I have been a fan of the series since it started over in UK and think it hilarious. Little Britain in America has just started over hereand it is also as funny. Im just wondering what Americans think of it?

Here is afew of my favorite charectors lol

I liked the first series. But it quickly became clear as it went on that Little Britain is just the same jokes over and over again, sometimes with added 'gross out' material. It was so tiresome when it kept on winning awards. I did like Anthony Head as the Prime Minister, though, those sketches were always amusing.

But I'm not American so my opinion doesn't really count...

I have always thought it was non-funny crap. I really don't like it. If I want to watch a sketch show, I'll watch an old episode of the Fast Show or Harry Enfield or I would simply poke out my eyes, that way I'll never see Little Britain, again, ever . Terrible program.

It never really caught on here. The USA version came and went. It was ok but very repetitive.

The Kids in the Hall's new show "Death Comes to Town" is very similar.

Thank God. Dreadful programme. Lucas & Walliams have never been funny together in any of their previous incarnations, either. That said, I did like Lucas as the George Dawes on Shooting Stars.

I do like Lucas allot but that Walliams gets on my nerves, he has completely ridden the coattails of Lucas imo.
