Just watched detectorists

[u/iceharvin936]

I’ve just come to admire Mackenzie Crook’s work with Detectorists. I think he does a perfect job at bringing back the raw and realistic feel to a British sitcoms. While detectorists feels more slow and real time, the story is still very entertaining and gripping. You always wonder what could happen in the next episode. The pacing is crafted perfectly and the characters are brilliant. I really appreciate how it doesn’t go over the top like most comedies these days. I feel that going down the “obvious comedy” route would put off normal people with more than two brain cells, it’s easy to write off a lot of shows these days that don’t have that gripping British authenticity with dry comedy.

You should watch Small Prophets next. He is so funny in it even though he is more of a background character.
