A Quick Laugh and Easy to Watch
After finishing Blackadder (another BBC1 classic), I found myself in a bit of a British sketch comedy drought (for literally 3.4 seconds) until Amazon suggested this marvelous 26-episode series. Composed of disjointed and often bitingly-satirical vox pops, musical bits, and innuendo-ridden sketches, Fry and Laurie make for a quick laugh and easy watching, though as an American you might feel occasionally left out of a joke (it is British humor, after all). The two have an undeniable on-camera chemistry and offer a different kind of comedy than what you'll find on American television today. Perfect for fans of The Office (UK) and old-school (or "classic," to those of you over 40) Saturday Night Live.score 8/10
