Too Funny Tuesdays #10: The IT Crowd
filed in humor, tv on Jul.08, 2008
If you’ve ever spent any time dealing with nerds, working at a major corporation, or if you’re a fan of Britcoms at all, you’ll probably find The IT Crowd hilarious. Unfortunately, the show is difficult to find in the U.S. So, as part of my odd conception of civic duty, I’m fixin’ to hook y’all up with some of it up in hya (I’m not sure where that last phrase came from. It’s not even slightly British.).
I’d like to jump right to the funniest scene from any of the episodes I’ve seen, but I’ll start with one from episode #1. To set it up, I’ll give a slight recap. Jen is the new IT manager. She works under the slight disadvantage of having no knowledge whatsoever of computers, and she’s saddled with two “Standard Nerds” (Roy and Moss) who see right through her. They decide they don’t need a manager, and the following scene is them getting ready to report her to their scatterbrained boss, Denholm Reynholm.
Next week, it’s Denholm’s approach to dealing with STRESS!!!!
