I like it. I've only watched the first 3 or so episodes. Noel Fielding is a bit of a legend, tho.

What he said, only with more agrression. Fielding's fine on stuff like Never Mind The Buzzcocks, but I hate the whole "lol, random" humour thing. Honestly, it's worse than Ross Noble.

Heh, I was holding back :P
I've seen the first series. my Friend (who is a huge MB nut) made me watch it. I remember thinking "Good Lord, this is awful" somewhere between Noel Fielding started dancing around with a giant polar bear to a very poor musical number and the scene where a Kangaroo is fought in a boxing ring.
Perhaps even more annoying for me is Noel Fielding. the first I saw of him was on "Alan Partridge presents the cream of british comedy" dvd which is a live dvd of stand ups hosted by coogan as Partridge. All the stand ups were decent enough (minus little Britain) but then Noel came on. It was cringeworthy. He's far too timid - which works for some people, clearly - and he isn't particularly funny. It completely baffles me as to why this show is as acclaimed as it currently is...

I have to say I do pretty much love it. I am not obsessive about it, catch it when I can, but it can have me in stitches. There simply is some brilliant timing and some great ideas. I don't think it is really highly acclaimed at the moment, not in comparison to Little Britain, which people are far to willing to forget it isn't funny apart from Tom Baker. Boosh just have an extreme fan base.
Also, it is refreshing to see something like that get on TV. I am sure if it wasn't for Steve Coogan's backing, it would never of got commissioned.

I don't really like it, most of my friends enjoy it but to be honest it looks like another little Britain to me

It's something of an acquired taste, perhaps. It's more about the little world they've created then anything, and it's not a 'laugh-out-loud full of gags' type of comedy, but a quality comedy it still is. You either get it or you don't.
It's also nothing like Little Britain which is more reason to give it a chance.

I must say i've got a bit tired of it recently even though I voted for loving it, the third series seemed to have run out of original ideas and therefore was either too extreme to be funny or recycled old jokes either in a slightly different way or under the guise of self referential humour
It gets most annoying when it is random for the sake of it rather than because it can add something to plot or be a strange juxtoposition of the normal and the abnormal, personally I find it funniest when it twists the real world rather than just make up some nonsense.
While I find it very funny when it's on form I don't think it is the greatest thing since sliced bread as some people do and their cool, cult celebrity status is a bit annoying. I think it just gets taken a bit seriously when it's not meant to be, it's meant to be funny

Ah my beautiful clone, couldn't of put it any better. I have only seen 2 episodes from the third series though and I found them to be better then the first, which was a little hit and miss.

Oh I love a bit of Boosh. Did you hear about them suing sugar puffs because in their latest advert the honey monster was having a crimp off - it was a blatent copy.
They should leave Boosh alone now though - a 4th series would be too much as the 3rd was looking less fresh.
My favourite comedy at the moment is the flight of the conchords - I advise you to take a look if you haven't already.

The Boosh rocks like see-saws on a honeymoon. Noel Fielding is God.
End of.

My idea involves fireworks, duck tape, a large table, 3 packs of Haribo and a giraffe. More details upon request.
