Peep Show Netflix Series Review

Shawn Wambari, Year 3

The sad realisation hits, as you see the end credit scene roll of the Netflix series that you have been binging for the last week come to an end. The emotional attachment, roller coaster of feelings and heart thumping cliff-hangers is all over and you feel a space in your heart is now gone and you don’t know what to do. Well no need to fear, grab another drink and get ready for the next marathon. Released in the early 2000’s set in London is the unique first person show called peep show, interesting name right? It follows two immature, mid twenties men as they go through life with all of its ups and downs, mainly downs for them which is pleasantly amusing for the viewer. The first person view when the characters have conversations makes it seem that you are part of the ‘el dude brothers’ making it the ‘three amigos’, feeling the Mexican vibe? Depending on the viewer age this might either be unfortunately relatable or slightly concerning of the future outlook of being an adult. There’s heartbreak as the el-dude brothers try find their love partners whilst nearly reaching that peak goal they somehow always fall short. Whether you laugh, or even cry it’s a 9 season blockbuster worth every minute. And if you are an indie music fan, the soundtrack will be right up your alley, so tunes and laughter what else would you want?
