Black Books (UK) (2000 – 2004)

Tagline: Black books

Summary: Bernard Black (Dylan Moran) runs his own bookshop despite his dislike of customers and employs former stress victim Manny (Bill Bailey) to help him run the shop, encountering many hilarious obstacles with the help of Fran (Tamsin Greig), the proprietor of the store next door

5 Words/Phrases: Hilarious comedy; pitch-perfect performances from the main cast; lots of UK TV stars that had guest appearances; possessed a unique charm; annoying laugh track

Most Impressed By: The great comedic timing from Moran, Bailey, and Greig – they are all superstars of comedy for a reason!

Least Impressed By: The godforsaken laugh track often made things less funny than they actually were

Overall Rating; 9.5/10
