I have to disagree with the previous reviewer. They obviously don't have the same level of humour as me and hopefully you dear reader.
Monkey Trousers is not brilliant or clever but just simple easy to watch stupid fun. And that's it.
The sketch with the Vic Reeves as the hostage negotiator is pure genius. I have to show it to every one that comes to my house. Most find it very funny.
The "Gingery" claims sketch is also great and gets better the more you watch it. Last night I watched the latest episode and although it was not a great episode had some funny moments. Penny Smith with PMTv and the swearing chief which takes off the Hells Kitchen scenario.
On the whole, well worth watching and I can't miss it.

I own the double DVD set of this series so I've seen it a few times now...I know what I'm talking about.
I think you either "get" Vic and Bob or you hate them. Personally I love em. Always have..always will.
If you do "get" this brand of humour you'll love this series. The comedy acting is second to none...with Vic, Bob, Steve Coogan, John Thomson et al putting in top notch timed performances.
The character based format is perfect for all the actors....Vic and Bob's being the best in my opinion. "Croc Botherer" and the Vicar both had me laughing out loud again last night when I reran the DVD....I was on my own..should I worry? I'm adamant this is carefully crafted comedy material and not tosh as some have suggested.
Well done to all involved...let's have more, please! Cheers, Mark.

I think that any negative comments placed on this show are simply untrue. I admit, i have seen only one episode, but 80% of the sketches had me in Stitches. Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer still know how to bring on the laughs, they cover the right issues in todays world, and give them a truly good Thrashing.
Although, some sketches are plain silly, like the gunman sketch, where they send a man who speaks utter gibberish to negotiate the gunman's surrender, although daft, i thought was brilliant, when bringing on daft laughs, and thats what comedy is meant to do right, make you laugh? .... Another great sketch, is 'Crocodile Botherer', where Steve Irwin is the Target, seeing a Domestic Animal in the English Countryside, running up to it, and Squashing it, by Jumping on it, is silly, but, so very Funny. Granted, a few sketches, are a bit hard to follow, but, in the sketches, where they are portraying a message, you get it. An example of this, is the Compensation Advertisement, which gives the whole idea of 'Advertised compensation' over a silly accident at work, a good kicking.
This Comedy show shown on ITV2 does exactly what it is meant to do, and it brings on the laughter in spades. Well Done ITV.
