Seriously are people just making these titles up?

Loved Freebase Frenzy back on ITV2 in 2006. Every character representing a different narcotic surely went over the heads of most viewers, though Charlie and Billy were terrific, energetic main characters. And Emma DMA an adorable love interest. Surprised it aired at teatime, tbqh. Especially with the wacky neighbour, Our Sid

One of our very own top posters ( as in person who posts here, not a big picture of that lady playing tennis and showing her botty ) co-wrote that show, I do believe.
I did, plus contributed to at least two other shows listed in the thread.  I'm not entirely sure what that says about my 'career.'

Bad Boys (Karl Howman/Freddie Boardley, not Will Smith obv.)

The Fitz. BBC2 Sitcom about a big ol' Irish family. It got panned in pretty much all the same ways Mrs Brown's Boys would years later but for some reason wasn't a roaring success and lasted one series of six episodes in the summer of 2000.

Roman's Empire

I really loved this when it was on, but I was about fourteen and hadn't really watched much comedy. I remember a lot of people saying it was a shit imitation of Arrested Development, but I'd not watched that back then so had no frame of reference. It's always lurked in the back of my mind as something I found properly, properly funny, so I'm afraid of giving it another look.

My main memory is Chris O'Dowd being a proper punching bag for his wife and nightmare baby, and there being a death in the family to which someone responded by pointing at O'Dowd and screaming 'I WISH IT WAS HIM WHO DIED!' which I found really funny. Also I really liked the theme tune, but I cannot for the life of me even remember now how it sounded.

conceit was that the house was on the border; cue gag of going between deedly-deedly-drunk-potato and NO SURRENDER voices. to a response of fuck all.
