One department store. Two opinions. Endless awkward laughs.
In this episode of TV Tortured, Jacob and Laura brave the polyester jungle of Are You Being Served?, the British sitcom that asks, “What if your coworkers were walking punchlines with questionable sexual tension?” Focusing on the episode “German Week,” they unravel the glorious mess of cultural misunderstandings, suggestive gags, and the passive-aggressive power plays between Mr. Peacock and Mrs. Slocum. Laura's fully onboard the Grace Brothers train (and possibly driving it), while Jacob wonders if it's time to derail. They debate whether retail ever looked this ridiculous, rate the theme song like it's Eurovision, and ultimately agree: this show is a chaotic gem that America could never quite copy. Tune in for nostalgia, nitpicks, and one very British deep dive.
