Game On!

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?

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 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!

I bought the box set recently, and was happy to realise that the show is still really funny. Matthew Cottle is hilarious as Martin, the subservient saddo, who has a funny fascination with women. Samantha Janus/Womack is perfectly cast, as she is very sexy and beautiful, so she drives the guys crazy with lust. Her character(Mandy) also has issues and quirks, so she's also fun to watch. Then you have the character Matt, played in the first series by Ben Chaplin, and in the second and third.. by Neil Stuke. Ben Chaplin did a great job, and I thought he was better in some ways than Stuke, simply because you could believe he used to be a girl magnet, because he's good looking and pretty cool, whereas Stuke doesn't look like the kind of guy who'd have women swooning over him.

Chaplin's character was more serious, but I'd say more believable and in some ways funnier. Stuke plays Matt as more madcap and much dimmer, and he definitely doesn't have the authoritative air that Chaplin gave the character. Stuke still did a great job, and changed the Matt character a lot, but I can forget about Chaplin, and just enjoy what Stuke delivers.

Overall, the series is a true '90s gem, that is still worth owning and enjoying.

This show is a completely under-rated classic! Matthew Malone is one of the funniest comedy sitcom creations ever and show go down in the books next to Cosmo Kramer and all the other greats. Mandy is hot and poor bloody Martin, what a sad tosser! Its a shame they stopped making this show cause I love it, my fave Matt was Benny from the first series but his replacement was wicked too. An all round great show and one of the best of the 90s. Gotta love the themetune too. If you dont know this show too well then go check out the re-runs.
