Little Britain Comes to AmericaE. "Doc" Smithbyline‚ Oct. 03‚ 2008Last Sunday night, I watched with dread as one of my all-time favorite British comedies made it's debut on HBO. Like the successful "Extras" with Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant before it, HBO has delved into the world of Brit-coms again, wisely bringing the geniuses of the original series with them. "Little Britain USA" is an American spinoff of the successful British BBC television series Little Britain. As in the British series, the show will mainly focus on characters played by Matt Lucas and David Walliams. With Tom Baker of Doctor Who fame reprising his role as narrator, I settled back for a half hour of some of the sickest comedy I have ever seen. |
