Little Britain
Have any of you guys seen “Little Britain on BBC America? I don’t have cable and this stuff usually passes me by.. It is the most outrageous and funny thing I have seen in a long time..

Twice. It just wasn't a show that kept me coming back for more.

I've been renting "Fawlty Towers" DVD's from Netflix lately and they always make me laugh! John Cleese is a genius!

Britcoms can be great. Love Fawlty Towers. Check out "Yes, Minister" - hilarious.

Guys,
Its not comedy..these are 'reality' TV shows..... Seriously they are funny because they reflect very accurately certain segments of UK society...and the unerring faithfulness of the satire is amusing...

Unbeliveably accurate. These are not silly Benny Hill-style broad comedies, not at all.
How about that Katerine Tate show? I did not even get to that one. Are they even allowed to show such a thing in the USA? This is on late night cable only... She had a skit on "gingers" (Redheads) that has a "cringe factor" that makes Curb your Enthusiasm look like mere childs play.. |
