# It's hard to remember now how that show took over the country for a while,
but even tho it seems daft and puerile looking back, it was without a doubt, bloody successful, if flogged to death towards the end...

# Oh yes
but I didn't like it. Not really my cup of tea.

# That's fair enuff!
I loved it at first, then it seemed to just keep eating it's own joke and puking it back up again and shitting on it for good measure.

And there's only so many cheap laughs you can get out of guys wearing silly glasses, acting camp and saying 'fisting'.

# It happens, it's that old problem about the battle between creation and sales,
'Wow, an original idea that makes us money, lets do it again, and again, and again, and... why isn't this making any more money?'

# *takes off glasses*
*rubs bridge of nose*

Bo'selecta is the same for me. Overrated tosh for the proles to easily understand and honk at whilst their cold macdonalds chips come out of their nose all over their copy of 'literacy for the over 30s'.

:D

# boosh was good
but isn't any more.

The radio series had a lot going for it ... (without a doubt Rich Fulcher is the best thing in the Boosh)

# Boosh just never did it for me.
Trying to be far to clever for its own good, and forgetting the laughs along the way.

# See, I didn't mind the Boosh at all
but the 3rd series wasn't up to much- they'd started to listen to the hype about themselves and complacently thought they could shit on a dinner plate and still be considered funny.

Well, that's what I think, anyway.

# weirdly
I've increasingly warmed to the Boosh after a slightly "meh" start.
the opposite of my little britain experience
which went "ooh funny." "ooh repetition of funny" "ooh, fuck off."
