Garth Marenghi's Darkplace

It's one of my favorite british comedies and I almost had a friggin heart attack when I found out it is now on Adult Swim.

For those not in the know, the show is a hell of a sendup concerning 80s TV Production and the horror genre at that point in time. What is even more wacky was their concept of making a fake universe around the creation of a TV show. (This also made for one of the best DVD commentaries I have ever heard.)

So has anybody else seen this, or am I the only person who has listened to 'One Track Lover'?

I actually just randomly happened to catch the first episode last week.

The show is jacked. I mean, it's entertaining, but it's just sooooo...

...out there. I was loling it up, though, so it's decent, at least for the novelty of it.

If you think the first episode's f*cked up, you really do need to see One Track Lover!
