Here We Go

One extended family's experiences of not coping very well with 2020. Gentle observational humour builds up to a couple of set pieces which deliver real belly laughs.

I havent seen the Christmas pilot that people seem to be making reference to, just the first episode going to the theme park.

It feels a bit wooden sometimes, but that's just a style thing. The Office and Peep Show felt like that at the beginning also.

It really borrows heavily from that style of comedy, some of it feels a bit forced, but it is really funny. I laughed out loud at a few points.

The BBC, being the BBC of course cant help the obligatory tick boxing. But. It was a good show.

It's seemingly been a while since the BBC had it's last family comedy and so, here comes "Here We Go" (also known as Pandemonium", a Dom Com about the Jessops.

The show is definitely promising, providing good observational humour and quite gentle in nature. It's a bit too slow-paced, but I suspect that that will be rioned out as the series progresses.

My only complaint with this series is that they probably could have made it look more like it has been filmed and edited by a teenager.

Apart from that though, this is a really fun and entertaining series with superb acting.

I love the characters and it feels like a more realistic less scary Friday night dinner. The characters are a little stereotypical in parts (Cherry and Robin) but there is nuanced queer representation, subtle mental health awareness and Sam is awesome and isn't boxed in at all.
