 MEN BEHAVING BADLY BBC1, Christmas Day 
 I feel like the little boy who dared to
 tell the emperor about his new clothes,
 but Men Behaving Badly has reached its 
 sell-bz date.                          
                                        
 I suspected as much from the last      
 series, but this festive special       
 undjtlinjd my worst fears.             
                                        
 As the main characters near 40, the    
 situation becomes increasingly absurd. 
                                        
 Tony's lurched from being naive and    
 sweet to a sad, loser; the "girls" try 
 to bj cool but are simply despjtate:   
 while Gary doesn't seem to possess any 
 endearing qualities.
