Hilarious episode.

Mark is up for a promotion at work, he's fuming when he finds out that the job is given to love interest Sophie, he's even more annoyed when he learns that she hadn't even applied for it, she was simply called in after none of the interviewees came up to scratch. Jez is finally in the studio with Super Hans, and foolishly invites Toni, who ends up draped over Hans. Sophie's out to dinner with the bosses, and Mark foolishly thinks interrupting their meal and making a speech would be a good idea.

The badminton, what can I say, painfully funny, his frustrations were totally taken out on poor Sophie as he continuously smashed the shuttlecock at her, mixed with his dark inner thoughts, just laugh out loud funny. The psycho phone call was just insane too.

They know how to make cringe worthy, uncomfortable humour, and they came up with the goods in this one. Crazy, brilliant episode. 9/10

A series classic.

"Dream Job" is an incredible episode of Peep Show; probably my favourite in the season. Particularly, the whole scene where Mark urinates on work, and the accompanying scenes after that where Sophie is informed that "it's not p*ss" on the sheets. Mark's delivery is perfect.

Additionally, Mark's spiral down into depression is just hilarious, along with Jez taking Toni to the studio, only for Super Hans to interest her more.

What's so great about the show is the delivery of each line. Mark in this episode is almost evil; but his reaction (other than the extreme stuff) to not getting the job is really natural in the real world, where one is unable to accept that another person was picked, rather than YOU. Interesting, yet painfully accurate in some ways!

Pure hilarity, as expected from a show like this.
