The Catherine Tate Show – The Complete First
Season/Series One

C+ Sound: C Extras: D Episodes: C-
I really
like British comedy and we guess Catherine Tate is trying to be the next
Jennifer Sanders or Tracy Ullman, but after watching the six episodes of The Catherine Tate Show – Series One
(2004) now on DVD, I was not laughing and found sketch after sketch rather
shrill and pointless. There is no doubt
she has talent just by playing the different roles she does, but so unfunny is
this that it is not even typical British comedy.
Hope she
is funnier next time.
The
anamorphically enhanced 1.78 X 1 image is soft and has shimmering detail, but
color can be consistent. The Dooby
Digital 2.0 is badly recorded, plays back at low levels (so be careful when
turning this up) and is barley stereo.
There are no extras.
