Toast of London Audience Reviews 6v5f69

Cortechba Overrated

ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

HottWwjdIam There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.

Kodie Bird True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

chearn-09739 Oh man, there are times when this show has some cringe worthy moments and some pretty un-PC and outdated jokes. But, frick, it's funny. I love Matt Berry. He's brilliant. Absolutely addictive show. Love it!

mcollins-78667 British humour very evocative of the 1960's and 70's.Foolishness and throwaway lines that you sometimes don't even realize until later."Your brother ... is that the soldier?" "Yes. He came back from the Falklands with an amputated hand." "Really? That's rather odd. I would have thought he'd have left it there."Silly humour, makes you chuckle and leaves you diverted.And love Stephen Toast. All the casting is well thought out.Very worth a watch. Wish there was more of it.

pontram I found this show by accident two years ago, and I fell immediately in love with it. Of course it is sometimes crazy, unpredictable, and over the top, of course it is well scripted and well played. Together with "Drifters" it's my favorite comedy show.But here is why I really was caught: My mother (rest in peace, mum) was an actress, and so I got some insight as a boy growing up, from six to fourteen approximately, into the local actor's "family".So, many characters, behaviors, and events in this show are not uncommon for me. I recognize all this vanity, envy, life-long hate, sexual promiscuity, hubris, fear.....whatever you want, that makes an actor's or actress's life special and interesting, but also stressful because of the exaltation of most aspects of the normal life - even poverty or the struggle for income. For example, the life of an actor is torn apart from the beginning between the need to become famous and the need to have privacy...sailing these waters is always a difficult thing, because if you get much of one, you loose the other.I me constantly being astonished about those strange people I met then, and I think that was the reason why I took another path - those people can also be very strenuous.Toast let us have a view at the struggles of an actor who has his little moments of fame, but never gets really successful. He fails at most things in his life, but nevertheless survives ridiculously proud.And believe me, although I grew up with Austrian actors, where everything is much smaller, it's the same here and there, and as strange that may sound, Toast is not far from reality as it is to be lived as a member of the biz.If you don't have a background like me, you can of course enjoy this little show, which constantly (and successfully) tries to surprise you, mostly with black humor, or disarming humor, always well-meant, never (or rarely, to be precise) disgusting.It's a little gem, and the only thing I have to criticize is, that it's only six episodes a season.

Arch Stanton I stumbled across this title after searching Matt Berry on IMDb. I'm pleased I gave it a chance. This show is hilarious. Bizarre, surreal, outright strange and goofy. But it delivers. Matt Berry as Toast is excellent with his deep voice and nails this type of over-the-top persona. He portrays Toast with a good mix of delusion, ambition, obliviousness, and competitiveness. The ing cast is excellent and funny as hell also. Clem Fandango and Ray Purchase are freakin' hysterical and just their character names makes me laugh out loud. Ray-f#cking-Purchase!!! I love that they keep this nemesis going throughout. And when I watched for the first time, the musical that breaks out really threw me for a loop. I wasn't expecting that,not then nor in every episode. If you have the itch for some comedy different than the run of the mill, safe trip that's the norm, sit down and have a couple of slices of Toast! Well worth it.
