Who'll love it
Made for anyone who wants a laugh. If you loved 2 Broke Girls or The Office, start here.

Light and funny.

One season: easy to finish in a weekend or two, short, snackable episodes, about 3 hours in all.
What might put you off
It was cancelled, so the story may not get a proper ending.

Fried follows the staff in the struggling Croydon branch of a low rent fast food chain, "Seriously Fried Chicken". We follow the group as they navigate the greasy world of nugget vending under the watchful gaze of Mary, their eternally optimistic but desperately ineffectual branch manager. Her job is coveted by bitter assistant manager Derek, who's been working at the restaurant "since it were a Wimpy". Then there's geeky teenager Joe, who only has eyes for Amara; and the man who's decided they're best friends - foul-mouthed and relentlessly self-absorbed Ed; and the older, always riled Shontal. Every week the team have to deal with the customers, each other and the indelible smell of oil.
