    That part when they first head off in the limo, singing born to be wild.....followed by a 20 point turn haha. Episode 3 is a classic.

    seen the ads for it...........what has put me off is that he's tried to re-create the famous "fall through the bar " trick from only fools & horses, but this time using a drinks machine.

    Funny NOT !!

    First three episodes are online if you know where to look/are a buccaneer. "Fab" eh? Was your wife posting on your behalf :)

    Downloaded the first 3 and watched the 1st last night. Decent start, definitely has promise. Its basically Darren Lamb from Extras living in LA.

    Excellent comedy.

    Always tried to watch or listen to anything which has Merchant in it, brilliantly funny guy.

    Copying the Del Boy bar scene was a shocker.

    having read the build up in this thread I was disappointed with the 1st episode - I'll give it another try though

    Now watched all 3. Its ok, nothing more. Perfectly watchable, but too many repeated themes from other stuff he has written.

    Saw the first one last night, thought it was average but watchable.

    Will definitely give it a go. Nothing that made me really laugh but thought it was alright. Did like the bit where he got stitched up for a massive round, been there myself a few times!

    Episodes 2&3 are better than the 1st. Cracking stuff.

    Just seen the first one and it seems a bit like Merchant trying to become Brent. Some bits were snigger funny but some bits just made me think no one would actually do that. I wasn't a massive fan of the office and not sure I will be a massive fan of this but I will give it a few more episodes.
