A woman shares her thoughts on Gavin and Stacey, revealing her dislike for Smithy while loving Nessa in a recent online discussion.
Cardiff: So, you know Gavin & Stacey, right? It’s that classic sitcom that everyone seems to love. But believe it or not, there are still folks out there who haven’t seen it. Crazy, right?
One woman, who just started watching, took to Mumsnet to share her thoughts. She said she loved the show but couldn’t stand Smithy, played by James Corden. Ouch! True fans might be cringing right now.
She posted, “I’m not sure why I never watched this back in 2007, but I finally started this evening! Up to the wedding episode. Smithy is a horrible character, but I love Nessa!”
Other fans jumped in to defend the show. One user, RunVelma, shared how much she adores it, saying it’s her go-to comfort show. She even watched it during tough times, like when she was in early labor. That’s some serious dedication!
But not everyone agrees with our Mumsnet friend. Some fans think Smithy is hilarious and can’t understand the hate. One person even said, “How could you form that opinion? We rewatch it a few times a year!”
For many, Smithy is a lovable character, known for his funny moments and his close friendship with Gavin. James Corden, who co-created the show, has said it changed his life in so many ways. He’s super proud of what he and Ruth Jones created together.
This Christmas, fans will get to see the cast back together for the last episode ever. Gavin & Stacey: The Finale airs on Christmas Day, and it’s sure to be a tear-jerker!
