yes! I’ve seen it and love it, there are a few weak episodes but some are absolute class, better than anything I’ve seen in a long time! 😜

Bo’ Selecta is really hit and miss… Bedtime With The Bear makes me laugh more often than not, and when he’s ‘himself’ with the celebrities, but the Mel B / Micheal Jackson / Craig David thing leaves me cold…

I remember the episode but can’t remember the exact joke either 🙂
my fav episode is ‘Hell Hath Fury’. Theres a scene where Sanchez is cornered and locked in battle with a spatular, tin opener and whisk its sooo funny. Theres another scene with a guy being chased by a stapler :lol:
I love everything about it, the captain kirk- star trek style acting, the old ch4 logo animation, the music, the sexism. Scariest part is I actually think I want to be Lucien Sanchez when I’m older… he so smooth. 😊
I think it should stop at one series though, I always respect a sit-com more if it bows out before it gets too tired. Red Dwarf being an example of a sit-com which should have stopped at least two series ago, which is a shame because it was easily my most fav show as a kid :love:
I think Bo Selecta’s suffering from the same at the moment, its still good in parts but the humor isn’t strong enough to carry it for a third series IMO. Craig David scenes are weak.
[SIZE=1]Cue soft focus lens and cheesy music
Patient: Have you ever done that before?
Sanchez: What? Making love?
Patient: No… I mean with a patient
Sanchez: Once or twice, but they were dieing, it was their last wish… but with you it was real, I did it because you are different, plus… I think I’ve got a thing for green women[/SIZE]

That was the first one from what i remember.
Scotch Mist…that was a good episode, they were all top tho.
I like the way how cheesy & cheap lookin theyve made it.
I think Mel B’s the best from bo selecter…and I hate that bear thing.
