Roy und Moss, Systembetreuer des Industrieunternehmens Reynholm Industries, fristen ihren Arbeitsalltag im fensterlosen Keller ihrer Firma. Doch eines Tages ist es mit der trauten Zweisamkeit der Computer-Nerds vorbei. Ihr Boss Denholm Reynholm hat die attraktive Jen 'befördert' und ihr die Leitung der IT-Abteilung übertragen. Dumm nur, dass die Karrierefrau so gar keine Ahnung von Computern hat. (Verleiher-Text)

Es wären nicht die Briten, wenn sie nicht wieder einmal eine großartige Serie geschaffen hätten, diesmal eine witzige und wortreiche Sitcom mit vielen denkwürdigen Szenen und Figuren. Als ich die erste Staffel sah, war ich nicht sonderlich beeindruckt, aber ... dann kamen die zweite und dritte Staffel und ich wurde süchtig nach dieser Serie. Die besten Charaktere sind für mich die Computer-Analphabetin Jen und der ewige Verlierer Roy. Und die besten Szenen waren bisher... Roy, der Rollstuhlfahrer auf der Schwulenmesse, und dann, als Jen den neuen BH von Moss testete. Einfach toll ... gerade wenn ich die Anfangsmelodie höre, so ... cool!!!

This crazy group from the basement of a luxurious corporate headquarters has an exceptionally high rating, and it's no wonder because it perfectly appeals to the young, computer-enthusiast generation that forms the basis of film fans on FilmBooster. Though this professionally made British sitcom fits exactly into the style that utilizes traditional British humor, this time it didn't appeal to me that much. I either like lightly sarcastic, but sober pieces in the style of The Office, or on the other hand, a distinctive absurd exaggeration in the style of Monty Python. By the way, the inspiration from Monty Python and other classic TV series from the 60s and 70s is quite apparent in this sitcom, but while Monty Python used an anarchic, obviously provocative and risky, dadaistic style, this series follows well-worn commercial tracks and relies on certainty. The rhythm of gags and lines is high, but that's exactly what leads to some jokes falling flat and the level of humor fluctuating. Additionally, I was bothered by some overacting from the actors, not to mention that the quality of the series declined as it progressed. There are better cast and directed series out there. Overall impression: 65%.

Graham Linehan definitely has a talent for original and really funny things. The topic of the IT Crowd is almost genius - making a sitcom about “regular IT guys" that you too must be familiar with in your everyday life is simply a priceless idea. But although the result certainly has its qualities, they aren’t that huge in the end. The world of ones and zeros was left heavily underused. In the end, most of the humorous situations emerge from regular sitcom roots (despotic macho boss) and the “difficulty of communication between IT staff and the surrounding world" is forgotten. Each episode contains only a couple (literally) of good gags. It’s not bad, it’s funny, however the subject matter promises much more than what we end up with in the end. The high point is paradoxically episode 2X01 where the authors don’t even try to make any IT jokes.

I thoroughly enjoyed the TV series for three seasons, and while the fourth season didn't quite match up, I can't deny that I had an amazing time overall. The trio in the basement at Reynholm Industries really grew on me. My chuckles often escalated into full-blown laughter, a clear testament to the creators' excellent work. Beyond just entertainment, I gained some unexpected knowledge. Now, I know for a fact that you can't access the without a browser, and certain words are off-limits for a Google search. I also know what the internet looks like, and that it's stored in Big Ben. / Lesson learned: Don't be afraid of nerds, they're quite endearing.

The IT Crowd is all about giving this group a chance, and when you do, you will laugh until the end. The stubborn Moss, the brute Roy, and the unpredictably irresistible Jen are so charming with their light foolishness that you will gladly forgive them for a few weaker jokes. Moreover, the first season is only a small taste of what is to come in the others. In these, the creators uncompromisingly make fun of sexuality, disabilities, or older citizens, and through intentional rudeness, they do it truly irresistibly. Thanks to the continuous laughter in the second, third, and fourth seasons, the fifth star is well-deserved.
