Man, Chris Morris was genius with this and Brass Eye also. That weird dreamlike surreal quality the scenes have mixed with dark comedy was a mad thing to see on channel 4 many years ago. The "piecing together a holistic puzzle" line just fucking slayed me haha.
I once stood next to David Cann in a branch of Ikea, where he was with his wife trying to choose between two clocks. I couldn't resist saying "it's nice, but not the same".
Where can comedy go after Jam?...This is as "on the edge" as its possible to get...Those who know Chris Morris's work can but wonder...those who dont have no idea what a maverick he is...The word genius is often used but seldom has there been a more worthy reciever of the title...Kudos also to a superb supporting cast...
It's not particularly warped or evil though, it's a satircal look at the biind levels of trust doctors get without any scrutiny whatsoever, essentially a sketch version of the famous sarcastic saying "trust me im a doctor"
@@ciaranperry4677 Still though, relative to most Jam sketches, it's oddly wholesome. Only relative to most other Jam sketches though lol. Still deeply disturbing and exactly a commentary on what you say it is.
I named my album after this show. It's called Four Appointments with Doctor Jam and it has 4 tracks: Piecing Together a Holistic Puzzle, The Chair Opposite My Chair, Tie-Mounted Chin Coolant Sachets, A Finger Bell To Dispel A Nasty Silence. One of the reviewers complained that the titles were new age and pseudo-philosophical. I couldn't stop laughing.

"I'm piecing together holistic puzzle"
