The IT Crowd
I like that this one was a Douglas heavy episode because I felt he was somewhat underused this season. It also allowed for some zanier humour that otherwise may not have worked without Douglas since he is the most random character on the show. I think the scene with Victoria sleeping behind a large pair of sunglasses was a reference to an episode in an earlier season where Douglas thought Jen was sleeping because she was wearing the same ones. For that reason I was able to see it coming, but at the same time I appreciated the callback. It might have been nice for Roy and/or Moss to have had a subplot in this episode because on a personal level I just like when there's more going on, but then it would've taken time away from Douglas and, again, he deserved this episode because he's only had a small amount to do this season. Also I have never heard the phrase "wet squib", but I did know that it was "pedestal" and not "peddle stool".
That's it for this season of The IT Crowd, and for "This Week in Television" until the new TV season begins in September. The Hero/Douchebag of the Week awards will probably return in the third week of September because there will be plenty of premieres that week. See you then!
