Well I downloaded episode4 after I read that Noel Fielding was in it Smile. As I love The Mighty Boosh I thought it could be an improvement and it sort of was.

Good: Noel Fielding playing a goth, he really showed up the other actors tbh. I even actually laughed at some parts.

Bad: Picking on another stereotype? (goths)
I relate to goths as I am/was seen as one by people.
Anyway I thought there were some bad points like locking goths away in a room??
Also the audience laughing at "goths are people too" ??
what's so funny about that??

I think it's the only good ep so far, but that's just because of the guest appearance. A lot of the humour was really bad.

I have to say tho I have been in the position of getting stuck under a young ladies desk while fixing her computer altho she did know I was there.

*yay I just got an email saying my order of the mighty boosh season1+2 was shipped* Smile

Whoa, is hell scheduled to be frozen over, todstein actually liking an episode?!?!?!

Well done Channel 4, you have acomplished the impossible.

I have only watched the episode once, so i will have to watch it again to get a full analysis.

On first viewing of Episode 4, my faith in the series has been completely restored. I thought Neol Fielding's character was excellent, although I wouldn't say he showed the others up, and I was glad that the equilibrium of "the rainforest" was restored at the end. I tentatively introduced a friend to this series today; he loved it and I'm looking forward to re-watching the fourth episode tonight (friend is also into Black Metal but I'd be very surprised if he took offence).

I think the humour is meant to be in showing up the ways people sometimes react to one another?
