Another Brit here who thinks it is crap. I only watched 10 minutes and would like that part of my life back.
I am usually not a fan of lowbrow humor, but “Little Britain” now resides next to “Ace Ventura: Pet Detective” as two things that absolutely make me wet my pants. I have no idea why - I’m embarrassed to admit I am a fan of either one, but they just hit some nerve with me.

Winner!
I watched the first series of the original and thought it was so hilarious - and then I rapidly started to go off it when they started to go for more gross-out humour, dumb stereotypes and the repetitive nature of it all became really obvious. I’m not sure why or how it ever appealed to me, it became so crap. The US version is terrible from what I’ve seen.
Jesus Christ, I DESPISE that show. I have a pitch-black sense of humor, so am not offended at all, but it’s just completely devoid of humor.
I’m also one of the few Americans I know who can’t stand Tracy Ullman - a complete non-talent as far as her TV shows go. Maybe she’s a great chef or something, or can fix cars - she should do something she’s GOOD at.

No, you’re not missing anything. There’s nothing there to miss.
Yep. Got old very quickly. ‘Vicky Pollard’ is especially annoying. I caught a bit of the U.S. version last night. I chuckled a couple of things, but it’s not a show I really need to see.
