Timewasters

I love an intelligent comedy, and this is one of the best! It takes a lot to make me laugh out loud this many times. It's original, with perfect comedic timing, and doesn't take itself too seriously despite the opportunities to call out prejudice. It's just fun and I love the characters are put into embarrassing and triumphant situations. Give it a try!

I thought the premise for Timewasters was innovative, the execution could of been a bit more thorough. As I watched all the episodes in one day, I was hoping for that climatic moment of relief when my hours spent watching feel worth the time which it did during musical scenes. I felt the episodes starting to drift off into mediocre bad children's tv. My rating of 6 might seem high, however that score is based on the concept of timewasters, the costumes and scenery and the musical elements of the show. Hopefully in time this show could be revived with better dialogue and episodes that lead to somewhere that make sense. After all I believe this show's audience is for a more mature audience.

Just binge watched Timewasters on Freevee 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽, love everything about it!!! Now I'm sad to learn and trying to understand why it wasn't picked up for a 3rd season??!!

If I had the means I'd pick it up for the 3rd. Those of us here in the States would welcome this historical comedic twist and cast of characters 😂😅😂😅

I wish this show was my idea! The writing, premise and plot are fantastic. In some places, it may come across as thin on jokes, especially if you're used to U. S. sitcoms, but overall very good.

Love the idea and execution of this show! I'm finding British shows are light years ahead of American shows when displaying grounded comedy from a Black perspective. While the cast is Black, the comedy is relatable to a diverse audience. Pleasantly surprised colorism is not present.

Time travel is not traditionally considered for Black characters, as one character muses that Black people don't have a desirable prior decade to want to visit. Overall, a light-hearted, witty comedy that I immensely enjoyed.
