LOOK AROUND YOU UPDATE: A truism in comedy/tv serials is you make the second episode your best. The first drags them in, the second cements the audience. And episode 2 of Look Around You was much better than the first, mainly due to the extraneous details. The electric toothbrush section might have been an obvious gag but the long list of “new dental hygiene products” was very funny.
And it certainly got the idea of repetition making a mediocre joke hilarious. Medibot. (Which contrasted nicely with occasional flips over to er on Channel 4 where Medibot would have been welcome.)
