I'll start by saying that it is my style of humour but blow after blow leaves you limp and no longer interested.
It could have been a funny half hour show - that would be enough.
I enjoyed it at first, seemed witty and cheeky and funny but then it just starts to repeat and it's just painful.
This is my first Cunk to be fair so I didn't know what I was getting into.
I suspect that a lot of the 9-10 star reviews are by mega fans or maybe some involved in the production. But I get why some people would love it.
Like I said I did, it's funny, until it isn't Like Dad jokes, funny, 2nd one funny... but then pleases stop.

I noticed that some reviewers didn't like the jokes, but I laughed from beginning to end.
The reason this works for me is that she is dead serious when she asks the questions and the interviewees answer the questions without laughing.
I love all of her stuff. It's a shame that this got lower marks because I want her to keep on making these series.
I also find it exceedingly annoying that we have to type so many characters to leave a review.
I have nothing left to add to my review. Just came here to say that I found it hilarious and worth the watch despite some of the lower reviews. I'm not a someone who laughs at just anything. The bar is higher with me. So give it a try.

Absolutely hilarious and actually very informative mockumentary.
Diane Morgan is a genius comedian and I love everything she does.
This show talks about Adam and Eve ,birth, reproduction,God and life on earth.
I was thinking, Diane should do more stuff, like dark comedy shows ,or comedy thriller series ,maybe something like" Bad Sisters",or "Dead to Me".
She's just so talented!!!
But until that will become a reality, (Wishful thinking) I will watch Cunk on life/Britain /Earth a few times a year, just to bring me joy and laughter ,as well as Mandy series which I hope the new season will come next year .
BBC has got of good stuff on it's iPlayer,but some shows like "Cunk on"are a gem.

Philomena Cunk examines life and its meaning. By speaking to academics and other experts in their fields she looks at the big questions regarding life.
If you've watched Cunk on Earth you'll know what to expect: Philomena Cunk (Dianne Morgan) essentially asks absurdly silly but funny questions to some of the brightest people on the planet. If you've watched Da Ali G Show this will seem familiar as Cunk is derivative of that (and not as good).
However, despite not being entirely original it is pretty funny and entertaining. Dianne Morgan is great with spot-on timing.
Not as good as Cunk on Earth though. The set-ups are less intelligent, the humour cheaper and lower-brow and the experts less easily shocked.
Last time they seemed shocked at the silly questions but, to their credit, didn't lose their composure. Here they seemed to expect the silly questions (possibly they'd done their research and seen previous Cunk stuff) and rolled with it. Brian Cox, the eminent physicist, even seemed to be successfully anticipating where Cunk was going with her double entendre questions but played along anyway.

I love Cunk. I've seen all of her shows to date and love them all. I was so excited for the new one and put it on without a moment's hesitation.
And then... Just underwhelmed all the way. Jokes felt flat and repetitive. The experts are repeats and are clearly in on the joke by now that their reactions just don't feel sincere.
I'm not sure what's gone wrong behind the scenes, but the formula that worked so well, and was borrowed heavily from the Borat/Ali G playbook, didn't work here. Maybe it's me, maybe my expectations were too high, or maybe the ideas tank is dry and they're treading the same ground without anything new or fun left to do. Probably a bit of both.
It's a shame. I hope they can find their spark again. Until then, I'll continue to enjoy what was.
