The Review

Peep Show is the cringe comedy masterpiece. David Mitchell and Robert Webb star as Mark and Jeremy, two flatmates whose inner monologues — delivered directly to the audience through point-of-view camera work — expose the gap between what people think and what they say. Nine seasons of British comedy at its most painful and hilarious.

Fun Fact

The show's first-person camera technique was so disorienting for guest actors that many required multiple takes to perform naturally while looking directly into the lens.
