Little Britain USA (Season 1)

Little Britain USA (2008) is HBO's six-episode sketch comedy series you can watch online on iFILM, directed by David Schwimmer. Matt Lucas and David Walliams brought their most outrageous BBC characters to American soil — the overgrown mama's boy, the unyielding social worker, the woman who keeps vomiting at the sight of anything vaguely unpleasant — and let them loose on a continent with no idea what was coming.

The show is stacked with cameos: Sting, Paul Rudd, Rosie O'Donnell and Vivica A. Fox all turn up as targets for the absurdity. Lucas and Walliams don't sand down the edges for American audiences — they find just as much grotesque material in US culture as they ever did at home. Acquired taste, but if you already know Little Britain, the transatlantic move lands. Stream Little Britain USA online on iFILM.
