I love it[u
Glad you enjoyed it that much it made you post here after a yrs absence. Welcome back.
And two years after The Thick of it has finished.
But, yes it is excellent.
The funniest thing I have ever watched.
The script gets all the attention but Tucker's descent into madness at, was it the end of the 3rd series? Brilliant that.
Veep's worth a look if you're suffering TOI withdrawal, there's no Tucker but some of the dialogue's the equal of TOI, grubby goings-on under a thin gloss of public service!
Thick of It is pure class. About half way through and its genius...
Another vote for Veep, some of the lines are just epic. "You love travelling and self-love, right? So why don't you **** off?"
The Thick of It is still unrivalled though; in its prime (S1&2 IMHO) it was just awesome. S3 was still funny, but while S4 lands a few punches, it definitely felt like a good time to call time.
Also don't miss In The Loop - some different characters but more Malcolm Tucker and his sidekick Jamie:
I know I've been a way a while but it's good to be back. Would have to say I think Jaime is my favourite character
