    Centering one of Lilley's most annoying characters in a series to ramble on incessantly robs the character of its past effectiveness and makes her--and the series--almost unbearable to watch.

    It's a painfully obvious shtick, so camp and arch it's impossible to enjoy the joke.

    You can consider this too much of a not-good-enough thing.

    Their all-that activities become redundant and tiresome at WARP speed, raising the overall question of whether watching Ja’mie: Private School Girl on a continuous loop would be worse than eternal burning in hell.

This self-indulgent, puerile nonsense is unbearable to watch as the view is subjected to the off-putting experience of watching a man in drag fondle school girls and flog a dead horse.

There's a difference mockery and mimicry, and unfortunately this show doesn't get that. It really is just hard to watch.… Full Review »
