Last time, we were discussing the logic and challenge of producing a sitcom that has more sit than com. In this, the final episode of Psychoville’s second series, that trend continues.
When is a sitcom not a sitcom? When the Venn diagram of situation to comedy is balanced heavily in favour of the non-funny bits? This certainly seems to be the case with Psychoville as it nears the end of its second series.
Nobody’s safe. Anyone can die. There is no ‘main’ cast. And nobody is who they first appear to be.
The weird and wonderful world of Psychoville returns to BBC Two in May for a brand new series to fright and delight in equal measure, taking mystery and intrigue to new heights.
Three episodes into Series 2 and Psyschoville shows absolutely no sign of slowing down, with a healthy lack of respect for its own cast of characters, meaning that anybody runs the risk of being bumped off to further the story along.
Now that it’s been firmly established that more people than you might have expected survived the events at the end of Series 1, things are settling into the routine (well, as routine as it ever gets around here) of ensuring that this time round, no-one is safe from a grisly dispatch.
BBC Two’s Psychoville returns for a second series and, judging by the first episode, it’s as smart and confident as ever.
