Didn't think it was that bad.
I think he was a bit restrained though. The network must obviously have some guidelines of what he can and can't say.

Normally a big fan of British humour.

I guess every rule has an exception.

Watched a couple of minutes and thought it was rubbish.
Might've just been the topic.

Saw him on Letterman recently though and he was fairly amusing.

It simply - NO GOOD.

Think that we watched two segments and the best entertainment was the young kid driving the car :roll:

Last night's episode was great!
I haven't laughed like that since I was a little girl.

Is this Brand character meant to be funny or entertaining? He is about as interesting as Julian Clary.

It's more American shock humour than good British humour. Half an hour of him yelling this that we can already see for ourselves in the clips.

I'm sure Miles the dog was praying to be euthanised as well. :shock:

Thought I'd stay up and watch. Pure crap. I actually watched the whole show just to see if it got any better.
Nope. Just 30 minutes of my life wasted.....

Somebody told me ...."that Julian Clary has a huge opening in his classy act".
But I may have misheard them.

Can't stand Brand and I've no idea who thinks he's meant to be sexy...that childish, effeminate, pseudo posh act he puts on couldn't be less attractive. I reckon when he smiles he looks like a chimp.

If the only time you have to put up with him is Ponderland then you're quite lucky really...we have him guesting on other shows too and spoilling what are usually very good comedy quizzes...what a dh :roll:
