Don’t you dare watch any episode of Jerk until you understand Tim Renkow. Tim Renkow is a comedian, writer and previous Olympic Decathlon athlete representing good ‘ol GB. Tim has written all the episodes of Jerk, he’s responsible for most of the camera operation and even paid the entire crew with funds from his fortune. You must watch BBC Comedy Feeds-A Brief History of Tim before watching Jerk. You must watch Bobby & Harriet Get Married before watching Jerk. The type of comedy Tim Renkow represents places himself at the center of the punchline not just for laughs but to also make a tragic point. If what type of comedy Tim is trying to convey is unsettling to you, then Mr. Renkow has completed his mission. There is a reason why experienced accomplished folk such as Stu Richards and Lorraine Bracco are onboard with Tim for a reason - and it works. I’m just looking forward to the episodes with Idris Elba, in which he and Tim do some DJ work for some of the local pubs.
