Peep Show is brilliant. Series 2 is my favourite, it features Mark self-harming to get Sophie's attention and accidentally making friends with a neo-Nazi. It's hilarious. I'm not sure where you can watch them for free though. You saw series 4 on OD? Maybe they'll be putting the later series up later, then? I think you can get series 6 (the most recent) on OD but maybe it depends where you live.

Self-harming and neo-nazis! What gets me is that these characters get themselves into these situations and somehow think "yes! that's the answer!"

I don't mind buying the DVDs, particularly as I like to share the shows I love, but it's easier to do that with VCDs of downloaded stuff, because none of my friends have region-free players. I think OnDemand will continue through later series, but we are impatient! And we want to see S2 and S3 (we saw the last couple of S3 actually, also OnDemand).

Thanks for the link! The vids don't work for me because I'm not in the UK, but I was poking around series descriptions and see that there's a baby on the way! Mark with a kid! Uncle Jez! That's terrifying! :D

It is really painful. It's funny, I could never watch the UK The Office because it was too painfully awkward, so I'm surprised every time that I love these as much as I do.

I identify with Mark when he tries to have a normal conversation and fails entirely. I've been there too many times! D:

Mitchell plays him so well, if I hadn't already seen him in interviews, I'd wonder if that's really what he's like!

OK, I guess I'm the weenie amongst your friends, because I made it to the guy taking a bite and that was it for me. Weirdly, if it had been a person I would have been all "Yeah, yeah, it's just TV," but I can't deal with stuff happening to animals.

I'm SURE you're not the only one, which is why I warned for it. I don't know why I can watch it, but I really enjoy it some how. :)
