Surreal. Episodes have definite plots but there's a leaning toward non-sequitur and a lot of characters have humorously baffling personalities/motivations. It's very pleasant. Maybe sort of like Linehan on steroids.
Surreal is appealing, pleasant takes a step backwards.
What is the value of some thing that's appealing if it doesn't please your sensibilities?
Pleasant connotes nicely bland. "We had a pleasant time out." It wasn't awful, more enjoyable than not, but not especially stimulating or memorable.
Well disregard that then, it's not what I meant.

Coming up this Friday the 16th, the latest installment of "The Grand Tour" and I cannot wait. I love those 3 morons and I truly love their dicking around show. Really looking forward to it.
From what I see there's still a little hope

I'm very, very late to the game, but I've started watching What We Do in the Shadows. Enjoying it so far; Matt Berry does such a great pompous bozo and I love the idea of an office drone energy vampire.
This will contain some mild spoilers, but it's fantastic: https://www.avclub.com/whats-matt-berry ... 1849489030
I'm not going to spoil myself there, but it's clear that he just revels in his character.
He's an absolute gem. I know it's cliche, but I could listen to him read the phone book.
If you've never watched Garth Marenghi's Darkplace, he—and everyone else—is fantastic in that. Even if he had only this line:
Amazing.
Got a Rake? Sure!

The former Top Gear and current The Grand Tour said on Twitter on Friday that the social media platform was a "handy and constant reminder that socialists are disgusting people".

The comment came under heavy criticism online, including from actor Sean Biggerstaff who played Oliver Wood in the Harry Potter series.

Commenting on Clarkson's post, Biggerstaff wrote: "Shut the f**k up you rancid old thug".
