Hitmen

By far one of the more enjoyable British tv shows of recent years in any genre.

To see Sue (and Mel too I guess) actually acting rather than just presenting and along each other is a treat I never thought i would get and the characters are actually perfect for them. Mel is the oblivious woman-child and Sue is her long suffering friend and colleaugue.

The whole thing isn't really that dark, it's really more about work place comedy of a kind we don't see that much. Or maybe I'm just to far down the rabbit whole to see. Either way the scenarios are fun, well paced and tend to end satisfyingly.

It wouldn't be funny if they were 100% professional but I liked that you do actually see they are quite talented once in a while.

In the background of every episode is a sense of quite, routine desperation that never steals the show but helps make this perhaps the only truly Original comedy from my compatriots in the last few years and made damn fine Saturday morning entertainment in these unusual times (I'm writing during the Covid thing; hello future people!!!!).

And once again: love Sue and this made me grow to love Mel too.

Ghastly. Possibly the worst show I have ever seen on TV. Pull it and spare us the agony.

Struggled through episode 1. Infact turned it off before the end. However, I started it again with a different view and once you get that its not supposed to be laugh out loud hilarious, its supposed to be ridiculous. Then you'll enjoy it more. We shouldn't be taking these shows so seriously. Its lighthearted and fun. I really enjoyed the whole season. I binged watched it haha

I don't understand how some one can watch a first episode for 10 minutes then dismiss a whole season?

It's quite funny in places, maybe more smiles than guffaws but I liked the show and the two leads work well together, which is not surprising I suppose!

With respect to other reviewers, I think you've got to watch an entire episode to make an informed decision about the show. We wouldn't say we love it but it is entertaining, genuinely funny in places.
