Review of No Activity

No Activity (2015–2018)
3/10
Flock of seagulls
13 November 2018
I ran, after watching the first 2 episodes.

With the exception of April (played by Harriet Dyer), I found the characters irritating rather than amusing. Rather than take the Brooklyn Nine-Nine route (incompetence within a relatively realistic milieu), they've chosen the route of supremely farcical incompetence and have failed to make this funny.

Look at what happened at the end of episode 1 (no spoilers here) and how this is effectively forgotten by the beginning of episode 2. How does that make any sort of sense, unless this is a farce? In which case, it needs to be a good farce. This is just a bad farce about a bad force. Watch Brooklyn Nine-Nine instead.
