Peep Show
If your brain narrates every awkward moment in real time, Mark Corrigan is your patron saint. 😬
Who it's for
Peep Show is filmed from the characters' point of view and lets us hear Mark and Jeremy's thoughts in voiceover, so the gap between what they think and what they do is the joke.
Feelings it meets
