mntag04's rating
I have been a fan of Little Britain for a long time. I live in the USA but downloaded and watched all the UK episodes like I do a lot of British TV; Top Gear, Saxondale, Ali-G, I'm Allen Partridge, the Original Office, etc, etc.. I am a true lover and connoisseur of UK comedy shows. Little Britain is no Saxondale but it is a great show.
When I first saw Little Britain USA I nearly threw up laughing so hard! Not only has the show evolved and gotten more edgy it is clear that they are able to go much further because of the R rated content HBO allows that BBC in the UK did not.
It funny to see the negative responses on here, they seem to be mostly from people from the UK. And I suspect that the only reason they don't like it is because they went into it determined to hate it just because of the "USA" on the end of the title. If they ever got the show before they would really love the "USA" version that does not hold back! This show makes jokes about sexuality, racism, etc. that most American TV wont touch. This is something that has been funny about The Office, Saxondale, Ali-G, even Top Gear for years. The fact that the people from Britain don't get how over the top that is here for this audience, mixed with the sheer raunchiness allowed by HBO over BBC is truly their loss!! And I suspect more about a miss placed sense of anti-Americanism than a true evaluation of the show!!
