At what point did screaming "i'm the only gay in the village" make for hilarious viewing? pure bull.
the only thing in little britain i ever at anypoint found amusing was the pikey girl. It was related well to real life and was done pretty well and was amusing the first time you saw it, maybe even the second time. But after that its limited comical value was worn out.
I appreciate that the BBC feels obliged to waste as much of the licence fee as it humanly can, and that bigging up little britain in some way seems to justify the existence of BBC 3, but lets be honest it is bullcrap of the highest order.
I am more than happy to watch mindless crap, low budget productions, hardly any subject is taboo with me, I am a pisshead student for godsake! but this has to be the most over rated programme in the history of television, not clever, not witty, and shitte. those awards better not have been voted for, otherwise this country is in a worse state than i thought (and i am an optimist!)
I watched a few episodes to give it a chance, but it was awful. I don't like the Office either.
Now Rock Profile - *that* was funny!
People have more respect for that than for someone who goes out of their way to show how clever and individual they are by slating something for on reason beyond "I don't like it (to nick a quote", and it's popular".
It's just light hearted comedy, nothing more, nothing less.
I've actually been re-watching The Office series 1. Now that is funny.

Face value. He's not gay, that's plainly obvious. He just wants to be different. Every opportunity he gets of meeting someone who is actually gay, he backs off.
For all it's predictibility, I think Little Britian is absolutely genius satire.
Is there actually one or is it just meant to be taken at face value?
'He's locked in a room working on that hard to find second joke'
It was brilliant yeah it's cheap laughs and silly as hell but some mindless funny tv-shows are just what the bbc needed. So many people love this show. I think theres someone in the bbc building looking very smug at the moment and rightly so.
