Max & Paddy's Road to Nowhere

I RECENTLY WATCH THIS SERIES AGAIN AND I HAVE TO SAY IT FUNNIER EVER TIME I WATCH IT. I LOVE PETER KAY ANYWAY. THIS MAYBE 17 YEARS OLD BUT I'LL NEVER GET BORED OF THIS SERIES.

THANKS FOR READING MY REVIEW. =) TO QUOTE RAYMOND THE BASTARD - STUNNING LIKE A YOUNG BURT REYNOLDS.

We last saw Max and Paddy, the dimwitted bouncers from the Phoenix Club at the end of series 2 of Phoenix Nights. The two had been hired as hit men, but didn't do the job and instead paid off the person they were supposed to be killing. Max spent the money on a camper van and when the lady who hired them finds out they go on the run fearing for their lives.

Max, played by Peter Kay, is the quieter of the two, but probably the more intelligent. Paddy, played by Patrick McGuinness thinks of himself as God's gift to women - quite an opposite to Max.

The first episode, as written by Kay and McGuinness showed itself to be funny and refreshing. New jokes, new stories, and a new direction for Kay - this could be his first sitcom based outside of Bolton! Thats not to say basing a sitcom IN Bolton is a bad thing mind.

Max and Paddy's Road to Nowhere looks like it could be a good solid comedy and I look forward to seeing more.

Peter Kay returns with the funny Patrick McGuinness taking a prominent role in this side splitting comedy - he has come a long way from his bit part as a curly haired muppet in Kay's The Services.

I was laughing from start to finish - with the spoof of Dirty Dancing just incredible. Surely a scene that will be discussed and mimicked for years to come.

Anyone who enjoys Kay's previous shows and those who enjoy light-hearted humour will love this series.

A must!

Long Live Paddy and Max.

Probably one of the best British comedies ever. The plots are crazy, almost slap stick, I've watched it with my son many times and we find it hilarious each time.

When i first heard about 'Road to Nowhere' i initially thought it would be a let-down, but i found it to be a great laugh and throughly enjoyable.

It was very funny, and both Kay and Mcguinness were fab. It was very much side-splitting comedy, and everything from the opening credits to the background music, max's "how dare you", and the pig in episode 5, all made me laugh.

I do agree with other users' in saying that noticed more things the second time i watched the episodes, but this is because i knew what had happened, so inevitably you'd notice things more.

In all i was very impressed with 'Max and Paddy's road to nowhere' and i can't wait for it to be released on DVD, and for another upcoming series (fingerz crossed.
