Steven Moffat is a Scottish television writer and producer. Moffat's first television work was the teen drama series Press Gang. His first sitcom, Joking Apart, was inspired by the breakdown of his first marriage; conversely, his later sitcom Coupling was based upon the development of his relationship with television producer Sue Vertue. In between the two relationship-centred shows, he wrote Chalk, a sitcom set in a comprehensive school inspired by his own experience as an English teacher.

I binged it, I enjoyed it. I rated it this to specifically prevent myself from ever deciding to watch it again. The build up was certainly quite good, but the ending was over-the-top male-executive-style feminism that soured the whole thing for me. (But also expected from Moffat.)

Douglas Is Cancelled is well-cast and acted but as the mystery surrounding Moffat's story unravels, so do the characters' motivations. The climatic speech is sanctimonious. In the end, greed, manipulation and fickleness seem to come out on top but presented in way that almost feels righteous. That said, the mini-series is reasonably well-paced and often witty, so despite the direction it takes still worth a watch.

I watched this primarily because of Steven Moffatt, Karen Gillan, and Alex Kingston. The show was okay enough. The build up to the ending was pretty good. But I feel like the show will be forgettable.
