As much as I loved the earlier LOG stuff,
it unfortunately became a franchise that followed the law of diminishing returns.
Some of the subsequent projects by those involved haven't convinced me that this will turn out well...

Inside Number 9 is very hit and miss,
But it's good to see the television play format being given a small revival and a bit of risk taking by the writers and commissioning editor.

Indeed,
but I think that the strengths of earlier incarnations of that format were that they generally weren't all written, directed and acted by the same people.

Aye.
I thought the one about the restaurant bill was good though. The one about the crossword was almost good. The karaoke one was bad.

And Psychoville?
Don't get me wrong, I really like the guys, I just think they demonstrate the limitations of their abilities all too often.

Psychoville series 1 was superb
except for the last episode, which really felt like it had been rewritten hastily when they were given a second series.

Not a fan of the second series?
I don't really remember a drop in quality.

All the gags were there with interesting characters but I don't think that the story really held its own.
That said, I really do like the majority of what they do, happy to forgive any occasional lapses, and this is good news in my eyes.

I am and I agree, series 2 was excellent and I'm glad there was one
it's just that end episode of series 1 just felt like such a fumble its what annoyingly sticks in my head.
I should probably watch it again and change my mind completely

I resent Gatiss
for casting himself as Moriarty. He's a horrible ham. Whenever I hear him say "brother mine", a violent rage comes upon me.
Inside No 9, however, is fucking excellent: best thing any of them have done.
