This is one of the funniest T.V. shows I have seen in a long time. A mix of Monty Python, Kids In The Hall and toilet humor, Little Britain is laugh-out-loud hilarious.
Matt Lucas and David Walliams create some of the most memorable characters in a long time. Yes, the show runs their characters into the ground and it becomes repetitive but when they are fresh, these caricatures are winners.
Some of my favorites:
Marjorie Dawes, the hypocritical leader of the Fat Fighters, who calls her customers fat despite being overweight herself.
Sebastian Love, the openly gay aide to the Prime Minister of the U.K.
Emily Howard, the Victorian era cross-dresser.
Vicky Pollard, the fast-talking teenage delinquent.
Daffyd Thomas, who claims to be the only gay in the village when there seems to be plenty of them around him.
Kenny Craig, master hypnotist.
There's other characters I like, though some of them aren't as funny. It can be hit-or-miss.
The show also relies on a lot of toilet humor and tastelessness at times, seemingly in the later seasons.
Still, it's a tremendous show. I hope to see Season 3 on Netflix soon. However, I would definitely not allow kids to see this show. It's R- rated to be sure.
