Come Fly with Me

Holy Cow! Ten stars aren't enough for 'Come Fly With Me'. This Yank discovered it on streaming--and it's truly one of the best comedies I've ever seen. Lucas and Walliams are highly talented, versatile performers, and the material here is as funny as "Little Britain", only less raunchy. It's amazing how many characters the boys portray in the show, and I was nearly at the last episode before I realized a few of them--like Precious Little and Omar Baba--weren't played by other actors. The narration of the episodes, done in a very straight-laced manner, is a perfect contrast to the comic action. I bought the DVD, have watched it several times, and it always makes me LOL.....very few programs can do that. The one regret is that there are only 6 episodes of this gem. Matt, David, how about a 'Come Fly' encore, guys? Please?

Ashamed to say this but this show is probably only really funny if you've seen the 'fly on the wall' shows that they parody. The characters are pitch perfect send-ups of the hapless 'stars' of the airport based programs.

Less cruel than Little Britain, like many character based comedies, such as The Fast Show, this just gets funnier and funnier. David Walliams and Matt Lucas are top notch comedy actors, in some ways much too good for such light entertainment as this. Thank goodness they've dropped the catch phrases!

The format probably won't last for more than a series but enjoy it will its here.

I'm an American living abroad in China. I found this show and I love it. I love the Mocumentary style. The Voice over ads that perfect touch of seriousness to a wacky way out show. The production level is very good and the two "main" actors are very talented. I may not get all the jokes since it is geared towards the UK audience but this is OK. The Stereotypes are crude and offensive at times, but this is all played out to be just over the top and not taken serious. The two male leads play so many parts. Both male and female. At times it is so funny to see a hulking man play a women. It pays homage to Monty Python. I often wonder how they gained access to the airport they are in. I look forward to the rest of the season.

Great show and much more modern than Little Britain. The jokes and take on the idiosyncrasies of an airport are just great.

Pity it never got a second season and it is no longer available on most streaming services. But the DVDs asap and enjoy this timeless classic.

It's sad they made only one season of this show. Ian the immigration officer is hilarious lol
