No, it’s not sci-fi, and no, it’s not fantasy. And, no, I don’t give a damn. It has been YEARS since a television show has made me laugh so much and so hard. Make sure your remote has fresh batteries; Cunk On Earth had me laughing so long I had to repeatedly rewind, only to laugh so uncontrollably at what I had missed that I had to rewind yet again. The jokes are so well crafted and so densely packed that it almost seems impossible that these are only twenty-eight minute episodes. This might just be the perfect mockumentary. I have not encountered entertainment so cleverly designed and so flawlessly presented since the 1989 release of unrelated Belgian techno anthem, “Pump Up The Jam.”
