@Zeke: *I*'m nuts?!

A 2-dimensional, ridiculous, unreal camp-fest with stupid characters who are also seemingly utter nymphomaniacs, pathetic dialogue, outrageously stupid plots and a total lack of thinking in general like that is *not* good TV.

Evidence: The final two-parter kiss: That would not have been reacted to in such a manner as portrayed even *remotely* in the '40's. In fact, that's less historically accurate than Clarke's fictional film Napoleon in 2061.

I've written better while dead drunk.

It doesn't take much for me to find a redeeming feature in a programme, and I searched, but after twenty minutes of a single episode, the urge to gouge my own eyes out was overpowering, the dialogue vomit-worthy, the plot horrendously stupid, the characters less realistic and more two-dimensional than the Mr. Men.

As I said, it made me break my one cardinal rule of TV-watching - switch off.

And as I said, I didn't even do that to Love and Monsters.

The only other thing I've done it to was The Horns of Nimon, and then only out of sheer boredom with the story - with this, it was too awful to watch.
