ITCrowdOnline.com Its also got lots of interviews and facts about the show that I found really interesting. Certainly worth a look. I was very interested to see that the writer of The IT Crowd was also the writer of Father Ted and Black Books!! Theyre my other 2 favourite shows ever. I hope we see more IT Crowds to come and hopefully the writer will invent another bombshell of a show. ITCrowdOnline.com I just found this site where you can see every episode online.

The pay on a British sitcom, for everyone, is a fraction of what it is in Hollywoodland." Fine ... cut me a cool, BBC-style paycheck, and I'll do his work. “First off, the IT Crowd is a British sitcom produced for Channel 4 in the UK, not Hollywood.

It was a pain in the arse. Some people from the IT Crowd came in to borrow stock from the designer toy shop I used to work in once. It was a pain in the arse.

The pay on a British sitcom, for everyone, is a fraction of what it is in Hollywoodland. The show has garnered a large cult fan-base, mostly online, so that hasn't exactly led to fame and fortune for Graham Linehan or the rest of the show. So, he's actually appealing to the fans for some help, not, you know, trying to exploit all your hard work of suggesting things to put on the set.

If he thinks amateurs can do as well maybe he'll let some of them write, direct, edit some of the shows, too, run the cameras, hook up the lights, all in the name of keeping it real.
