i have had it recommended to me over and over, but i simply do not find it funny at all. yes, it has geeky jokes, but as a comedy and an overall tv show is utterly appalling imo.
compared to something like black books, which is just brilliant
- axod 16y agoI find it fairly funny. But I watched some of 'black books' and just didn't get that at all. Different strokes for different folks...
- lmaonade 16y ago<insert non-IT person> doesnt know <insert IT thing>, lololol it seems to be this joke over and over and over, i just dont understand ;[
- axod 16y agoThe first series especially was more to do with office politics/stupid boss/etc. Moss is a fantastic character, Denholm as well. It's fairly tame and mainstream though so if you like darker/more cutting humour it's probably not for you.
- pathik 16y agoMe. I saw the first episode and found it utterly unfunny. I would rather prefer The Big Bang Theory.

- joshbert 16y agoI think it is fair to compare both these shows, but we have to remember that they are funny on different levels. I love both The IT Crowd and The Big Bang Theory, but their appeal, while somewhat similar, is inherently different.
- dunk010 16y agoI felt the same, basically. There were a few very funny episodes, but on the whole it was pretty much "meh". I think that it mostly pokes fun at the it people, so it's not laugh "with" it's laugh "at".
- slantyyz 16y agoYeah I'm suprised by the popularity too. The jokes are way too obvious, even for non-techies, and the characters are overdrawn caricatures.
