I've seen two reviews, one in the Guardian and one in the Telegraph and they both give Sick of It 3 stars and I would agree with that.

Thought it was okay. Might take a little while develop, though Pilkington himself states that this is not a comedy.

Will stick with it and see how it grows and develops.

Watched the first one and got bored, didn't watch the second but wife said it wasn't much better.

There's no actual point to it.

Yeah, interesting isn't it. I thought it was just okay, but it has had some absolutely fantastic reviews.

Don't get that at all. Fine that some rate it, but the gushing, best show of the year praise, I feel is slightly unwarranted.

Will stick with it and see where it goes.

Watched the 3rd and 4th episodes last night and enjoyed it a lot more.

Think you just have to get it out of your head that it's not supposed to be a comedy as such. Once you get past that and stop expecting the great one liners every two minutes it works well.

Got a lot of depth to it and is making statements on mortality and the search for happiness and reflection upon the past.

Last nights episodes were definitely better. I think I'd prefer it without the aunt, not sure if its the character or the actor but not really working for me.

She seems a very poor actor. Unsure of herself and not coming across as genuine.
