    Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict
    InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
    Payno I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
    nightwishskillet The show hinges around crude humor and an absurd level of cruelty towards the generally useless protagonist. While often forced and awkward, the show does make use of it's otherwise clunky and unnatural pace to make amusing meta-jokes that let the tempo seem intentional. If you can handle a show that falls back on displays of melodrama and grossness to launch most of its jokes, (though intermingled with witty one-liners), you'll likely find this hilarious.
    viverito This show is so twisted and hilarious. I started watching it thinking it was a traditional period piece only to find it was a demented twist of the whole romantic genre. Double entendre galore. I can't believe this show was created by a woman. Julia Davis must be a hoot in person. She not only created and wrote the show but also plays the part of Dorothy the sadistic housekeeper.
    trez1 If you are a fan of 19th Century Gothic movies (e.g., Rebecca, Jane Eyre) or Jane Austen period dramas you must see this show. Along with great writing and comedic acting, this show combines a wit and satire and love for the genre that is just wonderful. I can't recommend this show more highly. There were moments I laughed so loudly I thought my downstairs neighbor would come up to see if I was OK. Impeccably done with a deadpan humor that is unique and sidesplitting. As an American I am new to Julia Davis' writing AND acting, it is COMEDY GOLD. I also very much appreciate the feminine perspective. Every actor in this show deserves accolades but Rufus Jones' Dr. Foggerty deserves a special mention. The use of classic music in just the right amounts was also brilliant.
    cjmastermixer My new guilty pleasure. Love this wicked, funny series. I hope they do a second season!The characters are delightfully messed up, the writing witty and clever. Julia Davis steals every scene with her devilish smirk and deadpan delivery. The pastor is my next favourite, laugh at loud lines coming from his mouth.The writers did a good job of building such complex characters in only several episodes. They are so flawed but still likable. If you are a fan of period pieces and humour, you will love this. Not to be missed.
