Pulling

I came to this from 'This way up' and one episode of 'Catastrophe'.

The bulk of episodes were filmed around 2006 and this (imho) captures much of the zeitgeist around the noughties and the anxiety around being in one's thirties. Which incidentally was the decade when I too was a 30-something.

Sharon Horgan, Rebekah Staton and Tanya Parks play characters compriing the trio of women trying to play the hands they've been dealt whilst battling their own (and their other halves) demons. There's plenty of early noughties nuance here (clothes, music) which I love! A great supporting cast and scripts makes this a must watch in the UK comedy cannon.

The writing and cast are brilliant and some sequences will leave you howling and gasping for air! In particular, Tanya Franks, as the alcoholic, completely inappropriate teacher, steals every single frame that's she in! Why she hasn't been invited to play in more American shows is a complete mystery. She's one of the best comedic actresses on the screen.

Absolutely hilarious sitcom on BBC3 that revolves around that great British hangup with casual sex. Superbly written, directed and acted this really is laugh out loud comedy! I still haven't seem all of the episodes and I cant wait for the DVD. I only hope that this gets another series (or 2). My favourite character has to be the girl with the big drink problem (her name escapes me at the moment), her drunken antics have had me crying with laughter (damn, i hope I don't behave like that when I'm drunk!!!) LOL This really has to get 10 out of 10 from me, its great that there is so much new comedy coming out. What with the GLORIOUS Nighty Night, and the very pleasant Jam & Jerusalem, there has been so much to watch on TV recently.

I finally got to see the first two episodes, having seen the buzz in the press and heard about it for ages. It did not disappoint.

There were times in each episode when I roared with laughter. The break-up scene in episode one is so funny, and when Donna (played brilliantly by Sharon Horgan) is trying to bluff her way through a meeting in her new job in episode two I felt like my sides were literally splitting.

So dark at times it's harrowing, yet flat out outrageous and subtly nuanced at times too. This series is definitely cult classic material. I know I'll watch the DVD over and over.

This BBC Three series is a very funny, dark sitcom set in suburban London. It's about the lives of three very different women who are friends. The acting is very good, and many of the situations they get into are hilarious.

This was very well-written by Sharon Horgan, who also plays one of the three main characters.
