# I wouldn't say that...
It's just that their sketch show is dreadful, and no-one seems to rate the film.

Gavin and Stacey is still brilliant though

# I've still not got around to watching that
I dipped my toe into Horne and Corden, didn't really do anything for me. Bland sketches based around very shoddy writing
/humble opinion only

# Some of their sketch show stuff is OK
I enjoyed the Born Again Christians until the song, and the "I shagged your mum" sketch.

I think they've got potential to be quite good.

I know everyone in tellyland is wetting themselves about them because of Gavin & Stacey, but I still think they're good.

# Tellyland is wetting themselves
because they are popular with affluent teenagers who will spend money on mobile clips and whatnot

# Well quite.
The same reason pop music is, er ... poplier.

I think Nirvana put it well entitling one of their songs "Radio-friendly Unit-Shifter".

# Exactly.
He could have at least OD'd.

# Those are my thoughts too.
Finally caught up with Gavin & Stacey over the last couple of months on BBC3, and loved every minute of it.
It's a shame about their sketch show, as I think they had some real potential. I found James Corden hilarious on 8 Out of 10 Cats and Never Mind the Buzzcocks. The film reviews I've seen are, without exception, damning, so I'll steer clear.
