Drifters

Drifters is a sit-com following three young women in their 20s who are stuck in that awkward time of life when you're no longer a child but also not quite responsible or mature enough to make it in the adult world and are basically just trying to get your life together. Meg, Bunny and Laura are very flawed but relatable characters who are very straight-talking and somewhat obnoxious and attempting to 'make it' in the world. They adopt a 'fake it until you make it' philosophy and consequently get themselves into some hilariously awkward situations in front of their partners, colleagues, friends and family.

It's not a spectacular show, but it does what it says on the tin and provides some very funny moments. It does what only British comedies can achieve by never holding back in showing the more disgusting antics that young people get up to (particularly sexually) and the language they use. Face it - a lot of young people ARE sex-obsessed, they ARE vulgar and they ARE party animals, and that's what Drifters shows. It's refreshing to see a comedy that depicts three females who aren't perfect and who are shallow, self-centred, promiscuous, immature, loud and vulgar - qualities which are generally associated with young men.

For anyone that really wants to know what to expect from Drifters, it's basically a slightly older female version of Inbetweeners - there you have it.

'Drifters' is sometimes unbelievable funny. The three girls in the center actually aren't girls anymore, they are women, but occasionally extremely childish, helpless, deceitful, or, among other 'features', simply dumb.

They always fail on an epic scale with their versions of loving, being happy, finding a job, standing on their own feet, finding the right partner, being smart, being popular and so on, because if they achieve something, they are messing it up, always.

Now, one would think that they aren't likable, but they are. Very. After every failure they manage to overlook its reasons and continue to stand tall, despite any embarrassments.

This is one of my most beloved comedies, and it's always sad to have only six episodes a season. I'd like to have sixteen.

A bunch of idiotic friends unable to adult, having fun doing crap jobs and having a raucous life. I loved it. I came to check if another series was planned whilst watching the writer on Travel Man and needed to leave a review.

It's got Bob Mortimer in it which is why I started watching it. The casting is good. It's got great character-development and genuine gags.

The formula works well. It lasted a few seasons. The comedy is there and it is refreshing although it quickly gets repetitive on the gags being sexualised.

It's very lewd for most UK comedy shows. It's for a matuer audience. I enjoyed it and it had enough chemistry to keep me watching but compared to what is on offer already in the UK it is a bit lacking.

Similar humour to Inbetweeners. Potty humour which does not work for everyone. It's a dry delivery and the sketches are generally good but the situation is almost always desparate which is where the comedy is.

A strong 7/10.

This is a refreshing sitcom that centres around the shenanigans of twentysomething immature characters between the stages of uni needing to enter into adult life.

These characters get themselves into some embarrassing situations that are relatable, others completely unrelatable and beyond belief - it's these situations do end up being awkwardly funny - and that's the type comedy this series brings.

I like the way the sitcom has done this in the perspective of three female friends, which are usually shown the other way round, and it certainly doesn't mean their actions show them in a flattering light. If anything, they usually have some portrayal to make them a little loveable, I think this series actually might connect to their story but not necessarily sympathise!

I thought the actors playing the characters were perfect. This series delivered a good awkward comedy with a little something refreshing.
