Reviews

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
Kidskycom It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.
Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast
Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
cunliffealex The best Scottish comedy since Rab C.... Every bit as good as The Royals.
mwtv The depressing thing is that this series, the stated premise of which could barely sustain a 2 hour stage play let alone multiple 30 minute episodes, is illustrative of most of home grown British TV sitcom - after about 10 mins of episode 1 it's not funny anymore . The already stale and tired gags are repeated using different words over and over and over again by the same inane two dimensional characters in every cliched, formulaic situation in each predictable episode. Binniederek is right, this doesn't say much for the panel that voted it Best Comedy at the 2017 RTS Scotland Awards.
ianlouisiana As a man born in Perth but having lived among the enemy most of my life I may not qualify in some eyes as having the wit or perception,critical faculties or experience to review "Two doors down",but,dammit,Ill have a wee go..... To my mind it's neither as bad nor as good as the previous writers have indicated. It is repetitious inasmuch as a running gag is repetitious by its very nature. That's ok by me as long as the gag is funny in the first place. The women are ballbreakers and the men rather meek - a classic role - reversal tactic beloved of writers,now getting to be a bit of a cliche I must admit. An please spare us from more gay sons and their partners presented as if it was a daring premise.It isn't.Get over it. Doon M. is meant to be appalling,and she's very good at it. My problem with "Two doors down" lies simply in that it is a weak copy of so many better sitcoms with cliched writing,overacting and grim desperation in the eyes of the performers that possibly stems from the realisation that they will be stuck with this stuff as long as Scottish tv bosses think it's funny. And that may be some time.
binniederek I wouldn't normally take time to review but find myself having to come to the defence of Two Doors Down and the brilliant writing of Simon Carlyle and Gregor Sharp. I can only assume that the reviewer filmcomedybuff is neither a. From Scotland or b. A TV comedy Buff as the review of 1 star is simply not merited. Love this series and the characters, it's becoming 'Abigail's Party (with Kilts)'. Its a slow burner and has crept up on me and many of my friends over the 3 series where we all now regularly pitch up the morning after an episode to have a laugh about what was just aired. The characters have built slowly but a special mention to the performances by Doon Mackichan as Cathy (Modern day Abigail) and Elaine C Smith as Christine. To be fair I can take or leave other characters Elaine has played but the role of Christine was made for her.Also 'utterly dismal' as a review doesn't say much for the panel that voted it Best Comedy at the 2017 Royal Television Society Scotland Awards.Brilliant stuff but perhaps for people who appreciate good 'Scottish' comedy.
