I wasn’t a big fan of Peep Show in the early days, I tried to watch the first couple of series but never really found it funny, Mark and Jez just annoyed me rather than made me laugh! This all changed in the 4th series when I managed to watch most the episodes and really liked it, and now the 5th series has just finished and I thought it was even better!

Peep Show is a truly unique comedy show. The POV production style helps you understand and relate more to the characters. The mix of the thoughts in their head and the expressions on their faces make for a properly funny program. The storylines are brilliant, and the phrases the writers wrap around the storylines have you laughing out loud throughout the episodes.

“It was old style paedoing, before it got such a bad name” Mark - Episode 4

Every episode there are several quotes which will have you laughing for ages. The great thing is they don’t use catchphrases like other popular comedy shows, catchphrases can get boring but Peep Show can’t suffer from this because the writers are able to continually come up with great lines.

Overall I loved Series 5 and am looking forward to series 6 which has been confirmed by Channel 4, Peep Show is definitely “Back In The Game”  - Jez, not that it ever really left! I rate Series 5 of Peep Show a very good 8/10.
