House of Fools

Only reason it gets as high as a 2 is because of the godly Matt Berry, otherwise its just unfunny chaos masquerading under the guise of surrealistic tv. Can't fathom what motivates the actors to assume what they're doing onscreen could somehow be considered even faintly amusing much less comedy.

if you do not like Vic and Bob then you won't like this show and if you do like them then you'll love it. There is, of course, no real script to this 'sitcom' and certainly no reality to it!!

it is based entirely on the vivid and bizarre imaginations of the funniest British duo in the last 25 years.

Morgana Robinson is absolutely fantastic at being a creepy woman! if you like surreal humour with a hint of the maniacal give House Of Fools a go.

i'm going to give this show an eight

10 lines.

Five minutes into the pilot episode I wasn't too sure if I would like this new sitcom from Reeves and Mortimer, but it soon had me laughing out loud and by the end I was left wanting more. It's typical Reeves and Mortimer humor and won't be to everyone's taste.

The supporting cast are all very funny characters. Julie, their sex hungry neighbor,played by Morgana Robinson is hilarious; I wouldn't object to living next door to her. I'm curious as to how others will receive this sitcom but If future episodes are as funny as the pilot episode I'm sure I'll end up watching the series more than once. Great stuff!!!

Loved it. Think you need to watch it more than once though, as sometimes the surreal humour is a bit hit and miss first time round, and to the above reviewer Per 81 or something, Matt Berry has ALWAYS been funny, you've never watched the IT crowd thats why.

Loved Eric, bob's son, didn't realise he is actually Norwegian. Not sure about the sex mad neighbour, seems very odd, and whats with taking photos of men's crotches....'shudder'.

Vic and Bob back on form again, and so what, its shooting stars in sitcom style. Better than the unfunny Miranda and Mrs Browns boys.

Smells like lynx.

I read through some of the less favorably reviews on here and feel they may not fully understand what the show is about.

Vic and Bob are never what they seem, and either is their humor. If people watched the recent Christmas Special, they will realize that House of Fools is not only a Sitcom, but a little bit of a parody on sitcoms.

I really enjoyed House of Fools because it really bough together a lot of elements and styles of comedian in a gorgeous 30minute time slot- I instantly fell in love with the characters, Vic and Bob are Vic and Bob, but a little less surreal and convey themselves more as people rather than slap stick comedy characters.

For fan's there are brief moments of nostalgia as Vic and Bob write in some of their more memorable lines from previous shows. I did show this to my partner who isn't from the UK and who has never seen Vic and Bob and really enjoyed a good 30minutes of fun that doesn't take itself too seriously.
