This Time with Alan Partridge: Series 02
It has its moments but again, this show is Alan at his weakest. The trouble with the TV presenting mode Alan is that the format only lends itself to half the character that has been developed. You get all of the awkwardness, the right leaning inappropriateness and the bitterness of the character but none of the context you got during I'm Alan Partridge or the film etc where as bad as he is you saw snippets about him that made him somehow endearing and leant themselves to push him into the more ridiculous scenarios that made those incarnations gold. Alan on a low is much better than Alan on a high.
