This video essay reviews and analyzes Channel 4's Peep Show, starring David Mitchell and Robert Webb, and written by Jesse Armstrong and Sam Bain. If you have not watched this classic British sitcom then I thoroughly recommend you do. This video analyzes the why the visual style complements the inner monologue approach to comedy, and how the airtight character writing leads to the funniest conclusions. Peep Show is about two odd couple style characters living together in London between the ages of 25 and 40.

Peep Show is about two adults who have not achieved their dreams and are completely unfulfilled but only get by on the superiority complex they have built over each other. Mark hates his meaningless job that does not suit his character and stunted social life, but knows that he is at least more "adult" than his foolish flatmate. Jez has achieved absolutely nothing in his life but always thinks it's a small blessing that he hasn't sold out like Mark.

I think Jez has got further in life than Mark.. Mark works and makes himself miserable, to live in a 2 bed, ex council flat. He worries about money and what people think of him. None of the women in Mark's life are the type many would go for and even they don't respect him. Jez does nothing but enjoy himself and to Marks annoyance, he has a better life in the same flat, gets plenty of sex and is able to manipulate Mark into getting himself involved in the crap he does because Mark wants some fun.

it's funny because so often an odd couple type show ends an episode with this big reconciliation scene "oh man now i can see things from your perspective and i understand and respect you as a person" while in PS they are like "i hate you more now. i have hated you before and yet somehow my hatered for you has grown. unfortunately, without you i will disintegrate. do you want toast?"

I can see it. Jez would work as one of those burnouts who languishes indoors, and particularily one of those guys who can't handle winters. Not as hippy and libertine like Jez, more blatantly status obsessed. Mark as a STEM trade/degree graduate who claims he wants to move forwards in life, but is an uncommunicative wreck and a neurotic nightmare boyfriend. He should be better disguised as a normo than British Mark, but anyone that interacts with him should catch on pretty quick. They'd live in one of those housing market crash poorly built suburban houses with an unfinished basement Jez lives in. Instead of claustrophobia it'll be agoraphobic with creeping hoarder tendencies that Canadian Mark would have.

I identified a lot with Mark and Jeremy. I was also a victim of my own decisions in life. And at the end of the episode not everything was solved. Just small changes at times. But it left me with a sense of continuity. It wasn’t over yet. Each episode was an opportunity, another chance to fix themselves. Even if the journey was miserable it was always new, interesting and also a dark kind of fun. It helped me think about my life in those terms as well.

It is, without doubt, the best thing we have produced and should be in everyone's top ten. Jez and the giant "turkey leg" and his look of disgust is amazing. "They've eaten Mummy!" As a show it's "Tikkety Boo."

I'm a kooky American who loves British comedy and I watched the show (through piracy) since 2005 or so. Now I constantly watch it in background on PlutoTV and never get sick of it, even though its only like 50 something episodes. "It's just a hairy turkey!" lives deep in my subconscious. This and Chris Morris's various 90s/early 00s shows are up there with the Golden Age of The Simpsons and the original Fox run of Arrested Development as the greatest sitcoms ever. When I found out Jesse Armstrong had an HBO show in development, I made sure to catch Succession from the very beginning.

Ugh, as an American I can say, Why can't we just leave perfection alone. Like most recently, Ghosts. I can't bring myself to watch the American version, but I'll make an educated guess it sucks like so many other American adaptations.

POV can do everything other traditional camera angles can do as long as there is more than one person in the field of view of whoever’s perspective the scene is being observed through. It’s just cameras on helmets.

One of the overlooked things about Peep Show was how it could accurately depict types of people. Like criminal burglaring their flat, and he starts playing the victim and whimpering, that is literally every street criminal ever.

I loved Peep Show, only of the only shows where I never felt like it declined in quality as it went along. I especially love the ending, it's exactly how I imagined it would finish.

The way sitcoms are written in the UK is totally different to the US which is partly why remakes are rarely successful. In the UK sitcom writing is a cottage industry. It's one or two people writing it and maybe only write 6 episodes a year, in the US sitoms are written by teams, are always adapting to audience perception and 100s of episodes can be made a year.

I think Peep Show only works in a British setting. You see with American style remakes of British shows that there is an inherent gritty and spiteful tone in UK TV which just does not translate. The American Office for example is a much brighter, funner, optimistic place. Spoilers below I think Jeremy's killing, cooking and eating of the dog and the lies that follow would cause a complaint rampage in the USA whereas in the UK, it reduced my girlfriend and I to tears and laughing fits.
