Have you seen an episode of Extras? You'd get more laughs getting your cawk stuck in your zipper, which sums up nicely how painful it is to watch :dabs:

I'd say Peep Show is the funniest thing we have atm, hasn't failed once thus far :01:

Yeah I liked Extras at first but stopped watching it after a bit. HBO is bringing the second season over soon.

There's too much on to watch over here so I have to be very discerning. Oddly enough, I do watch the show Wanted which is full of (I guess:unsure: ) the American braggadocio that Brits are always blabbering about.:ermm:

Little Britain used to be funny and catherine tate can be funny sometimes, but Peep Show ftw :01:

As ziggy said before....

It's like a whole different over there.:unsure:

....but whatever works.....that's why we have different TV markets.

It does seem that, sans American comedy, our other TV shows seem to go over quite well abroad.

I was curious as to why Dr. Who hasn't been brought over here yet. My guess is that the BBC is shopping it for the best deal...even if it's on another network (besides BBC America).

That was one of few Brit shows I downloaded, watched, and enjoyed 'cause I remember the original from Public Television when I was a kid.

It hasn't been made yet, silly.:ermm:

It is being co-produced by HBO. Gervias has asked Tom Cruise to be in an episode.

I consider next year...soon, as far as TV is concerned.

ah, so what you are saying is that HBO will be broadcasting the second series of extras some time in 2006.
