Not Going Out Season 6 Review and New Series Preview

Season 6: Episode 3 Review

Not going out returns from the ski slopes back to the comfort of Lee’s flat to continue the comedy genius.

Last week’s episode was slightly disappointing due to the confinement of the cable cart. I know you are normally confined just to the flat in certain episodes but last weeks you found that there was a lack of factors the characters could interact with other than the pregnant woman.

This week’s episode, titled ‘Therapy’, stars the usual cast of Lee, Daisy, Lucy and another appearance from Lee’s dad. Lucy starts taking up classes in Psychology and Therapy and eventually Lee uses Lucy’s new skills to patch up his troubled relationship with his farther.

This show is currently one of the funniest shows on TV and that sarcastic and quick witted comedy is what makes the show, this episode doesn’t fail to deliver on the comedy front.  The show has enough puns to try for a world record and responses to questions are ninety percent of the time answered with sarcasm. Yes jokes can be predictable at times but it still keeps you laughing.

In parts of this episode such as where Lee asks Lucy to guess what disorder he is describing and when Lee has a personal therapy session with Lucy you get this constant reel of quick witted comedy. It is hilarious and this is what the show does best.

Overall if you don’t like puns being fired at you for 30 minutes then this isn’t for you. But if you are willing to endure half an hour of laughing out loud and at times side splitting comedy then this show is for you. The show seems to be dealing with the loss of Tim very well and his serious like tone not missed. Yes jokes are predictable but listening the how everything is presented by Lee Mack is the penultimate factor that helps deliver this sitcom as comedy gold on TV.

I would seriously recommend any one to purchase the previous series' of Not Going Out, they are arguably more funny than season 6 and well worth the money.
