View Full Version : Miranda
Does anyone else not find this programme even remotely funny? Why is it so popular and why is it on all the time? Someone explain the popularity, I'm sure I must be missing something :confused:
Its hilarious Jonny! :D
Probably might have something to do with you (as a man) not bei.g able to empathise with Mirandas 'character'.
Did u never have someone like her at school? I did :)

You are not alone Jonny... Tried watching it a couple of times, but like most modern 'comedy' shows, it turns out to be utter crap.
It's the only 'comedy' show that's made me laugh out loud recently. It's stilted at times, and it's obviously over-staged and her reactions are very over the top, but the funny bits are absolutely genius. Proper laugh out loud funny things that I suspect most women can identify with. It's a bit like the Young Ones/Bottom I reckon. Most men I know bang on about how brilliant that was, but I, and most of the women who I know, thought it was over-rated ****e & didn't even get a mere giggle out of us!
Not sure about it being on all the time - it's on once a week and this is the 2nd series, started about 3 weeks ago, so has about 3 weeks left.
Oh damnit! Am I missing the 2nd series!!! Fingers crossed its on iplayer!!!

It's grown on me and I quite like it now.
Reminds me of old comedies like Hi De Hi a bit. It's got that silly, bordering on farcial style to it and of course the end credits are just like comedies like that.

I've watched parts of it a couple of times and I've not found it even vaguely funny, ok so I'd watch it as a comedy show in preference to The Office but that's not saying much as the list of things I'd not do in preference to watching The Office is a very short list.
However in fairness to Miranda, an ex-flatmate was convinced I had no sense of humour - principally because we could never agree on what made a funny TV series.
Today's is not that funny!

haven't watched any of this series, just catching up on the first one.
