"Outnumbered" - any fans?

[Answerprancer]

I don't watch much TV and I normally despise "family" sitcoms - with all that phoney precocious scripting forced on the kids and the canned laughter, but this has something special. I think it's because it's partially improvised and the kids have been allowed to be more natural and real.

Favourite quotes:

Karen (7) (after a despute with her brother Ben) "He called me lezza, which I really don't like, and a tosspiece!"

Ben (9) (after having his room tidied up) "What the hell have you done to my room?!! ...it's full of ...floor!"

I'm with you Tony. Thought it was funny to start with but now don't watch it as all I want to do is give the two younger children a slap!

I've tried watching it but kept getting a dreadful urge to slap the kids..........

[Mojo-Jo-Jo]

I want to slap them all.

Oh no, my cosy little thread has suddenly taken a nose-dive into the abyss of disapproval !
Not "ok" Leviathon ! Everyone's supposed to agree with me!
Ok folks, the party's been a perfect disaster and you'll all have to leave...out, OUT !

It tastes of....stuff.
