Very entertaining
GenX American, who got into the Mighty Boosh really late (past year). I ran across Matt Berry and found his character from season 1 hilarious. I stumbled across "The IT Crowd" and Berry once again delivered. My wife and I are having a great time watching older or current British comedies and "Toast" is one of the funniest."Toast of London" is a light hearted comedy with Berry playing an over the hill thespian, theater type whose always getting himself into a jam. Most things revolve around paying the bills, landing ny sort of acting/voice-over gig, sleazing around, or dealing with his family. Mix in a pathetic roommate who kills it, an agent, his stage nemesis (Ray "fin" Purchase), Purchase's wife, & Clem Fandango, and you have yourself a solid show. The actors are outstanding and the writing is cleaver enough to keep you engaged.
The one thing I hate about many British shows, they end too early. I know, it may be better to end strong but many of them leave me wanting more from the characters. Let the trail of Boosh characters lead me to more entertaining shows.
score 8/10
