Days Like These

That '70s Show is a wonderful show that I wish lasted longer. The characters, jokes, and running gags were very funny! They were unforgettable and hilarious. So then I come across Days Like These. It's a spin-off of That '70s Show. Days Like These not very funny, the filming is awful, and it wasn't memorable or fun! Thank god it only had 1 season with 13 episodes(3 weren't aired on tv)!

I saw about 10 minutes of this rubbish a few days ago, and I must admit I thought it was some comedy sketch show doing a parody of "That 70s Show". Unfortunately for me, and for the makers of this "thing", I was wrong, it's actually a real programme. Its the british version of "That 70s Show", all the characters are the same only way worse, the most pathetic thing being that they've tried to make them all look the same as the American versions, why on earth they've done this I don't know, its very, very sad.

The real "That 70s Show" can be quite funny at times, but this thing is more of a drama even though its supposed to be a comedy. Don't get me wrong - its about as dramatic as an episode of "Working" with Fred Savage, what I mean is a kick in the groin would be funnier. One of the main reasons I thought it was a parody was because I thought the character Donna was a man in a wig, I can't begin to explain how ugly the actress who plays this part is, Peter Griffin said it best - "aaaggghhhhh - did somebody open the Ark of the Covenant?????"

As far as I know this show has been cancelled and all the actors sold into slavery as a punishment. It still isn't enough though, I'm pushing for all prints of every episode to be force-fed to the writers of this bilge until no trace of them ever existing remains. Harsh but fair I think you'll agree.

I like this series. Not every detail is exactly the same as That 70s show. I like the episode where Prince Charles comes to visit. I also how Red (Ron) and Kitty are even more quirky and Red is not as rude. Grandma is even likable in this version. I wish that they made a Christmas episode. I found these by accident and became hooked. Make up your mind for yourself and don't rely on other opinions. I will admit that some of the character actors are difficult to get used to, but after awhile I got used to them and started to like their portrayal. This is really a cute show. Give it a chance. You might be surprised.

As I recall, this was basically a knock-off of the excellent American sitcom "That 70's Show". It was the same idea, but done in England. Different actors, a few slang terms and place-names changed to fit an English audience, but other than that the episodes (at least what I saw of them) were a total knock off. But whatever it was that made "That 70's Show" (a first-rate show, by the way) so much fun, the "chemistry", whatever, wasn't present in this version and naturally it comes off contrived. Like the American version of The Office, it just doesn't work because its not the real deal. Lightning doesn't strike twice as it were...

days like these came before that 70's show. I saw it in 1998. when that 70's show came on to tv in 2000, it was identical. although i do prefer that 70's show actors as they are more watchable. days like these was set in luton.
