't have such short series runs. Please let there be a second season!

* Nice settings and atmosphere * Interesting characters * sometimes too shallow * i assume it contains hidden "easter eggs" * all in all quite good

To say I'm british and don't really enjoy british tv shows, I absolutely loved this. I hope there will be a second season.

Adapted from an Israeli series - Loaded is the story of four friends who design a mobile game and become multi-millionaires. Released in the age of austerity it likely rankled with its wild depictions of spending excess but the real heart of the series is the relationship between the central four - it can be clunky but the chemistry between them is palpable and it's a series I've always been oddly fond of. It should also be said that even after three years the depiction of mobile gaming is very dated (NO MICRO TRANSACTIONS?!?) but the central themes of "selling out" and artistic vision are still quite relevant.

The real draw here for me is the rarely-seen Jonny Sweet as the hyper-nervy anxietylord Ewan. His comic timing is glorious and although he appears a fair amount on BBC radio you rarely get to see his magnificent visage. Additionally there's some great Brit comedy cameos. Underrated I'd say.

First episodes are usually bad. This pilot shows promise but by no means is the best. So my review is comparing it to other comedy pilots.

This is for fans of comedy like Uncle, Witless and Phoneshop.

I noticed one other review from someone clearly not a comedy fan nor a nerd. This is for those that get British sarcasm. The lady reviewing clearly doesn't get awkward comedy, sarcasm, word play and dark comedy. It should be noted she also classes the latest Bridget Jones' movie as good and thinks tropes and clichés of girl power make for good stories. That should tell you something about their ability to review.

This is a loving laugh at the games industry and how a country famed for games devs is now reduced to mobile phone games. Also deals with the litigious nature of IPs.

great acting with a natural script.
