Suburban Shootout (2006–2007)
9/10
Little Britain meets The Sopranos
25 June 2006
Warning: Spoilers
Channel Five never seems to have anything that I want to watch. Well, that was the case until I discovered "Suburban Shootout"!

Fans of comedies like "Little Britain" and "Spaced" will find plenty of surreal pleasures in this tale of bored suburban housewives turned vigilantes and gangsters. Every episode these tweed-clad Amazons engage in drug dealing, extortion, wanton destruction and pointless violence.

The talented cast pitch into the bizarre story lines with gusto and the series is brimful with enthusiasm. There aren't many comedies that I find laugh-out-loud funny these days, but "Suburban Shootout" did have me chortling on the sofa as I watched. I really hope that Paramount and Channel Five make another series.
