The fourty-fourth TV show: #581 Spaced
Spaced feels like a bit of an odd show. I appreciate it for that reason, because it matches with me and my experiences in so many places. Daisy and Tim are 20-somethings who haven't quite grown up yet and are trying to find their way in life. They move in together, not knowing each other too well, and have to masquerade as a couple to keep the flat. They hang out with their friends there, in a way that feels pleasant. The characters are a bit larger than life, but it suits the way it's filmed, which is a bit bigger. There are a lot of references to other works (some of which I get, some of which I don't), plenty of dream sequences and a sense of throwing many things in. Despite that heightened, the characters feel very human and recognisable.
