Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment

SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped

Steineded How sad is this?

MartinHafer Before I'd seen my first episode of "Little Britain USA", I'd talked to some British friend about the series. While we all agreed that we liked the original series, they told me not to even bother with the newest Americanized version--it just wasn't funny. Well, I got HBO a few months later and watched this new series with feelings of great dread...and found that I really liked the show...about as much as the original. Sure, some of my favorite characters are gone (such as Daffyd), but many of the old ones (such as the evil fatty-hater, Marjorie as well as the Prime Minister's assistant--who is now the Prime Minister himself!). One other inclusion from the original shows that I was thrilled was present were Tom Baker's inane narration--it was perhaps even more stupid (and funny) than before. My only reservation is exactly the same one I had about the original all-British shows--there is an awful lot of repetition and a few more characters would have been appreciated. Still, all these shows make me laugh...a lot!

Thomas Hardcastle I really like the three series of Little Britain (the British version). They're in no way my favourite comedy show (South Park, Family Guy, The Office, Extras, Spaced, Brasseye and Big Train all come above it), but as far as sketch-show comedy goes, the original series was pretty good.Watching Little Britain USA, I can't help but feel disappointed that many people will not like it, therefore they will not want to visit the original British series, which I think is so much better than this.The jokes are more immature than before, and some of them simply are not funny. Overall, the show still generates laughs and is enough to pass the time in a semi-pleasant way. Just don't go expecting award-winning comedy this time around.

ryman1000 Words cant describe how poor this show is. Prior to the show being broadcasted in the UK there were mixed reviews of the series from United States residents. I personally did have high expectations for it, expecting it to be as original and witty as Little Britain has always been. I mean i used to love theses guys, they were amazing, their smart jokes, used to leave you laughing on the floor. I own every DVD and never get bored of it.But this was terrible. I fail to believe how anybody, could find one sketch of this even remotely funny. Just terrible joke after joke which were all so cheesy and unimaginative.I mean they could have made these sketches an hour before the show and would have done a better job. From the annoying studio audience laughing at cringe worthy jokes that just made you want to shout at the telly "That wasn't Funny !! " They must have been paid heavily to go through that torture. Every sketch was poor and weak and i wouldn't be surprised if this was cancelled off air.Even David Walliams and Matt Lucas acting was extremely bad,and i thought i'd never say that ! Its as if they just took the first shot and left it as it was, if it was bad - oh well. If it was good then its a bonus. And all the kids who seemed like drugged robots. Where did they get them ? Surely they could have hired kids from an acting schoolAnd finally when one slightly funny sketch (Fat Fighters) eventually came around that was just completely ruined by the frustrating audience who by the end of the show i wanted to shot. But even this wasn't that great.If you haven't seen this, you'll probably ignore the bad reviews as I did, thinking that Little Britain has an will be great. Be prepared to be disappointed Little Britain fansThis doesn't even deserve a 1 out of 10. If you want to waste 30 minutes of your life on this then go ahead. But BE WARNED ! ITS TERRIBLE !

Erin Madsen I loved the original Little Britain and was prepared to really like LB:USA since HBO's got a track-record of nurturing good writing. But, here's the thing: the laugh track in the original serves (at least in my opinion) as a bit of double-irony. The jokes are puerile and play on basic stereotype. They're easy to laugh at already. No laugh track required, so its addition works as a counterpoint to the irony. Not so in the American version; it actually feels like a degradation of the jokes. Or maybe I'm overthinking this thing. Tell you what. If you've seen and liked Little Britain, you'll like Little Britain: USA, because it's god-damned funny and Tom Baker still does the narration. If you've never seen it, try it. But don't act like you didn't know it's not American-style. The word Britain's right there in the title.
