Campus

TV SERIES 2011 1 SEASON

Overview

Campus is a semi-improvised British sitcom created by Robert Harley, James Henry, Oriane Messina, Gary Parker, Victoria Pile, Richard Preddy, Fay Rusling, and Christian Sandino-Taylor, with Pile acting as co-writer, producer, and director. At the fictitious Kirke University, the lives of the staff are explored, particularly the power-crazed and callous vice chancellor Jonty de Wolfe, lazy womanising English literature professor Matt Beer, and newly promoted senior mathematics lecturer Imogen Moffat. The series was initially broadcast as a pilot on Channel 4 on 6 November 2009, part of the Comedy Showcase season of comedy pilots. A full series commenced on 5 April 2011, with the first episode being a reshot and expanded pilot. Many critics claimed it was too similar to Green Wing and that much of the humour was offensive. However, others praised the dark humour and surrealism. It was ultimately cancelled after one series due to poor ratings.

This production, originally released in 2011, has captivated audiences with its unique storytelling. As a Scripted series, it brings a fresh perspective to the Comedy genre, maintaining a strong viewer rating of 6.2 across its 1 season.

Jonty and his team face extinction if they cannot harness their individual and collective brain power, some of which has not been exercised for many years, in an effort to reinvigorate their tired and vulnerable institution... but of course it's mainly a love story with lots of sex. What did you expect?
