[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I absolutely love Noel. He was fantastic with Sandy, so I was so sad to see her go. Matt was better this season, but that’s not saying much. Hope they will replace him, but doubtful. [/quote]

I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked Noel and Sandy, esp. given how big the shoes they had to fill with Mel & Sue's departure.  But Sandy's down-to-earth Scandi demeanor was so helpful to balance out Noel's weirdness, whereas with Matt*, the two just tip over into actual creepiness (recalling the whole Peter season, yikes).

*I [i]really [/i]dislike Matt, to the point that even I have to acknowledge it has to be a little irrational.[/quote]

Agreed on Matt versus Sandi.

Many of the Matt/Noel sketches were just weird. The mock about to embrace in a passionate kiss was stupid and bizarre, because Noel isn't gay and what was the point? Their sketches were one big fail after another. [b]I don't doubt Matt is a very nice guy[/b] but they did nothing for the show and only came across as those weird second cousins who never bathe and with a gross sense of humor you always hope will never turn up at family gatherings.

You have zero idea what he's really like. I met him multiple times on the London comedy circuit. He isn't someone I'd call "nice".[/quote] Are you the same poster who claims that Sue is also not ‘nice’?[/quote]

Yes, pray tell who are you and what are you doing on an American blog?[/quote]

DCUM people come from all walks of life. Someone who is involved in stand up comedy can easily be going to London for comedy shows and events while living in DC or somewhere else in the US. Completely plausible. I know artists and academics who shuttle back and forth between the US and Europe all the time for work and shows and conferences and lectures. [/quote]
