[Majikthise]

100% agree, god I can't stand it when this show comes on. The British voicing makes it even worse. Look around you and The Mighty Boosh need to go back to the UK and let us have some quality shows.

[SinicalEndingACLC]

omfg this is really the worst show ever. it's so dumb. they really should take it off the air.grrrrrr

[vegasjunkie88]

LMAO, am I going to have to be the person who defends this show?

Well I'll admit the begining of the series was quite bad, but it seems mid season

they did a format change and then the show became hilarious.

Obviously...some one likes this show or it wouldnt be on the air.

FVCK THIS SHOW

I think it is an age thing.  I am not saying that kids are stupid.  OK, they are.  But that is another thread.

I think that only people of a certain age are actually familiar with the types of things that "Look Around You" was spoofing.  I am not that old, but far enough removed from high school to actually remember **BLEEP**ty let-the-video-cassette-do-the-teaching programs and the even worse public broadcasting science educational programs that were not Bill Nye.  (As the kids wonder who this "Bill Nye" bloke is).

I think it is like "Family Guy" were some people are too young to understand the references (they are not jokes, so they are not missing out) and have to run to wikipedia or txt their friends "hu iz karen blak?"  The premise of the show is based on an understanding of a cultural form that is much different now if it exists at all.

i agree with jeff and two things bill nye is was and still is the S_H_I_T! and look around you is harlious! with the episode about "maths" there was not one second that was not funny

[O_Gz]

It's possible for people not to like this show. I guess. I'm sure most of them are just scenesters.

Either way though, if you don't laugh your **BLEEP** off at Sulphur, ('ulphur.... sulphur! Write that down in your copy books now.) you do not know what comedy is, and shouldn't be watching a comedy station.

[WhitePowder]

that episode was funny

[Kid_With_The_Face]

i liked it a lot

[Elco]

I also strongly dislike this show.

[Shadow_Puppet]

::::The more you know:::::

[Crohns]

I agree.

[Crohns]

Fvck it hard.

[RUMZOMBIE8]

i'm not gonna try to bash the show or some**BLEEP**, but it just didn't do it for me,

there could be something else that would make more sense to waist brain power on,

try more deathnote.

I gotta say, I am not a fan of the show by any means; that being said I've gotta give you props for your well articulated and valid points.

[InuyashaFreak24]

it has intellectual humor to it

[123412twertwe]

It's definitely for older people. You have to get British humor too.

[conform]

NO, IT IS GOOD

[sasburger]

Very sad when you DON'T GET the humor, not smart enough, i guess.

British Comedy takes more than a little kid hitting his father in the **BLEEP** with a baseball bat.

Its SMART. So you would have to BE SMART to get the comedy of the show.

If you can't handle television that isn't IN YOUR FACE COMEDY that a monkey could figure out then don't watch british shows.

Period.

[InuyashaFreak24]

i don't understand how that is a command.. but it is a good show

[lucyinthesky16]

man, sampson, you just travel around all the boards spreadin' your hate seeds?

what DO you like?

lemme guess....family guy --_--

[Majikthise]

He's the Johnny Appleseed of hatred.
