And there was a trick to get it even earlier.
I always liked the idea of a Super Hans spin off. I eventually got bored of Mark's rinse and repeat awkward act and Jeremy's village idiot shenanigans (suddenly turning him gay tells me the writers ran out of ideas).I really liked the episode actually, thought it had plenty of comedic moments and finished off the series well. Didn't think it was up to much in the opening 5 mins or so, but enjoyed the ludicrous hostage situation, Super Hans' moping and Norwich comment, and the ending itself with Jeremy mildly optimistic and Mark downbeat as always worked perfectly.
Anyone think that if they were to go back, they'd probably make Super Hans a main character, as in one of the main trio? In the early seasons he probably featured in around half the episodes, but he was in nearly every episode in the latter couple of seasons and never felt too overused. Probably wouldn't suit the internal dialogue, but since he was more friendly with Mark in later seasons they almost felt like more of a trio anyway.
Yeah, he was one of the main supporting characters early on in that he was Jeremy's closest friend, while Sophie seemed to take up more of Mark's storylines. Hans became better mates with Mark in later seasons anyway, so was in pretty much every episode and almost felt like an extra main character as opposed to a supporting one.I liked it. The ending was perfect Peep Show. I'm glad they didn't have happy endings. SuperHans with the Norwich line was brilliant. Deffo agree with the above that they were a trio.
Think he was in it from Season 2 onwards when they started adding other characters.Was Super Hans usually in the opening credits?
Jeremy always been gay/bi/whatever, there's a scene where he says he's slept with more men than Sophie has and then there's him being pegged. Its not that he's gay, its that he has sex with whoever and whenever.Low key ending to this show. And the Jeremy turning gay storyline ruined it for me, but it ticked the PC box. .Be sorry to see it go but maybe it was for the best.

Wait till you hit seasons 4&5.Just started watching this, it’s really funny.
It’s such a weird show - in a good way, I ended up laughing my head off when he hid himself in a stationary closet thingie. And yeah, I’ve plenty of episodes to burn through yet.Wait till you hit seasons 4&5.
Yeah, season 4 is pure gold, all the episodes are really high level.Season 4 (leading up to the wedding) is the best season of any comedy imo. Just pure genius.
I felt it lost some of its charm in the latter seasons but seasons 1-5 are so good.
The wedding would have been the perfect way to end the show imo. There's some great episodes afterwards but it did drag on a bit.Season 4 (leading up to the wedding) is the best season of any comedy imo. Just pure genius.

Agreed. The wedding episode is amongst the most cringeworthy TV I've ever seen. Brilliant stuff.The wedding would have been the perfect way to end the show imo. There's some great episodes afterwards but it did drag on a bit.
Rewatching myself now. Brilliant isn’t it.Just started watching this, it’s really funny.
Yeah it’s really good. I’ve really slept on it for a long time but I’m glad I started it now.Rewatching myself now. Brilliant isn’t it.
While he becomes a bit of a caricature in later seasons, Johnson is continuously hilarious. His eulogy at Gerard's funeral being classic Johnson.I genuinely laugh when Johnson appears before he even says anything

One of the best comedy moments of all time.Agreed. The wedding episode is amongst the most cringeworthy TV I've ever seen. Brilliant stuff.
My favourite ever scene: Mark frantically mopping up Jez' piss with a bit of tissue as it's leaking through the floorboards - can't recall how many times I've rewatched thisOne of the best comedy moments of all time.
It's weird because the last episode of the show basically ends on the same note as the wedding(Mark and Jez realising they are totally dependent on each other).
