Mandy

Seaon 1 and 2 are great, as you probably know the character is basically Philomena Cunk looking for a job. The first two seasons are surreal and funny with a few moments where we are expected to suspend our disbelief.

Whereas with Season 3 it seems like we are being asked to suspend our disbelief for way too many episodes.

I really get the feeling that Diane is getting bored with the character or is just trying to see how much she can get a way with.

Episodes in Season 3 I thought were decent.

Episode 3 was fun and had some snooker jokes in there for the....snooker fans.

Episode 6 for the most part, goes back to the season 1 formula, and it works.

Basically it just feels like for a lot of these episodes someone said "what if we did this..." and no one said "well that makes no sense and is too stupid, there's no parody in that. What are you trying to do? Get the show cancelled? Oh that is what you want?....ok...you CAN walk out on the wing of the flying plane... twas nice while it lasted"

If you like your comedy broad, short and simple then this may be the answer. Mandy runs through her confused life creating surreal chaos in short 22 minute episodes. Loved the poisonous spiders sneaking through on the banana shipments. Worth a watch to see if it your cup of tea

She is brilliant as a comedy actress, but I just can't get on with Mandy. Too much face pulling gets a bit annoying. 🙄 Her other roles are fantastic, like After Life and Cunkt she's amazing.

Mandy is mental. Both the character and the show.

Proper belly laughs from both the dialogue and Mandy's squinty pouty mouth thing.

Great cast, snappy 15 minute episodes that leave you wanting more and the always amazing Diane Morgan.

Diane Morgan is a genius!

Another series would be most welcome. Keep the 15 minute length as it fits surprisingly well and makes sure neither Mandy or the storylines outstay their welcome.

Possibly my 2020 comedy of the year!

Diane Morgan absolutely brilliant as the hapless Mandy. Funniest comedy I've seen for a long time. Poor Mandy always has good intentions and ends up getting it spectacularly wrong. She's like a cross between Frank Spencer and Grumio. I do hope there'll be another series.
