Alan Partridge........

Just finished watching the new series. It's alright, some good turns of phrase, but definitely doesn't bear comparison with the old stuff.
 
I’m rewatching This Time series 2 on iPlayer. I didn’t like the 2 episodes I saw of it this spring but perhaps it wasn’t the right time for me as I was a bit lost with grief.

Enjoying it quite a bit.

I found both series of that were better on the second viewing
 
It seemed to be exactly like that awful cringey smug One Show programme except the spoof wasn’t funny to me whereas KMKYAP was of the equally cringey chat show format.

I don’t think I’m a fan of this sort of show even in the spoof format. Disappointing Alan for me.

It still doesn’t work for me as a format.

I watched episode 2 purely for Cheeky Monkey, then switched off. I still don’t really get it, or like the other supporting characters.

I do think the issue is I don’t care for the format it’s mocking.
I would like to retract these posts. Rewatching over this week I’ve found it very funny.
 
Different pace and feel to the other stuff. Almost more like they’re putting him in situations directly analogous to his real life counterpart (that being Richard Madeley).

Glad you’re enjoying it now. :)
