Spitting Image

The puppets were good but otherwise a dissapointment!

This show is terrible, I couldn't find one aspect or piece of the show that made it worthwhile or likable. I hope the ITV flushes the toilet on this show before it's stench starts spreading to other shows. It should be less than 1 star rated

Thought I'd give this a try with a free britbox subscription. Not seen the original series.

The show doesn't hold back, seems rather uncensored and raw at times but this is refreshing in my opinion. It cuts through the dire politics either side of the Atlantic.

The content is topical and there's some clever ideas though also some sketches that aren't effective. Lewis Hamilton is done well but Keir Starmer less so.

The voice acting isn't the best but with caricatures this isn't the focus.

It's not so much laugh out funny as some of the content is just cringe. It will offend but that's par for the course.

Judging from the first episode would giving it 7/10.

A poor reboot of the highly original series, mediocre writing and substantially less recognizable impressions limit appeal. Watch one episode you'll see what I mean.

A bit bland in my opinion, not as much passion and heart, and I know they're trying their best but it's got poor writing jokes that don't land and missed opportunities for good jokes in the scenes.

Lets face it, the only reason they've brought back the show after so long is because brit box obviously wasn't bringing in enough money for itv so they can now use spitting image as a marketing tool to get subscriptions.

To be honest the good bits in newzoids (which was a very good show when it got it right) are about the same level as this. It's frustrating too because I love spitting image and I see pottential in it but it just isn't delivering which is so sad to me considering it's already tarnished reputation from the 94/96 era.
