Come Fly with Me

[Blackadder]

Watched this tonight. Don't know if it's the best part of two bottles of Shiraz inside me but I found it funny. Looking forward to the next one.

I thought it has great potential, easy target to spoof and some great characters.

 

[Biscuit]

I really wanted to like it but found it a bit racist and just generally unfunny. Royale Family on the other hand was superb!

 

[Blackadder]

I liked the fact that a lot of it was so politically incorrect. The asian guy trying to pull the hostess in his "wheels" (buggy) made me laugh out loud. Anyone who has ever flown Easy Jet or (especially) Ryanair will know exactly where they are coming from.

A load of tedious asanine shite.

And I can't be the only person who finds blacking yourself up and acting to stereotypes unacceptable.

Posts crossed. It was a bit racist but I found myself laughing where I probably shouldn't be. (I have been on the red). Caught the end of Royale family. Don't normally watch it but I laughed at the ashes in the dyson and the guy being forced to proposing to his girlfriend because he had told so many people his "secret"

Royal Family was total quality, shame we never see Denise and Daves kids though

 

[Barrel of Fun]

I thought the Royle Family was quite poor. They've lost their subtle attempt at humour and were trying too hard.

Come Fly with Me was good in patches, but hardly extending themselves.

The Royal Family episode was nothing on the previous ones. Why did Joe have to sing again? The last time he did it was fantastic, this time round was pointless and almost seemed like it was to waste 3 minutes.

Come Fly With Me wasn't bad though, some of it definitely brought back harrowing experiences of airport staff.

Never a fan of the Royale Family but was rather amused by Come Fly with Me, looks good.

Thought it was a pretty good start for Come Fly With Me. Plenty of potential to develop into a funny series.

I watched most of this before I gave up. I agree with you it's not acceptable to me either, I thought we'd got rid of this nonsense years ago.

Royal Family was brilliant. CFWM I would watch if its on but would never buy the DVD of it.

Both the above programmes had their good parts my kids thought come fly with me was really funny, they were pissing themselves while my wife and me just looked at eachother in bemusement at a couple of the scenes but it has potential.

But surely the programme last night up for a serious car crash award was the The One Ronnie, anyone see that? Christ alive so unfunny it wasnt true and although a great admirer of Corbett I think he needs to retire on that evidence, his voice has deepened somewhat recently and he has lost those lovely inflections in his voice as well which doesnt help but Jesus the material was appalling. Barker would have been turning in his grave.

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

Come fly with me? Meh. The odd funny line but pretty thin.

Tenth repeat of the Blackadder Christmas Special had me laughing far more and I knew every joke already.

Thought come fly with me was funny but some of it was a bit cringey

 

[magoo]

Come fly with me was appalling! Think i sniggered once. Sketches were either just not funny or totally predictable. Looks like Lucas and Walliams have disappeared up their own arses and no one has the guts to tell them they're even less funny than they used to be.

Royle family was a lot better. The Desmond Tutu/Shaun Wright-Phillips line had my lot absolutely pissing ourselves.

 

[BRIGHT ON Q]

I loved the Royle family.thought CFWM was good as well.

Saves me writing it! What a sack of absolute shite!

Watched Blackadder again last night. (Well I would). Love it! Especially the end bit when he turns bad! Think I've seen it twice in the last couple of weeks.
