It was superb... on a somewhat related note, does anyone remember the earlier series called "Jam". Now that was up! :D

Quite possibly the darkest comedy ever seen on TV. I can't imagine you could get away with that today, because too many people would be "offended". Brass Eye was positively mainstream by comparison.
 
I liked the meaningless graphs

He made egotistical TV personalities, media bosses and gullible idiots look like mugs. It was great :p

Can you imagine if they aired this show today. The triggering would be nuclear, it would be glorious.

You say that as though things like Black Mirror don’t exist, or comedians like Gervais or Lee or Boyle aren’t still in business.

It’s like you need people to be offended, or whatever, as though you somehow derive some justification from it. It’s very odd.

I saw some ridiculous thing on Facebook the other day. It was a Harry Enfield and Paul Whitehouse sketch and about 100 people commenting underneath that you wouldn't get that on TV any more because the lefties ********* pc brigade

The sketch was only 2 years old!
