The IT Crowd British Sitcom

The IT Crowd British Sitcom

I was just discussing some TV shows with someone online and mentioned about one of my favorites from the UK, so I thought I'd share it here for some of those who may not know about the show. I first watched this show on Thailand 'Telly' where it was aired a season behind, so I'm still catching up.

There's a great British sitcom called "IT Crowd" which I enjoy. It first aired in 2006 and is about a pair of IT guys, (Roy and Moss), that work in the basement of a large corporation, Denholm Industries. There are a few other characters such as Jen, the woman who knows nothing about IT and is hired as their supervisor, and they also introduced Richmond, the mysterious goth IT guy who works somewhere in the bowels of the section behind the red door and pops up from time to time just to disappear again.

In the first season the CEO of the company Mr. Denholm was a very Monty-Pythonesque character who I liked very much, but was replaced by 'his estranged son' in the second season (I don't want to give away how just in case you decide to watch the series).

Here are some clips and a reference clip for the parody of the Guy Goma incident (a man interviewing as an accountant / data entry position for the BBC ended up, much to his surprise, on the air and being interviewed live on BBC News 24 about the Apple court case involving internet music downloads.) Watch IT Crowd on these clips, you can find more IT Crowd episodes on YouTube.
