Peep Show

Peep Show-quite simply one of the most original, inventive, interesting and hilarious TV shows out there.
A brief overview: Mark and Jeremy are some of the most realistic and familiar characters I've seen constructed. Mark is a nice, well meaning, intelligent and funny bloke that has a tendency to let people walk all over him, settle for crappy situations and not complain about them. Jeremy is the kind of selfish, childish hip and hedonisitic git I'd fall for. On the surface they seem like people you know, people you can't help but like. Underneath they're even more recognisable and disturbing which creates a uneasy yet strangely comferting sense that we're all pretty f*cked up...
The strength of the show is its first person perspective-the camera is actually postioned on the head of the main characters for the most part (makes kissing scenes very weird) and you are privy to their secret thoughts which get darker, more sleazy, selfish and embarrasingly accurate to real thought patterns as the show continues.
Mark and Jeremy's lifes are full of bad decisions, dysfunctional relationships and frustration and just when you think it can't get any worse, it does. Big style. This sounds depressing. Its not, its hilarious and strangely comferting!
Sample: Jeremy's new hippy girlfriend instigates a threesome although Jeremy ends up being left out.
Jeremy: (thinking) This is great, this is just like a porn film! Although i can't see anything...I haven't got a hard on...and I want to cry.
Sample:Mark is trying to woo a co-worker by reading her emails. He discovers she likes him and is happy but she then finds out what he's been up to.
Mark: "Oh come on you can't dismiss this because I spy on you! We could have something special...your words not mine!"
(thinking) I am in the abyss. I have bought a house in the abyss. My post is being forwarded to the ayss.

Check it out. You'll laugh through your fingers that will cover your face in horror, trust me.
