I'm positive that the writers of this show were out to prove how ridiculous the entertainment business is but more important they wanted to make people who watch anxious and annoyed and they do it perfectly. I could not get through it. It is the most aggravating thing I've ever seen. The only characters who are somewhat normal are Hugh Bonneville and David Tennant as the narrator. Im guessing their lines are there just to bring you back fom the brink. It is very difficult to watch. It creates anxiety and annoyance and hatred for the people who run this fictional version of the BBC. One could use this program as a mental torture device but it would be cruel and unusual punishment and probably illegal. Most of the script is designed to provoke this sense of unease , uncomfortableness and agitation but delivered in the guise of comedy. It is genius in that way but if you suffer from anxiety or depression or anger management i warn you this will ruin your day and you'll run screaming to your therapist for more meds.
score 7/10
