11:51 That is still, to this day, the greatest delivery I've ever heard of that line.
I occasionally just say "Damn these electric sex pants!" in a bombastic voice. Very therapeutic.
Douglas reading the car magazine and getting tazed is an underrated comedic moment 😂
Definitely one of the best F*&k off's in TV history.
Never fails to make me laugh out loud when Douglas turns round and tells all the religious leaders to "feck off!", then the sound of Moss rebooting is the cherry on top.
Moss rebooting kills me every time 😂
God damn these electric sex pants. One of my favourite lines of all time!
I do my fair share of "People. What a bunch of bastards" myself.
I think that does reflect a difference in lifestyle and the comments we relate to!
In the UK, tramp means homeless person.
Or an insult to a woman and usually another woman saying it
@@Salfordian That's unusual in the UK. It means homeless person over 90% of the time.
@@andrewjones575 Nope I've heard women itch with other women with the "she's a tramp"
@@Salfordian I've got to agree with Andrew here. Obviously, I too have heard it here in the UK as an insult to a woman, but that's very much an American import word, and relatively recently. That meaning was created in the USA. No one would dispute that is also a legitimate modern definition of the word, but in Britain the word tramp has always referred to a homeless person.
It came about many years ago when 'vagrants' were not allowed to sleep in the same place twice and had to put a certain distance between one sleeping place and another. This led to them having to spend a great deal of every day walking, or 'tramping', between towns and cities.
It’s usually only as, ‘She’s a f**king tramp!’ 😅😂❤
It took me ages to realise it was called the IT crowd. I was calling them the it crowd until 💡I realised they work in IT so of course it’s pronounced Eye Tea
Yes, but what does I. T. stand for?
Ah Guided By Voices, huge fan for a long time. Big smile on my face every time I watch this episode.
"Even MORE provocatively" 👊🤷♂️😂😂😂💜
Moss is my spirit animal
See you didn't need to worry at the end of the last episode, it was all intentional and addressed at the start of this one🤷♂️😂
Moss was amazing this episode tho,especially with concussion 👀👏👏😂😂💜
Oh man, you're gonna love Garth Merenghi's Dark Place, Black Books, Man to Man with Dean Learner, Brass Eye, and Year of the Rabbit.
Toast of London is hilarious.
"Look Around You" would also be worth checking out
And Big Train
Toast is definitely Matt Berry's best work (outside of his proper music career).
@@frankshailes3205 TOL is brilliant; why has it never been popular? Most people I mention it to haven't heard of it.
"Who wants tea?" Will make any Brits day a little better. 👍
Moss restarting after being blown away by sex pants was so frigging hilarious 😆
A long non-Monday, then I smiled 'cos I have this treat to cheer me up.
Chris oldies has gone on to films (Bridesmaids, Gulliver's Travels) and Richard Ayoade and Richmond , Noel Fielding are on a bunch of Brit game shows, hilarious, too!! Ayoade has been on Graham Norton many times.
Chris O'Dowd.
I love how you correct yourself when you say season instead of series😂
I've been an UK assessor for IT people, and these on the IT Crowd have a big ICT room but it's pretty much accurate for IT people. You get whacky, intelligent people who just pretty much love electronics and don't mind working in shit environments as long as it's IT and they get to goof about with electronics. It's a weird world.
Have you tried turning Moss off and back on again?
Matt Berry p!ays Douglas Denholm is in THE TOAST OF LONDON and WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS (hulu) and hilarious!!!!
please react to Ted Lasso!
Yeah that's that's a good one 😁👍
Do you like Stewart Lee?
The next episode makes me roll up every time.
Also a clear example of Linehan's transphobia
@@curtismurphy6206 Rubbish he just doesn't share your opinion thus must be canceled
@@curtismurphy6206 thing is, I never saw it as transphobia. I always saw it as pointing out the ignorance of Douglas. Douglas finds a woman he really clicks with and is really happy with, but his own insecurity/ignorance stops him from having a good happy relationship.
@@curtismurphy6206 I don't recall anything about the episode as transphobic. Just because there is a trans person doesn't make it transphobic.
@@Joseph-R I totally agree with you. I know Neil won't see it that way though, he will hate it, I can't decide whether or not to watch.
The next ep, The Speech, is one of the best & most popular. C4 have removed it from their website & haven't broadcast it for years.
That is one of my favourite, funny as 🤣🤣 its on dailymotion
i need... to weewee!
