Pramface

I have just finished watching all 3 series of Pramface on Hulu and I am very disappointed to find that there isn't (and won't be) a series 4. I often search the archives in vain to find, what I class as, a good comedy and stop watching the majority of them after just a few episodes as they are terrible. Pramface was well acted, kept me laughing and, best of all, kept me hooked. It had a very strong cast and I feel that it was good viewing for all age groups. I am 51 years old and have spent my life being entertained by Only Fools & Horses, The Vicar of Dibley and other great BBC classics like QI and Have I Got News for You etc and know a good comedy when I see one! I feel that the BBC commissioner has made a big error in not proceeding with this excellent show, while keeping other shows running that are far inferior. Shame on you BBC commissioner, you are out of touch with your viewing public!!

Bucking the usual BBC3 trend for hand-to-mouth budgets and scruffy single sets, this has a massive cast, gorgeous houses you'll want to nick decorating tips off and its low-level smut is cushioned by some genuinely LOL-worthy moments.

Setting its stall midway between the cringe comedy of The Inbetweeners and too-cool-for- school Skins, it stars two ex-EastEnders: Scarlett Alice Johnson, who you definitely won't recognise as Vicki Fowler, and Emer Kenny (minus Zsa Zsa's blue hair extensions and stroppiness) who you probably will, as well as newcomer Yasmin Paige.

On the boys' team are Dylan Edwards and Sean Michael Verey.

I could tell you which pair of teens end up expecting a baby by the end of this episode, but that would spoil the surprise.

A second series has already been commissioned. Quite right, too.

Thanks to the writers of this show. I got accidentally pregnant at 21 and the father was 19. We were too young and those years were a bit of a blur emotionally... the show with its humor is helping me negotiate old feelings and really move past it all. My son is my pride and joy and I'm so glad I didn't have the abortion, even though things didn't work out with his father.

Again, I'm just grateful to feel less alone, and enjoy the comedy and serious nature of the show all mix in! The actors are adorable... the parents are classic - I just feel like I can relate so much! I even tried alcohol and threw it all up just like she did! Brilliant.

Pramface is a witty and laugh out loud social comedy coming form the Brits and is targeted primarily at teenage audiences, but quite well balanced for those long past the target audience ages. Since the show focuses on such quite serious topics as teenage pregnancy, teenage parenting and the troubles and challenges of being a teenager and a parent while at the same time having to deal with one's own parents, but at the same time never fails to exaggerate and somewhat sketch such situations, there are many and many funny moments in this show.

Going hand in hand with another great British series (My Mad Fat Diary), Pramface is a high quality TV show, which manages to tackle serious topics with a laugh out loud attitude.

I'm rewatching series 3 as part of a general rewatch. In my opinion, it's got the same brilliant, funny, touching qualities as the other two seasons. If it's not as good as the first two seasons, it's very slightly less if at all. BBC should have stuck by it and let this excellent show continue to its natural ending. I sincerely believe it would have picked up more and more viewers as word spread in the same way as many other sitcoms eg Only fools and Friday night Dinner. It beautifully encompasses a large range of emotions from comedy to drama. What a shame the powers that be did not have the guts to back it up!
