Nathan Barley is a new TV show on Channel 4, based off of the Nathan Barley of TVGoHome fame, written and directed by Chris Morris. Chris Morris is famous for On The Hour, The Day Today, and the controversial Brass Eye show, and Nathan Barley represents his first major step into narrative satire. It's hilarious stuff. It's not going to ever be as controversial as Brass Eye, but it's certainly funnier.

Nathan Barley is a pretentious 1990's media dickhead, with a penchant for crap music, clubbing, and being a self-proclaimed "media node." He'd make a great blogger. The show is all about Barley's fictional life in the East End of London, where his type were common during the dot-com boom of the late '90s. Anyway, it's the best noomeeja comedy since the dot-com drama, Attachments, where, incidentally, Little Britain's David Walliams got a break.

The Telegraph and the Independent both have good reviews, here and here.
