I am so glad to have found The Catherine. I have watched Ab Fab over and over again and I am a huge fan of theirs. She is the closest thing that I have found to their sense of humor. I am a Southern Girl - and I just adore her. She has many fans here in the great state of Texasuly ledgendary style, I saw one small session and I just want to see more of him, so funny he had my sides spliting

The League of Gentlemen, Little Britain and Catherine Tate are all very funny and spot on a lot of the time. You really can't compare them to each other. They all miss the mark occasionally, but for the most part they are television worth watching

Catherine Tate is British comedy at its best. She is superb and the characters are well grounded. Excellent comedy - a more modern version of Dick Emery, Benny Hill and Harry Enfield. Catherine Tate rocks

Steve Montgomery, July 2006


I am sure Catherine is a very nice woman.. but funny she aint'... her comedy seems to be a poor rip off of Little Britain and I hope the BBC recognise that soon and get rid of her.

Absurdly, painfully and unrelentingly unfunny. Perhaps the most unbelievable of sketches is the 'What am I like' couple. Upon seeing this sketch, you're almost guaranteed to cram your fist into your mouth in the vain hope you'll lose consciousness before you are subjected to another of the catchphrases. Standing alongside shows like Little Britain (which is perhaps not as funny as some make it out to be), the Catherine Tate Show falls short in every area it should reach. It isn't entertaining - unless you're completely mental - it isn't funny, and it's not even a good waste of a half hour. This time could be better spent banging your head on a table, and you'd probably be more entertained.

Catherine Tate is 200% talent. She is so refreshing and different. Given her immense ability to change from one very unique character to the next, I would love to see her in a TV drama role i think she would be fantastic. She makes me and my mum laugh out loud and we look forward to watching her every night. Give us more

There s no getting away from the fact that she s immensely talented, but is she funny? To me the material's okay but seen one show, seen em all. She reminds me of Tracey Ullman, when the comedy became secondary to the first objective, which was to show us at every moment of every show of every series, just how talented she was. I am an exiled Brit living in Chicago and recently saw Catherine Tate for the first time on BBC America. I was fed up with Am I Bovvered before the end of the sketch and the closet gay guy is the same every week. But the point was really made when I saw a sketch where the police were offering her a safe haven as an escape from the stigma of being .ginger. Not really funny but that s almost beside the point. What was the idea behind the Liverpudlian accent? To once again show us that she can do yet another accent brilliantly. The weak comedy got lost in it all. Why wouldn t it have worked as well in her own accent? This clever lady would be better employed as a character actress. Her show clashes with one here called The Chelsea Handler Show. Handler will never make mainstream American TV (the material is just to raunchy But she is funny and original and when doing a sketch, plays herself and lets the strength of the comic material carry the act. Look and learn Catherine, look and learn. Make the show funny and be yourself more. The look-at-me-aren t- I-talented act will soon grow tiresome.

You have got to be kidding me, this show is painfully unfunny. Every time I now here a kid say 'Bothered' it makes me want to to rip their throat out
