Everyone Else Burns

Good scripts and a fine premise. A parody of Jehovah's Witnesses and various hard line Christian sects. A talented cast that is let down by Simon Bird who is only capable of rehashing the same character seen in In-betweens. He's got no other range and it takes the whole story line into comedy cliché, where as all the other cast are quite rightly playing the characters much straighter and therefore stronger.

Shame. He was poorly cast. I may stick with it but it's borderline because he continually ruins the plots with his pantomime over acting. Hopefully future casting directors will take note and we won't see him for a while.

It was quite clear it was the cult I grew up in in the first 5 seconds of the show, it was so unbelievably funny and accurate the person who wrote it must have grown up in the cult because there was so many tiny things you would only know if you was one, they even got characters down to a T - i could deffo relate also I liked the diversions for copywrite purposes lol it was refreshing to see this and it helps to laugh about this past traumatic life lol I hope they keep it rolling!

The problem is I'm not sure how funny it would be to people who never was in the cult, I don't think it's a relatable or understandable life to others, cult members would definitely not find it funny and most likely would avoid. However for us ex's it's fab gives you a chance to confirm yep you were living that life and thank god your not now- but your not alone so laugh instead of crying (as our ex members have really bad mental health after leaving the jehovahs witnessess or being disfellowshiped ) it shows you the humours side! And also it gives you a chance to show those around you a glimpse of what you had a live through.

I grew up in an evangelical christian cult-like religious organisation and much of this is so close to my experience it is uncanny. I appreciate that not many other people will have experienced this sort of thing but believe me it exists.

I am actually finding it surprisingly affirming and liberating to see the situations this family find themselves in and to finally be able to see a funny side to it.

I particularly like the characters who are David's wife (Fiona) and daughter (Rachel) - super acting from Kate O'Flynn and Amy James-Kelly.

Well done to everyone involved, I really hope there will be more seasons in the future.

I couldn't stop watching. I really enjoyed this show. It doesn't paint the believers of this fictional faith as moronic/evil , instead it paints a realistic picture of how some faiths and preachers can harm the people they're trying to enlighten.

The show has a great heart and it made me cackle with laughter. The characters are very likable and well written. The cast gave a great performance , they all have such a great range.

A lot of the reviews are vocal people with religious backgrounds who may not like the challenging nature of the subject matter. I definitely would say it's worth giving a watch. Looking forward to season 2.

This is an excellent sitcom. It is very layered, so takes a few episodes for things to settle in and become familiar and therefore comfortable to laugh at. It its both heart warming and laugh out loud funny. The acting is great, and the direction and setting is perfect. It is an excellent parody of organised religion,family life and modern Britain. But there is also a clear positive message and a feel good factor that makes it a great watch. Simon Bird plays his familiar uptight self, as a over pious dad.. But the rest of the cast play around this with real skill, making him seem even more uptight than in the inbetweeners. Really well done..
