Surreal...

Fascinating little show, still turns up in the UK every once in a while. Only 19 episodes and a further unaired one?  Shame, really as it had quite a lot of unexplored terrority to go over, such as Dash X (or as Mitchell called him "Plus and minus") and exactly where he fitted into things.  I dare say if it had been left to run, like all good things, it would have explained itself, or at least gone off on a tangent.

The 'Reality Takes A Holiday' episode is by far the most surreal and bizarre episode of anything I've ever seen on TV (although some of the stuff that comes out of Japan and turns up on Tarrant On TV comes close).  The 'Reality Takes A Holiday' episode basically starts calling everybody by the names of the actors.  So Mitchell turned into Omri (Omri Katz, the actor name), Simon turned into Justin (Justin Shenkarow) and so on.  I honestly thought somebody had given the broadcaster the wrong tape and we were actually watching one of those so-called "end of year" tapes that find their way onto shows like Alright On The Night and Denis Norden.  But its one of the highlights of the entire run though.
