Better than Peep Show in my opinion. PS seemed a bit too infantile at times, while this has a great story line. Good writing, with funny "down and out" characters. Especially Webb makes a strong performance. A must-see for Mitchell fans.

I think it has been satirical enough and revealing. Especially the plot where Stephen thought he killed a boy when he was 12 but Andrew assured him that he didn't- people forgot what happened when they are young, or their memories have errors, like when your parents or classmates told you that you have done something in the past, you can't recall it AT ALL. And of course the ending when Mitchell persuaded the woman lost her husband that it was him who found the body. He is less and less confident about himself and his way of communicating with people. Apparently it was not just the woman. It was HE with EVERYONE. I can so relate that sometimes I think my manners of communicating are so lame.

Totally loved it! I am a huge fan of all of their collaborative work and Back is no exception! Beautifully written, with great acting from all the cast, obviously Mitchell and Webb are brilliant, and it is interesting to see Webb take on a slightly different role to what we're used to with Jez. Mitchell's character could well be Mark in an alternate time line, but is great none the less. I just came on here to check if there were any more episodes but sadly the first season concludes at 6. I should have known being a British series but still, I need more! Can't wait for next series, I'm sure it will develop nicely.

I didn't really enjoy the first episode but obviously continued to watch the other 3 in case it picked up. I still feel the same way after episode 4 but slightly more intrigued to see which way it's going to go. Jokes are mildly funny. I think I went in expecting the same sense of humor Peep Show had. I don't really like or care for any of the characters in it besides the main men. i'll continue to watch and update my rating if my opinion changes. Do give it a go though, each to their own and all that...
