Tried this out because I wanted to see what else Richard Ayoade had done besides the wondrous IT Crowd. It was interesting to see Matthew Holness's other characterisations besides pompous ass Garth Marenghi, which was the only one I already knew.
Man to Man was enjoyable enough, if a little patchy. Some episodes worked better than others and watching them back to back didn't really help, as it emphasised the repetiveness of the format. However, that's probably true for most comedy shows and it shouldn't be a deterrent. Give this one a go, there are some very funny moments.- Was this review helpful to you?

(7)'Man To Man With Dean Learner'
By joog (4 reviews) from STOKE ON TRENT , 15 Jan 2010if you enjoyed darkplace by garth merengue (may be spelt wrong) you will prob enjoy this also. Only rented out of curiosity as friend introduced me to darkplace.
its the little nuonces that i also found amusing, e.g charector dean learners body language. would have liked to have seen charactors done by other actors from darkplace but the guy who does garth marengue in my opinion is good and amuses.- Was this review helpful to you?

As much a criticism of LoveFilm...
By a customer from London , 10 Jan 2010that this gets a bad rating. No where on the details page does it tell you that this is NOT a film! Even when I realised it was a TV series, I still hoped it would be worth watching. Sadly, it's just 6 episodes of toilet humour and crass jokes for teenagers. If I want to hire a TV series that I've never heard of, that was probably originally aired at midnight, and, I imagine, wasn't recommissioned past the first series, I'll go to LOVEUnfunnyTVSeries.com. I guess it's too much effort for LOVEFiLM to include a category on their listings so I'm going to have to be more careful in future...- Was this review helpful to you?

Disappointing
By a customer from London , 24 Apr 2009I thought the best bits of garth marenghi's darkplace was the talking heads between the scenes (which were a bit too clever-clever and pop-culture referencing for my liking). I then had high hopes for man to man. The inclusion of a studio audience is a big mistake - it plays for as many laughs as possible without letting the characters breathe. But there are not nearly enough laughs. Some characters work better than others, the actor Randolph Caer is one of the best. But, overall, it comes across as a substand Knowing Me, Knowing You.- Was this review helpful to you?
