[QUOTE="Oh!Carol Christmasson, post: 409437, member: 8"] Great stereotyping but also nightmarishly uncomfortable as it feels like being trapped with all these difficult and loud and stinky people. They tricked me with the information about the dead ex-boyfriend. It looks like a tasteful and wholesome remake of the famous Twilight Zone episode. Stupid and nasty and screamingly funny. The set-up kinda feels like an obvious choice and the jokes aren't terribly surprising, but the characters are very vibrant and somewhat relatable and that makes it a very watchable episode. A super-funny thing happens on the security cam (or whatever it was) but it's easy to overlook it because nothing interesting happens on that camera for most of the episode's running time. I guess a parody on dysfunctional family drama [I]needs[/I] to be all over the place, but short stories like these need some kind of focus to make it "pop". Ironically, the episode felt much longer than it was. Like [I]Last Gasp[/I] from series one this is also a very bitchy and cynical episode and I find it a little exhausting in some parts. But the main problem I have with this story is that it's totally unbelievable. As far as I know, the Prank TV shows had died out after the 1980s therefore it seems like a waste of time and money to produce Scaredy Cam in the 2010s. The three P's (pee, poo and porn) are well-presented in most episodes. Roll on series 3. [/QUOTE]