I don't know if this is common knowledge now but mb in the 1960s there was a phrase "the 'it' crowd" and it basically meant the celebs of the day, ie the people who were 'it'. There were a whole bunch of phrases that old farts like Graham Linehan (and me) would have internalised but which are now long forgotten. This would have been already on the cusp of memory when The IT Crowd first came out and used I.T. as pun.
I remember the song "I'm in with the in crowd" and also "it girls" who were famous for being famous and not much else.
@@frankshailes3205 Yeas, mb I'm conflating those two things :-)
@@chrisofnottingham possibly but I'm with you, I think the it crowd was an actual phase too.
You didn't turn it off there and miss the final end credits gag, did you?
I.T. Crowd... Black Books... League of Gentlemen...
I believe the reason given that this episode wasn't aired as the first of this series, even though it follows on directly from the series 2 finale, was because of Moss being concussed and out of character for so much of it, which was felt to be a bad way to start off a new series.
The writing, acting and direction of this series is absolute gold compared to the trash that The Big Bang Theory is, with it stupid laugh track after every single line spoken.
By the sound of it the next episode is the one with a trans character but please don't be distracted/offended by it and concentrate on the speech thread as Jen gets to borrow the Internet is the funniest aspect of this episode
Hopefully you'll manage to get hold of next week's episode, which was pulled by Channel 4. I don't think it's as bad as some of the others in the series frankly - the offence caused is more a commentary on one of the characters than any kind of statement being made by the show itself I think. I understand why it was pulled though!
C4 are wrong to remove it. It's one of the best eps.
@@andrewjones575 unfortunately that's the world we find ourselves living in, people can't seem to understand the concept of an absurdly overblown character designed to be laughed at for their absurd views.
It's really tragic that this episode got removed, as you rightly said it's one of the best, the Moss,Roy & Jen storyline is one of the very best.
@@deano2506 I suspect the show would still be up if Lineham hadn’t gone all super anti-trans.
Tbh the only real issue in my eyes isn’t about Douglas but just the very over the top personification of a trans women which i don’t think is transphobic but just outdated
@@NJH01 How should April have been portrayed?
Without taking sides, I'll just point out that the next episode (The Speech) features a trans character, so it's definitely a damned if you react/damned if you don't situation. I can't offer advise because I genuinely don't know what I would do. Good luck
He has already seen it. He's on season 4 on Patreon.
There are plenty of very popular tv shows that aren’t shown any more for various reasons, usually values or attitudes that just haven’t dated well. And they were apparently very funny at the time. But even in the cases of the shows that displayed racist or homophobic content I don’t know of any comedy writer who so dedicated themselves to attacking a minority group as Mr Linehan.
Nice reaction! Glad to see you're adopting a more open minded approach.... although your phrase "I'm willing to laugh at that" is still a bit concerning. Laughter surely is/should be a natural spontaneous response to a funny situation... not something that requires an internal debate over whether you're allowed to or not. Anyway, very much looking forward to your reaction to the next episode: hoping you can take it in your stride and appreciate it without any mental gymnastics, or will you have to rename your channel "Neil Preaches"?! lol Good luck :)
Neil, in know you are sensitive to the PC culture that we have now and the controversial nature of Graham Linahan.
In Linahan's defense, he was a harsh critic of the Tavistock Clinic in London that provided transitional drugs and surgeries for people transitioning to another sex. It has been forced to close down recently for dubious practices and many ex-patients are suing them for damage done to them.
Graham was recently on GB News (I think it was) and the interviewer asked him if he felt exonerated now that the clinic was shut down. His opposition to what went on there was one of the causes of the backlash against him, as i understand. I think he is genuinely concerned about the plight of children who find themselves in this situation.
Despite the occasional controversial moments in this show, as seen through today's eyes, I will continue to enjoy this show fully, and your great reactions to it. In my everyday life I meet too many serious, unhappy people who are jaded and humorless. I vow never to be one of them. Much love from Ireland.
No. No defence for Graham. He's not in any way concerned about kids. He's a transphobic piece of shit and he's a disgrace to Ireland.
Much love, also from Ireland
@@curtismurphy6206 no he isnt
Graham Linehan has huge support here in the UK, its only a tiny microscopic minority who got him canceled
It's really not microscopic...
That minority are very vocal.
@@bromley001 It's a significant minority.
huge support? most people don't know who he is anymore
HA!
if neil goes woke as usual next episode i will unsubscribe :P
Hey Jack. If a differing opinion upsets you, you might as well unsubscribe now and beat the trickle.
Strange how the people who keep attacking those who don’t agree with Linehan are the ones who can’t stomach hearing any criticism of him or his work.
