Tripped

Why would you guys stop after just 4 episodes? Just getting into the twisted plot line and character variants... and boom it's done. The station announcer voice says..."well that's it for this series..." I went..... "Oh crap... you gotta be kidding me!?" Perhaps there was a micro budget. Perhaps it was seasonal filler. Perhaps the writers ran out of good ideas, but for gosh sakes don't let things like this, and other great shows like Cilla, and Home Girl, and especially Bluestone 42 come to their ends before you milk every last bit of fun from the characters.... okat maybe Cilla was a finished story... but the young fab four weren't done. This show is worthy of more enjoyable exxloits... PLEASE!

Tripped is a science-fiction and comedy TV show from Britain. The science-fiction fits squarely in the parallel universe subcategory, while the comedy fits squarely in the stoner subcategory.

Parallel universes was my main motivation for checking out the show. I've been a fan of such stories since watching Star Trek "Mirror Mirror" as a child and then later on with such shows as Sliders. On the other hand, I am just not into the stoner genre.

With that in mind, perhaps it is no surprise that I had mixed feelings about Tripped. I don't want to give any spoilers, but I actually liked the main plot behind the parallel universes. However, the stoner comedy alienated me entirely. It was a bit too slapstick and silly for my tastes.

Never-the-less, I still laughed out loud at a few moments and the underlying story is interesting, so I give it a slightly better than average rating. Fans of stoner comedy might get a bit more amusement out of the show. For something more serious, I recommend checking out the Netflix film and backdoor TV pilot called "Parallels".

After the sad demise of Misfits its good to see a new sci-fi series for adults.

How would you feel, your life is a mess, your best mate chooses someone else to be best man, then when you get home really weird #### starts to happen.

That is the slow start, but after that it is fast pace roller coaster of a ride.

Parallel universes multi you's, some good, some downright weird, is it real or are you still Tripping?.

Also there is a good, old fashioned mystery to solve.

From the first episode this looks to have a lot of legs. If the rest of the series goes on like this one we are all in for a great ride.

About the first 4 episodes! I pray for more. More series or movies produced to this extent of human expression. I love sci-fi and a good hip stoner comedy too, sure why the hell not! Are you serious?

The beginning of episode one is stellar.

I really liked the use of all alter reality personalities, I really felt like they were different people. Hilarious too. All of it really well done.

I thank you. Hell I rather not give anything away. As a person who enjoys great quaint and/or frank British humor. CHECK IT OUT!

Premise: It really hits home the 20something year old, witty British weirdo kid is abandoned by his only friend basically to be the hero of the show by re-uniting them and saving the day, basically. Instant cult classic.

Iconic as fkk. A movie for our younger generation in this age, or anyone that wants a good laugh.
