Have you watched Man to Man with Dean Learner?

Found them 'trying' to be funny to much for my tastes. Garth Marengi's Darkplace, they kept in character and in the situation (show reality vs reality of tv production) lead to the humor/oddity. Maybe I just watched too many too quickly and the laugh track was off putting, everything seemed focused on it being humorous instead of just letting the characters/situations play out. Show plays out like a continuation of the Eddie Murphy SNL Velvet Jones character. Liked that aspect of the show, how this character controls all these people's lives.

Following this trail of actors/writers considering 'Nathan Barley'.
