From: Remi Category: TV Date: 04 September 2008 Time: 01:07 PM Review: First saw their 'business time' song on youtube and it took a while for me to work out that they were actually a tv show. The youtube extracts did not show much of the show itself. Was concerned that maybe i had built up an idealised picture of how funny they were from their parodied songs. A bit like a trailer being better than the film, remember Crocodile Dundee? At first, didn't get into the humour, but gradually got into their world and found them as funny as the songs. They are excellently supported by their manager, their groupie and all the minor characters generally. They have tapped into the humour of how being unattractive can be a great source of humour. Hope that lovefilm will send me the second set soon.
