Review of Coupling

Coupling (2000–2004)
Poorly written copy of an American show
6 January 2003
I'm sitting here right now writing this review wondering to myself "Why the hell does anyone find this sitcom so funny?". I can't see where the hilarity is in this show. You'd have to have a weird sense of humour to laugh at this. Please someone tell me where the laughs are here. It seems to struggle to get a laugh all the way through. Surely the BBC can produce something better than this. Where did the days of Blackadder, The young ones and only fools and horses go? I've always found that about 1975 to 1995 were the best years of comedy here in the UK. These modern comedies are just so dull and unfunny, it makes you wanna throw the TV out of the window.

Can you believe that the Americans are doing a copy of coupling. Let me get this straight, they are gonna copy a sitcom from Britain thats a British copy of one of there own American sitcoms. Coupling is Friends but British and the Americans want to copy it??? Well i'm glad to see they really thought about it logically. Haven't they had enough of Friends on TV to make another friends replica with a different name and cast. How stupid can you get. Basically as soon as friends has finished, "Friends 2" (U.S coupling) will hit there screens for another probable 10 year reign.

I'll just leave by saying that this sitcom is a waste of a TV license and that i'll just stick to watching my Blackadder video's and DVD's along with the other great sitcoms we once made.
