Stuttering start but gets going nicely

A bit of a slow starter but 2 and 3 just got funnier and funnier keep going.

Enjoyable, but could be better

Some funny moments, but it almost feels as though they don't want to go the whole Carry on hog and let fly. I think this is due to the woke world we live in today, and the fear of not wanting to offend anyone. They should learn from Gervais and Chappelle and just go for funny.

Wasn't this supposed to be a comedy?

Just didn't seem funny at all which is a shame because I liked first one Blackpool express, unfortunately they seem less funny with each new season. Going to give it a try next week to see if it improves.

Mindless, but it matters!

While this show is in fact not going to win awards, it is a wonderful little side track from our current hectic world. It is cute, funny and one does not need to be of sound mind to enjoy. I really like the Comedy and the who done it is gravy. I highly recommend for the laughs.

Dreadful

It's about as funny as a fire in an orphanage ,I honestly think 5 year olds would struggle to find something amusing about this .
