The IT Crowd - Blu-ray Forum

Secretagentnumber6 · 08-28-2009, 12:53 AM

Anyone else a fan of this British series? I just finished the second series. While it is extremely British humor, I think it can appeal to most people even people who do not enjoy Brit humor. Series 3 is coming out soon, and I am really looking forward to it. Only on regular DVD by the way. They actually had a pilot of a US remake that did not get picked up. Also if you watch The Mighty Boosh you will recognize a few people in this one.

I have been a huge fan of this show since early '07, sadly I feel like I can relate to Moss and Roy, I'm like a lonely IT guy.

SecretAgentNumber6 if you like this series, you HAVE to check out Garth Marengi's DarkPlace, it's awesome!... and actually I like it a lot more then the Might Boosh.

Love the IT crowd, the third series is great and they are shooting the fourth series

Brilliant to watch and I can relate to Moss and Roy to much.

DoctorFruitloop · 08-28-2009, 11:24 AM

Have all 3 series and love them. Consistently good episodes, and great characters.

Douglas was a fantastic addition to the cast, his antics in episode 1 of series 3 are legend.

"So you want me to sit on my arse and do nothing? I'm you're man!"

"You know I don't think I've ever looked in this drawer...... Wow, a GUN!"

If you also like this kind of humour, Graham Linehan who writes IT crowd also co-wrote Father Ted, fantastic humour.

I will have to see if I can find Darkplace. I also still have to watch more Mighty Boosh.

Just bought the DVDs for my Dad the other day, he had seen it in England but I got them off of Amazon. He loves it and tells me to watch but I haven't yet.

I thought this was a tread about computers...

I was a big fan of Garth marenghi and love the IT Crowd, my wife turned me on to it. really takes off with series 2 and 3

luwanda · 02-04-2010, 07:56 PM

Im a huge fan of The IT crowd, but, i like more even Black Books, which i highly recommend to anyone who enjoyed with the it crowd, its a bit older (2000 or so) but it was made by the same director (among other one).

FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER!!!!! !!!!!! hahahaha

arykmax · 02-04-2010, 07:59 PM

I've watched the first few episodes on Netflix instant but haven't really gotten into it yet. The first few have been hit or miss for me so I assume it gets more consistent from what I am hearing.

Teabaggins · 02-04-2010, 08:20 PM

because of the IT Crowd and Garth marenghi I've become a big fan of Matt Berry.

has anyone seen Snuff Box, any good?

Matt Berry is awesome in that show but the other guy gets on my nerves.

Although I do love that song he sings "I'm a rapper with a baby... with a baby... I'm a rapper with a itty bitty mutha f***in' baby... yeah, don't say maybe... cause I did it with a lady"

Secretagentnumber6 · 02-05-2010, 06:36 AM

I sent my friend the three series on DVD and he is quite enjoying it. It is very british, so you really have to understand that humor to love it.

partridge · 02-05-2010, 07:52 AM

I'm very new to IT Crowd but it is one of the funniest comedies ever! Such good writing and acting

Cheerupemokid · 02-05-2010, 10:00 PM

I'm pretty new to it too. Watched the first three episodes on DVD via Netflix. Trying to pace them out, watch like one episode a week, since I know there's only so many episodes to see and I don't want to exhaust the series too quickly.

I do love it so far though. Fantastic stuff, glad I went with it as one of the first shows in my "watch a lot of UK TV shows" kick.

BarkingGhost · 02-06-2010, 11:58 AM

I just watched a couple of episodes that I DVR'd off of IFC. I find it funny.

luwanda · 02-08-2010, 08:00 AM

It gets better and better as it moves on, and then you find yourself upset because it has so few episodes and you want MORE.

I insist, check "Black books", its basically the same bit in a book store

That's exactly why I'm taking my time watching the series. I don't want to rush through it, though already I can tell I'll be rewatching it after I'm done anyway.

I do have Black Books on my netflix queue as well. Looking forward to checking that out. Thanks for the recommendation.
