Comedy genius
This is right up my street and my favourite comedy. Before watching this I was a big Spaced fan, so I was familiar with what Pegg, Frost and Edgar Writes capabilities. Saying that though, this film is a big funny step up from those early days. Just brilliant from start to finish and one of the few films that I can watch again and again and again.

I watched this entire season on Halloween. I've delayed my review because I can't really figure out if I just thought it was a seven or eight.
I'm a huge fan of Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, both together and apart.
First, main groaner was that Simon Pegg wasn't in it enough.
I liked the overall storyline, but, the whole time I was hoping it didn't turn out that the wife's disappearance ended up like Butcher's situation in the Boys.
The two little twists were ok, but telegraphed. The vfxs were cool, in terms of how the ghosts appeared.
There were not many laugh-out-loud moments, which I wasn't expecting. I really hope there's a season 2!

Not quite what I thought
I'm not sure this was exactly what I thought it was going to be. I expected a lot more humour when seeing the cast but I felt it was quite serious with a deep underlying story. The stories were quite good, I particularly liked he Portland Hotel episode. I felt towards the end it got quite silly and the solution seemed very clipped.
