'Deliciously vile' -The Guardian
'What was astonishing was that it made me laugh. Not just once but quite a lot, repeatedly...the script is tight and witty and filthy and doesn't sag. I think the key to it being sort of brilliant is that all TV comedians have a relentless arrested development and are pitifully juvenile. So when you see real adolescents telling jokes and being disgusting, it turns out to be actually funny. The main character, the public schoolboy, is a Mini-Me version of David Mitchell.' -The Sunday Times
'The smutty, fitfully funny, schoolboy comedy moves over from E4 in the same week as series three of Skins, sparking inevitable discussion about which offers the more realistic depiction of teenage life.' -The Guardian
'Jaw droppingly discomfiting and achingly truthful, the (all-too-brief) highs and (all-too-prolonged) lows of teen life are plumbed for comedy value in this excellent schoolbased show as briefcase-wielding nerd Will and his classmates relentlessly mock each other's humiliations. In other words, Schadenfreude of the highest order.' -The Independent
'The Inbetweeners is comedy of the highest quality while also puerile, disgusting and faintly inappropriate.The Inbetweeners is age-defying because it contains the universal truth that at 17, you are seldom serious, tragic or deep anywhere other than in your own mind.' -Broadcast Magazine
'A deserved hit when series one was shown last year...' -The Telegraph
