The Cleaner

Seems a hard place to begin thinking of making a comedy well played by Greg Davies this has really funny moments and keeps moving at a nice pace really enjoyable and surprisingly funny.

First I'd like to say that very episode isn't as funny as the next but it's weird and wonderful and it doesn't need to be side splitting all the time because the storylines are brilliant.

I don't quite get the bad reviews because you just need to watch it and not think too deep about it, watch it and enjoy it for what it is. This innocent cleaner gets tangled up in these sticky situations.

Remember TAKE IT FOR WHAT IT IS and you'll love it.

If you've enjoyed Greg's stand up or Man Down in the past then you should find plenty to enjoy, as each episode has some great gags and every now and then a little depth creeps into the story and catches you by surprise. There are also some great guest spots.

I can only assume that some negative reviewers are not fans of his humour - we watched the first 4 in one sitting and like it a lot :-)

I have waited a few episodes before reviewing this, as I had no idea which way it was going to go, a few episodes in, and I am hooked.

I don't think we've not been well served with new comedy shows in recent times, the reliance rests with old favourites such as Inside no.9 and Not going out. The Cleaner might just change all that, I can see this running.

The format really does work, and there is no denying the brilliance of Greg Davies, his writing, timing and general talent.

Every episode has a different flavour, there really is a depth of variety, light, dark, and not afraid to have a pop at taboo subjects.

This far, The Aristocrat has been my favourite episode, but I've genuinely enjoyed them all.

Love it, 9/10.

The UK has an increasing body of works of quality wry dramas written by people we think of as comedians.

People in the reviews giving this 5 stars of less - because it's not 'laugh out loud', 'roll on the floor' funny are missing the point of these sorts of gems.

Peep Show, Inside no.9,Saxondale,Camping, Truth Seekers - and so on.
