Dead Pixels

Niche comedy probably best enjoyed by gamers, although the humour feels fairly inclusive and more rips into the central character's life choices. You would expect a series purely about one fantasy game would be quite limiting, but each episode does feel different enough whilst providing a series arc.

The laughs definitely come from Nicky and Russell (a role really evidently made for Jamie Demetriou - as seen in Avatards - but still brilliantly played by Mumeni nonetheless), with Alison providing a funny outside view. The concept of Meg is good, but doesn't provide many laugh out loud moments. Still, really easy watch, funny for the most part, and pretty original.

If you're a gamer, you'll love all the in jokes. If not, you'll still love the subtle humour. Best comedy in years IMHO. Not one for Vince Vaughan fans though...

I can see this series being re-commissioned, it will be interesting to see how these characters develop. The first couple of episodes seem a little forced, but by episode 3 I was really quite enjoying it. If you haven't seen it, give it a try. Well worth a watch.

Have just watched the 1st episode. Absolutely hilarious.

The in game antics balanced against the gamers real lives - spot on.

Can't wait for next week.

This series is funny and rude and ultimately hugely enjoyable. It's about people coping with their boring jobs by existing in their favourite violent game show as graphic animes where they live their "real lives". Loved it to bits
