Dan and Carla have seemingly reached the end of their relationship, she's working hard, he's content to sit about eating biscuits all day long, could the return of her ex, Maya be the straw that breaks the camel's back?
You'd think with the degree of pedigree, Morgana Robinson and Dylan Moran, that this would be something worth watching, let's be honest, it isn't.
I don't know what it is, it's described as a sitcom, only it isn't funny, there are no subtle laughs, no dark humour, and the only slapstick scene is excruciating, and like something from the 1950's. Neither is it moving, you don't get to know the characters, so you couldn't care less if they split or not.
It just doesn't work, maybe the 15 minute running time is the main detractor, it just doesn't allow for anything to develop or grow, I just couldn't get into it.
Positives......Neil Maskell stands head and shoulders above everyone as Pete, he is at least interesting, and that story goes somewhere, and there's always Clemens Schick, his scenes are enjoyable in a whacky kind of way.
Disappointing.
5/10.

I wound up watching this show by accident, and as it was the first ever episode I had ever seen I decided, to watch another episode straight after so I might have, a slightly better idea if its worth bothering with.
Initially I was surprised that the episodes are only barely fifteen minutes long, so l wound up watching more of them nearly all of Series one, but in retrospect it's a good job that they are.
I haven't seen that much of Dylan Moran hitherto and I had thought that he was not that bad, but in all honesty the more I see of him the less I think that is actually the case.
In this show he looks and sounds exactly the same as everything I have ever seen him in, its no better that he has actually written this stuff, because he can't blame anything on anyone else.
He must bare all of the blame for this dross, if this is actually the best that he can come up with, he may as well jack this comedy lark in once and for all.

It's a middle class couple living in messy shabby chic home working in advertising and doing meditating...not much else to say about it.
Dylan Moran is his usual dry almost depressive self.
He plays the same weary character he's so good at, making sarcastic comments about happy hip waiters etc
Morgana Robinson tries, she makes you almost smile she's got the effected voice and boho London look off to a tee.
The other characters aren't Worth mentioning because I can't actually remember them.
It's got that motherland feel to it, same dreary London streets. & pretentious cafes but unlike motherland it's just not funny, there's no laugh out loud moments not even a chuckle it all feels a bit dull.

The new sitcom from "Black Books" co-creator Dylan Moran gives an air of sophistication, but ultimately has very little to say. This seems to be a result of the episode length - at 13 minutes each, the credits roll as soon as the story seems to pick up the pace. It's almost as though full half-hour episodes were written, but sliced in half with unsatisfactory conclusions as a result. An even greater disappointment is the lack of funny moments peppered in throughout the admittedly well-written dialogue. Even strong performances from Moran and Morgana Robinson are unable to save "Stuck" from falling into inevitable obscurity. Sadly, it just isn't good enough.
Another show that follows the new trend to write boring bland programs. I am fully convinced that I could tape an evening at a random 50year old neighbors flat and it would be as entertaining, funny, dramatic etc as this. It would be much cheaper as well.
Just to be clear, there is nothing here to watch, characters are boring, there are no jokes, no drama, no nothing. I watched two episodes just in case the pilot episode was crap as is the case in even great shows these days. I will never understand why they keep releasing crap pilot episodes, that can deter viewers from even good shows. Five more words... to sum it up: BORING.
