    Firstly, do not pay any attention to one of the reviews submitted by 'Tickle Fairy' - if you read it, just laugh to yourself when this person slags off not only the show, but the actors 'failing in life'.The show is fantastic. Written beautifully. Unpredictable - unlike most American shows. These four actors gel so well together.I love how you can re-watch this show with the same hope each time of how you want it to end. It doesn't end necessarily how you would guess it would.Great acting. Funny, sad, clever - creative! I see a recurring theme with some of the reviewers - they all seem to hate the fact that this show doesn't follow a predictable route. Those with a creative imagination, gets it.10/10.

    The pilot was great. Original and ended on a cliff hangar. The second episode contained some nice moments but too many cringe worthy scenes and predictable moments. In the 3rd episode the cringe inducing moments had taken over and I gave up. Life is too short. So I have no idea how it wraps up but it had such promise and I did like the actors. Basically for me the script let them down. I subsequently watched the first episode of the US version and although I haven't yet given up on it, I'm wondering if it will be more of the same but in a different setting. A lot of people will no doubt like this sort of TV series but it wasn't for me.

    There's not really that much to say. Utterly ludicrous, very silly and very, very funny. This might not be to everyone's taste. but if it isn't to yours, shame on you. Four great actors, a great script, and an ever-worsening situation they find themselves in for a number of reasons, all of which makes sense for about a nanosecond, and then only go to drop them in it even further. Oh, and some great dialogue.I especially like how these four guys, who are hopelessly out of their depth, react whenever their situation gets worse and worse. There are no slick Hollywood escapes, just four guys like you and I busking it as a situation they don't at all understand gets ever more complicated.It all takes place in the Med in the sun, but that's just the icing on the cake. I have no idea what is going on (I've only so far seen the first two series), but I don't really care if nothing is resolved. I'm not at all bothered about arriving, because I'm enjoying the ride so much. This is a gem, a hoot and something Cris Cole and his acting mates should be proud of. Go on, spoil yourself, but if you're American be warned: it's a damn sight better than many dramas that have come our way from the U.S. of late. Gross-out, synthetic humour with formulaic clichés it ain't.

    Bit slow to begin with but its worth it! It mixes funny with scary! what a story and with great actors! I hope there is a season 2!!!! It was daring and hilarious and the same time! The end of the first episode really sets the scene and as it goes on you start wondering how on earth they are going to get out of this situation! The situation builds up and up and up and you are on the edge of your seat in the last episode. God knows how season 2 will start but as long as it has the same writers i don't doubt that it will be amazing! Never seen anything like it! Wish i could erase it out of my mind and watch it all over again!! :)
