I've reviewed both of the The Inbetweeners movies quite a few times by now however i've never taken a look at the actual show. Well that ends right as i've finally say down and watched an episode of the show just to see if it still holds up all of these many years later and so then join me as I review the first episode of The Inbetweeners TV show with the episode in question being called simply just "First Day" enjoy.
The plot of this episode is Will McKenzie enters his first day at a public sith form school where he struggles to make new friends. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad since it was a rather simple plot and really that's all you want from a sitcom plotline in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
Starring in this episode is Simon Bird as Will McKenzie , James Buckley as Jay Cartwright and Blake Harrison as Neil Sutherland. Also starring in this episode is Joe Thomas as Simon Cooper , Henry Lloyd-Hughes as Mark Donovan , Anabel Barnston as Susie , John Seaward as John Webster , Greg Davies as Phil Gilbert , Richie Hart as David Glover , Emily Head as Carli D'Amato , Belinda Stewart-Wilson as Polly McKenzie , Alex Macqueen as Kevin Sutherland , Robin Weaver as Pamela Cooper and Ollie Holme as Tom.
Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty really good with all four main boys not only turning good performances but they also have some really freaking great chemistry together as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
If your like me and you grew up around the time when this show was being released then you either a fan of this show or a fan of Skins. Very few of us were fans of both and I was a fan of both shows however I can very easily admit that this show is a more realistic approach to how teenagers are and act where as Skins takes a more fantastical approach to how teenagers act and are however both shows are very enjoyable shows and both shows deserve all of the love that they get in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
All of the kids in this show and in this episode are presented as relatable characters since everything that the characters go through are all things that teenagers themselves go through. Heck even the main four boys represent people that are present in alot of people's friend groups and so everybody knows somebody who is like these characters and that makes them and their stories seem all the more relatable because everybody can relate to at the very least one of this episodes characters in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
I have to admit that this episode and this show wouldn't be made today since this show is so raunchy and this episode pulls no punches. Which are things that wouldn't fly today which is a shame because that's what makes this episode feel relatable since how the kids talk in this episode are how teenagers talk in real life and that makes this episode seem all the more funny because it now allows us to laugh at ourselfs in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
I will admit that there some things about this episode that I personally didn't like like for example the story which is rather thin at best. The other thing that I didn't like about this episode is the fact that absolutely none of the four boys are given anything likable about them which I get it that might be the point but at the same time when your creating a TV show even if your characters are being realistically you still need to give them something that's likable about their personality in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
Now then while I cannot for the absolutely life of me remember whatever this episodes running time even was I do know that for a fact that this episode has / had an exact grand total running time of roughly twenty two minuets. Which is pretty much the bogstanderd running time for any sitcom to last and to this episodes credit it really does last the perfect amount of time since it really doesn't have enough their in terms of plot to last anything longer then twenty two minuets in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
So now then since this is a comedy that means that I have to actually talk about the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all really good. With alot of this episodes jokes landing and getting a huge laugh out of me and while there are some unfunny jokes in this episode those are very few and far between with this episode containing alot more funny jokes then unfunny jokes in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
Overall this episode still holds up really well which was something that I wasn't expecting to be the case and while there are a few issues with this episode this is still a very good and a very funny episode of this very funny TV show in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very episode and well then that means that this very episode erns itself a grand old score of exactly an 8.5 out of 10 from me.
Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from the official Skins fandom wiki page , the official The Inbetweeners fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website that I personally preferred to use to get the images that I personally used in this very review being Google Images since all of the images that are currently up and and featured / presented to us on freaking Google Images are all fairly freaking high in freaking quality and as well as being very fairly freaking high in definition.
