Game On!

Being a real lover of good comedy series like Blackadder, Fawlty Towers, a.s.o. I must say that none of those has ever made me laugh as much as this one did/does.

First of all let me say that I have never seen the first series (with Ben Chaplin) so I can't judge if this is better or worse. But what I do know is that if you can't laugh with the humour on 'Game On' you should really wonder if you have any sense of humour at all...

Neil "Double-hard Bastard" Stuke (Matt Malone) and Matthew "Ginger tosser" Cottle (Martin Henson) couldn't have been better cast for their parts. They are the absolute stars of the show. Samantha Janus is a little disappointing, compared to them, but good enough. She doesn't ruin it, but it is obvious why she doesn't get bigger and better roles...

To be brief: the stories are original (homosexuality, marriage, friendship), the dialogues are hilarious, the acting is good,... and in the end you get a GREAT comedy, believe me.

I give it a 9 out of 10.

PS: If you disagree with my opinion feel free to let me know...

One of the UK's funniest comedies of late. Superb, sneering performances from the new (and arguably improved) Matt Malone (aka Neil Stuke), combined with hilarious, although silly storylines make this sitcom one you won't want to miss!

2nd best comedy ever(behind father ted). All series brilliant and i have to say that ben chaplin suited the role better but neil stuke is equally as funny. For a comedy its 90% script to 10% acting ability. If the script is good enough anyone can pull it off. Try and watch the final episode of the first series because its just one of the funniest things ever!

One of the best British comedies ever. I can't agree that Ben Chaplin was the only good Matthew, in fact I rather liked Neil Stuke as his "double-hard bastard" routine was even funnier than it was with Chaplin who looks like he could actually be hard if he tried. I can hardly wait for seasons 2 and 3 to come out on DVD. Does anyone know when they are supposed to be released? I'd be very grateful for any information.

If you tell him I will spank you, I will spank you like a bad, bad donkey, OK?

I think this is a forgotten gem. I rewatched it recently and forgot how funny it is, not to mention so many great cameos. Launched so many careers. The characters are perfectly written and perfectly cast. I first thought it should have carried on for more series' but actually it would have become boring and repetitive. The fact that they recast Matt didn't seem to have any detriment whatsoever. Both are equally funny in their own way. The whole show hasn't aged at all and the jokes and situations are all relevant nowadays. Soon, I'm sure someone will remake it which would be great but for the time being I love it. If you haven't seen it I would strongly suggest you check it out.
