I thought it started off quite amusing
but had definitely turned shit by series 3.

Very Very Not Funny
..and they are kind of responsible for Catherine Tate...
And the New Mitchell and Web Show being less funny than it should have been.. (Although their old Sketch show was superb)
Everyone is chasing the Little Britain Ratings...

They are Very Funny...
But don't you think Numberwang/Snooker chaps and some of the others might have been Funnier and more effective appearing less often in the series rather than every time?
The first Episode was Ace though.
Edited y'know

I reckon they were being Pushed.
Repeated characters and Catchphrases...
But they are very Funny Performers...
and I reckon they've got a long career ahead...
Peep show is near perfect.

The snooker blokes turned up in several episodes of the radio show too.
And it's not as if they were just there trying to crowbar a catchphrase in. they started off with 'oh and that's a bad miss' but they were there as characters with different things each episode.
It's not the same as a contrived set-up just to wind your way to a catchphrase.
See also Ted & Ralph - repeated characters, repeated phrase (the drainage in the lower field) but it wasn't all about the catchphrase.

They were in the Radio... and they were good...
Just reckon they suffered from being on every episode...

I think they did a bit in the TV series.
But I still think it's not the same thing as Tate or Little Britain. There's nowt wrong with re-using characters if you enjoy writing for them.

Nowhere near as Bad as Tate or Little Britain...
Very True...
The first Episode was painfully Funny...

very this^
10 say catchphrase
20 pause
30 goto 10
Series one was good 'n different - best character was Ray McCooney

but writing for him involved some work, so they resorted to the formula above......
