Season 1 - Episode 3
Comedy Central (UK)
Threesome started with a very impressive double bill last week, which showed great promise for the rest of the season. Unfortunately, the promise was totally lost in Episode 3, which is an absolute stinker of an episode with very few redeeming features whatsoever.
While the first two episodes painted the three main cast members as likeable, while wildy irresponsible, basically everything that made them likeable is gone in this episode. While I understand that having a baby will change people, the changes shown here are ludicrous, and the plot(ante-natal classes and a ridiculous robot baby), if it can even be called a plot is so thin that it just fails to keep any interest, which in a seven episode season is completely unforgivable.
Threesome could have been great, the premise is something new, and the cast seemed to have great chemistry. But if the rest of the season is anything like episode 3, this is a show that will very quickly find itself on the scrapheap.
