paced is a British comedy sitcom, written by and starring Jessica Stevenson and Simon Pegg. There have been two series, with seven episodes each, and both Stevenson and Pegg have stated that there will not be third series. The show was originally aired on Channel Four in 1999-2000. It's curently being shown on the Freeview/Sky channel Dave. The sitcom is very unique in comedy and features a brilliant range of characters. There is Tim (Pegg), who is bitter about having been dumped by his girlfriend and kicked out of the house. Tim works in a comic book shop, is writing a comic, is often seen with his skateboard and is into Star Wars in a big way. He meets Daisy ...  Read the complete review

It seems like a lot of people are getting into Spaced after seeing Shaun of the Dead or Hot Fuzz. Here I'm at something of a disadvantage, as I've seen neither (oddly). I saw spaced first when it was on TV, and bought the collectors DVD when it came out, so if I make no attempt to comapre the humour, that's why. Spaced is something of a niche comedy about two people who fake a relationship so they can rent a flat ("professional couples only") though really this is just an excuse to throw the two main characters together. Spaced is really just about the lives of idle twenty somethings in the late nineties, and is littered with pop cultured references ...  Read the complete review

I became a fan of Simon Pegg, Nick Frost and director Edgar Wrights work after watching Shaun of the Dead and have been desperatly trying to catch up and watch their whole back catalouge. Spaced was really the first project the team worked on together and the sitcom that introduced Nick Frost into the world of acting. It follows Daisy and Tim, two people that meet in a cafe as they both search for a flat. They eventually find the perfect place to live, but it is only on offer to a proffesional couple. After knowing eachother for only a few weeks Daisy and Tim decide to pretend that thats what they are in order to secure the flat. Both series follow thier adventures with .  Read the complete review

Most possibly my favourite piece of viewing in the world. This series betters all my favourite films, tv shows and series. Simon Pegg, Edgar Wright and Nick Frost are a terrific trio on their own, but throw in Mark Heap, Jessica Stevenson (now Hynes) and Julia Styles and appearances from Bill Bailey, you have yourself the best UK - now best international - sitcom ever written. Edgar Wrights way of directing is astounding and unique, and Simon Pegg and Jessica Hynes teamed together to create unfallable, hilarious believable characters with terrific dialogue and pop culture references that is utterly hyponotising. The music compliments the ...  Read the complete review

People often find Spaced when looking through Simon Peggs back collection and decide to give it a go. Spaced may still have Peggs quirky sense of humour in there somewhere but it is more much more. Spaced is a groudbreaking cult series that burst through onto Channel 4 late night. It soon gained popularity for it's slightly wacky sense of humour and homages. Tim and Daisy two singles meet after leaving their old places. Both looking for somewhere to stay they meet in a cafe and are brought together when they discover an ad for the perfect flat. The only catch ... Professional couples only. Posing as a couple they move in and meet Marsha the ...  Read the complete review
