"Little britain- How depressing"

I see it dominated the british comedy awards, how depressing, a program which is about as fun as finding out you have TB, cancer and AIDS and running your own personal sweepstake on which will kill you first.No offence but this programme is moronic. I am not sensitive to this kind of thing, but they get away with a lot, I wouldn't mind if it was actually relatively funny. Hahahahahaha we will try and take the pisss out of disabled people in the least funny way possible whilst spawning the most stupid and annoying catchphrases ever. If you want to make humour of of the situations at least make it vaguely funny, Timargh in south park is pretty amusing and is related to the same subject matter, thats because they try to actually be funny and slapstick rather than constantly see how much they can get away with.

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!)

1st series, especially first episode= very funny
went downhill from there really, dont whatch it anymore

I wouldn't say it was dire but it is getting stale now.

Little Britain is dire.
Anyone who thinks otherwise is wrong.

Last night they showed an entire series for about the 304th time this month. They need to give it a rest for a while and let people have a break.

What the hells a matter wid u all its the FUNNIEST fing on t.v without a shadow of a doubt its the same fing ever episode mayb but they still seem 2 b originall and HYSTERICAL and the dvd no extras bull theres tons u need 2 use the remote and clik on EXTRAS 2 c inter deleted scenes, live its awesome so if u don ave ne fing gd 2 say about little britain u deserve 2 b shot thanku.

Yeah, 15 Storeys High, hilarious. I only caught 2 shows of the 2nd series, on BBC3, never heard of it before, then it disappeared again.

Like when I saw 'I'm Alan Partridge' or 'The Office' for the first time, I just cod'nt believe how funny it was.

The 1st series is on DVD [no extras at all], but I'm gonna wait for the box-set. Looking forward to it coming back, but its like the BBC are trying to keep it a secret or something

I enjoyed the first episode I ever watched. But as you know the show is based on the same sketches, with a few things changed each time. So if you've seen one of each series, you've pretty much seen them all.

Comedy shows I do actually enjoy: Alan Partridge, The Office, The League of Gentlemen, Monkey Dust, Red Dwarf, Phoenix Nights, Monty Python and the list could go on.

DISCUSS.

Especailly this.
I loved it.

Anyone even know where it went?
They were showing the 2nd series at about 11 o'clock on BBC ages ago, then kept swapping the times and days around, then they stopped it for the snooker or some other tosh and it never came back.

rargh

Very true, it's worse than channel 4 and Friends.

They show the episodes far too regularly on BBC three.
