My Take
What I find remarkable about Steve Pemberton is how comfortable he is in the dark. The League of Gentlemen introduced me to his knack for grotesque, unsettling comedy, but it's Inside No. 9 that cemented him for me. Each self-contained episode with Reece Shearsmith feels like a small magic trick, twisting from farce to dread in twenty-odd minutes. I admire that he writes as well as performs, disappearing so completely into characters that I sometimes forget it's the same man. He's a Blackburn-born craftsman who never seems content to repeat himself, and that restlessness is exactly why I keep watching.
