This is ultimate proof that Graham Linehan is a comic genious and does not deserve being so badly treated as he is now, just for speaking his mind.

[@thecommenterppl]

This episode alone is better than an entire show of new tv shows that are still on right now. Tell anyone who didn’t watch it crowd to watch this episode particularly and they will start binging. That’s how I first started to be obsessed with this show, too bad it’s not on Netflix anymore, but thank goodness the official IT Crowd channel are uploading FREE full episodes on KZbin. Thank you to anyone who give the idea to upload full episodes, you deserve a raise. This episode is work of art. From start to finish is a masterpiece. The writing is so fucking good and the build up is just pure genius. The laughing track isn’t exaggerating at all, we literally laugh the same like them and maybe more and longer. This episode is a good example on how to make an actual funny sitcom show. Sitcoms nowadays aren’t laughable and the actors look like a fool for all the effort they did to be funny, it’s just come of as cringe. The show only has 6 episodes per season for 4 seasons and one episode of the grand finale on season 5. This show just proves that to make a masterpiece, you should emphasise on quality instead of quantity, just like Fleabag, only 6 episodes long season. If the it crowd aired today, they surely will get the Emmy for direction, writing, acting and show. Pure gold and masterpiece, but it’s still a cult classic and underrated. I hope by having full episodes uploaded for free on KZbin, more people can find this show. I feel like this episode is a good introduction for the characters of the IT Crowd though, even though it was the first episode of season 2. They carefully shows the characters’ personalities and characteristics though. Anyone that hasn’t watch the show, can get a glimpse of the main characters’ characteristics and personalities though. Like at first, we can see Roy, overjoyed for winning a lottery, but lost it shortly after, just shows how he doesn’t like to work and just want to relax but expect to get something like money from something easy, lottery. Then, when Roy and Moss wants to go to the toilet, Roy makes the “easiest” decision to use the disable toilet even though Moss said it is “illegal”, then he got in way more trouble throughout the night, just because he want to go his own way. There are circumstances coming his way when he tries to avoid the long hard road and do something easy. For Moss though, you see how incredibly quirky, naive and nerdy he is. He would say things like dreaming to be in theatre but also doesn’t have the interest to even go to one. Then you could see when he was caught using the staff toilet, he just goes on and put a uniform and just work as a staff of the theatre because he lied by telling he is one and just do as he told. He even answers the gay man questions so innocently and naive. Also throughout the play, he points out every single detail about it like an intelligent critic of something he actually not interested in at all, he is just that genius and nerdy. Jen is such a hopeless romantic and positive type of person. When Roy and Moss said that Philip is gay and points out all the signs and don’t actually want to date her, she denies it and try to prove that he is straight and into her until the very end of the episode and Roy and Moss are right. And you can see how Jen is like the big sister of Roy and Moss and need to take care of them 24/7, they got themselves in huge trouble when they get away from Jen even for going to the toilet and by using their own ideas and solutions without the help from Jen. And also we could see a little of Richmond though, one of the greatest recurring character of sitcom history. Just sad that we didn’t got to see Denholm though, another fucking great character ever written.
