Definitely one of the better comedies in recent years, not laugh out loud funny but there are some great actors and if you like daft plots and dont mind it being a bit predictable, it's very watchable and enjoyable.

After reading the reviews I decided to watch this. Oh dear!! It was either reviewed by the shows writers or by people who watch reality TV. Absolute crap. Infantile comedy for idiots is the only way that I can describe this load of poo.

The only thing worse than a show that doesn't make sense is a supposed comedy that isn't funny. So James Buckley gets transported to parallel universe by wearing a bracelet that was being shipped in that universe but somehow ended up at his house. Seriously, that's the premise. I knew I should have stopped watching at that point but I didn't. I made the mistake of trying to give this show a chance and five episodes in it hasn't gotten any better. I don't mind that it doesn't make sense, I can deal with that. It's harder to forgive it for not being funny. To make things even worse the running story line is him trying to get home. Which we know won't happen. Even sadder is that they always open with his former co-workers being glad he's gone and foreshadowing his return. And the parallel universe is just silly. It's the middle ages with a bunch of weird animals but they all use modern day British slang. I see that a lot of people here compare it to Red Dwarf which is funny for two reasons. First, Red Dwarf sucked so that explains why this sucks but more importantly, why would you want an unoriginal show? I wish I had more hands so I could give this show four thumbs down.

I watched about four and a half episodes of this, because it was kind of cute and I thought it had potential, but rather than digging deeper into the absurdities of its world, the series just kind of does the same sort of jokes over and over. The cast is fine in that broad English style. The premise is perfectly workable. And at first I was kind of taken by the low-grade silliness and the world building.But as season 2 started, I felt like the series was already out of ideas. And during episode Mad Darts I just thought, why on earth am I watching this? It's all so predictable and unoriginal. And so I stopped in the middle of the episode.
