Jam - or is it Jaaaaaammmmmm?

Wikipedia Entry

Wikipedia

Jam is a British experimental black comedy sketch show, created, written, and directed by Chris Morris. It was broadcast on Channel 4 between 23 March and 27 April 2000. It was based on the earlier BBC Radio 1 show, Blue Jam, and consists of an unconnected series of disturbing and surreal sketches, unfolding over an ambient soundtrack. Many of the sketches re-used the original radio soundtracks with the actors lip-synching their lines, an unusual technique which added to the programme's unsettling atmosphere, and featured unorthodox use of visual effects and sound manipulation.


IMDB Summary

IMDB

collection of bleakly dark comedy sketches pushing the boundaries of taste, decency and television in general, shot using new and different techniques and fading slowly in and out of each other against a slow musical soundtrack. Regular themes include death, insanity and, most often of all, the medical profession.

My Take

What do you get when you place distrubing audio on imagery that's a bit off? You guessed it, it's Jam. This one is more desturbing that confusing, and isn't that good, but still worth a watch.
