Anyone else finding this brilliant viewing? I love it haha. You can tell Peter and Sian Gibson are good friends...am sure some of it is improvised. It is just such a good, well written laid back comedy.Watch out for some of the signs..very subtle

It's beautifully observed and acted; what PK does best, rather than a) his stand-up these days, which is frequently just old material, rehashed or b) dressing up as a girl and trying to sing.

One of the few comedies we've genuinely laughed out loud to in a long time.

I just hope they don't cop out and end it on a romance, which is how it appears to be heading.

I don't think it will. I am hoping due to its success they might commission a Christmas special. Seeing as John is in charge of the christmas team..and we would get all the 80's and 90's xmas music lol

I'm not into Peter Kay.

I can't relate to him.

I think he's only funny if you can relate your life (growing up etc etc) to his material.

You're right, those bits are shite, which surprised me when they didn't have one in one of the episodes when they were going on about Carol Decker!

Phoenix Nights was brilliant. This is reasonable, but I do feel if it didn't have his name plastered over it, this would be a BBC3 comedy. As it stands it is amiable enough.

Not sure how local difference affects humour to that extent, in a country less than 1000miles long, that has had one main language for 1000 years and a homogenous culture for 500 years.

Local prejudice might though.

Yeah something's are only relate to a region, but if this is the only reason you can't enjoy somebody's humor, then there are 7B other people you could never enjoy.

Ok that went way beyond PK, but I hate the North/South thing, it makes us weak against our international competitors.

Having one stupidly big and powerful city is no longer helping us....

IIt doesn't have to be a North/south competitive tthing. Most countries with more balanced economies than ours have strong regional identities. I think it would strengthen us to make more of regional identity against the London takeover.

He speaks to people, not everyone, certainly not you. Why do his standup tours sell out, why do his audiences cry with laughter? I think he knows what he's doing. Its one of the reasons a lot of the other comedians bitch about him. (I'm talking to you Rufus Hound. Get back to celeb juice).

Back on track.

I think the show is fabulous, considering they are in the confines of a car and no other props, the banter and use of facial expressions are spot on.

Right from the start with the bottle of piss, through to the dogging scene each show brings laughter to all.

I see a little bit of romance coming, but it will end in tears at the Xmas do.

Johnny Vegas is pretty good live. He's a bad compere, but a good closer as long as you can get him off the stage.

There are regional differences in humour, but also in a town, one chap (Joe Lycett) can storm it in one pub, but not do so well in another.

A lot of the best humour needs a dark or morose edge. Did you see the Doyle Family episode where Nanna died? I cried at that, but there were laughs in there too. A lot of American stuff us just one wisecrack after another. Funny, but ultimately formulaic. They tend to written by a large team of scriptwriters and it shows. No depth of character. And we don't use canned laughter to prompt us when to laugh.

I wasn't a big Peter Kay fan, but this is pretty good, given that it's pretty much just the two of them in a car.

It's fairly inoffensive, doesn't use too many set pieces and has scope for a bit od ad-libbing between the two, and overall is not too bad at all.

I know what you mean but even 'House of fools' I think is canned. I think they both are along with other things, I dont have a problem with that. I dont watch Mrs Brown as again I see the punchlines coming, while it is Irish, it gets nominated in UK Comedy/Tv awards so I class it as ours.

I think PK is a genius, not in everything he does, I read his autobiogrpahy and even that had me laughing out loud I'd give 'car share' 7.5/10

You might be right about adding a bit of canned. My mate and his Mrs went to watch house of fools being recorded. It was funny but it was five hours recording. They had to do a lot of retakes as its a lot more technical than people think. Matt Berry kept everyone amused though, as he did his lines completely different elwith every retake.

"Sooooo boring! Where are the jokes? As ever US comedies like Bad Teacher; Two BrokeGirls; Goldburgs; Marry Me are packed with jokes and sentiment too. Why do Kay, Ricky Gervis and the people behind No 9 make such sentimental, dark, slow & humourless soft dramas? More bellylaughs please "

Sorry but I find American comedy basically unfunny tried watching 2 broke girls, modern family. scrubs and others and they struggle too raise even a smile?! The only good one is Everyone Loves Raymond and that's not new stuff!!

This new Peter Kay is not his best work but at least you get a laugh and there's always something in his shows you can relate to in real life!! Which man (and maybe woman) hasn't inched forward in a traffic queue to sneak a look at the pretty woman / man in the hope of getting their attention!!
