Spotlight Star
Nick Mohammed is undoubtedly going to be my Spotlight Star for Intelligence. Granted, he plays a main role and I usually spotlight the lesser-lined people, but this man deserves so much more credit for his genius than he gets. He deserves to be a household name, and not just as Mr Swallow (as performed on 8 out of 10 Cats Does Countdown).
To create, write, and star in a show like Intelligence takes a lot of talent, which Nick has in buckets.
Opinion
I enjoyed this show a fair bit. Nothing wowing, but a great creation. The characters are a tad thin, and it's difficult to remember even the regular roles, but it is the relationship between Jerry (David) and Joseph (Nick) that truly makes this sitcom unique.
