Whats going on? Quoting my self - thats bad! And replying to myself - even worse! Still, I'm sure Oscar Wilde would have a witty remark to be made about such a situation...
perhaps you just wanted to emphasise the point. or are we on a loop back to the jack/tom identical twins thing?

I beg to differ, I find a spoon in a cup of tea is always very helpful. *nods*
All she needs is therapy. All she needs is love, is all she needs.
It was a bit rude for me Also got annoyed that all the characters in each sketch were different yet looked and spoke exactly the same e.g no characterisation. Got bored and switched to Q.I... Platapus's have poisenous eggs!?
I thought it was awful, the first sketch might as well have been Trigger Happy TV (i.e a phone call during a funeral/burial, OH THE HILARITY)
Just absolutely dire, makes me ashamed to have a spoon as my avatar on this forum (it is in no way an endorsement of this show).
The most surprising bit was seeing Charlie Brooker's name in the credits! As a writer!! I would expect him to rip it to shreds in his column in the Guardian's Guide, but now I doubt thats going to happen!
Truely awful, Shoot The Writers, all is forgiven! (not really, STW is still deeply unfunny, just funnier than "Spoons").

Yeah I got a bit confused by that, I kept thinking that each sketch ran on from the last one or something, I had to keep reminding myself they were separate!

I watched the triple-bill last night and didnt laugh once. think i cracked a smile now and again, but i guess it was ok cos nothing else was on.

I watched the three episodes on Saturday night. I liked some of it although they've pinched one sketch from Monty Python, the one where the guy gives a long explanation to the guests at a garden party why he doesn't like them. I don't like the constant repetition of sketches and some of the punchlines are too obvious but I still couldn't help laughing at times.
