Spaced

A brilliant and funny (borderline genius) show about two twentysomethings who pose as a couple to rent a flat in London.

Chock full of pop culture references and great dialogue, this show is only fourteen episodes long which probably makes it one of the longest running shows in England television history. For some reason they don't stick around long.

Simon Pegg and Mike Frost got their start with this show. If you have seen the spectacular Shaun of the Dead or Hot Fuzz then you are aware of who they are. Anyway hilarious and sometimes touching show about friends and modern living.

Tim is an aspiring comic book artist, Daisy wants to do anything but work, Brian is an artist whose mediums are pain, despair, fear....you'll understand. Mike is Tim's best friend and super military guy, Twist is Daisy's best friend and involved with Brian, and all are under the watchful and drunk eye of Marsha the landlord.

If you watch it you can't help but like it!
