normally i roll my eyes at people get offended by dumb things like the hitler chat show on "family guy" but the councelling scene hit a bit of nerve, guess cuz im looking for help right now and it just portrayed my fears about councelling services.......
still it was nice to see the cottager finally get some **** though
sticking feathers up your butt does not make you a chicken
The counselling scene didn't offend me, but it wasn't funny either. And they have done far more close-to-the-bone things than that.
I liked it that Jeff The First Time Cottager got a happy ending though. Hopefully that's the last we'll see of him. Not that I don't think the character is funny, but I think it's kind of run its course. I think they've done too many of Ivan Dobsky The Meat Safe Murderer to be honest. He was hilarious at first but there are only so many variations of that you can do.
And the Essex Lawndon guys. Run out of comedy steam, now just noise.
shareI think one of the funniest things about Monkey Dust is that every scene must strike a nerve with someone. Timmy's 'Dad' for instance (drinking Bleach).
The closest thing to this sort of humour I've seen is Cris Moriss' 'Jam'.
eg. The Casual Parents - I won't spoil it for you.
Anyone who hasn't seen it NEEDS to.

I love Timmy's Dad that cracks me up Timmy's wee voice lol
shareI must say the only time I ever thought they went too far was when a woman who had died of cancer's family taped over her last words to them with a film... that was really close to the bone...
As for storylines jumping the shark, I agree the Cottager ran out of steam. The same can be said for the Paedofinder General. It just recycles all the same old jokes.
Agree about the cottager, they should have left it after he went to night school. BTW, did anyone notice one of his fellow classmates looked a mighty lot like a certain famous pop star who vehemently denies batting for t'other side and will sue anyone who says he is?? Take THAT and party!!!!
