There's a lot to like about this show, which makes it's faults all the more frustrating. An early routine on reverse sexism is excellent, and could easily be five minutes longer, and there's another great dig at the patriarchal nature of society at the end. But maybe they haven't yet worked up material for a full hour together, and so resort to each taking a turn doing a bit of solo stand up. Amusing enough, but both felt disappointing after the sharpness of the observations when they were together.
It's still worth a look, for the best bits are very good. But I'm hoping they'll be back next year with a full sixty minutes of Holt & Talbot. That should really be worth seeing.
