Ssshhhh

I found the article quite funny in some ways although I believe he was getting some heavy criticism on the web about his appearance with the Uruguay fans.

I heard some were taking it a bit too seriously as well. I just find it very funny.

Hiddy looks younger than I thought! He suits the red wig, though.

Yes, a couple if episodes....I should try to find the time to watch a few more as they are quite funny.
I don't know if they are still available on Netflix.

Like little britain, I found it repetitive. Watching one was funny, two had a couple of laughs, but after that it's all the same.

Much the same could be said for innumerable formulaic sketch shows. And 'Allo 'Allo, etc etc etc.

They're on iTunes, I got them from there - if you'll pardon the pun.

Quite funny to begin with but I do agree, it goes downhill quite fast. Still makes for decent drunk TV though

Yes, Mr Bean was terrible crap, especially with the painful laughter.

Strangely I never found Blackadder to have the same problem.

Plenty of comedy that isn't formulaic. Red Dwarf for example. How I met your Mother as a recent show. Only Fools and Horses was never formulaic, just boring and irrelevant.
