This is good but why do america take everything off the tv from the uk. This, pop idol (american idol) britain's got talent (Americas got talent) shameless (shameless usa) and alot more and basically all of the american versions are never as good.
Mary Lynn Rajskub has a very funny deadpan style, so to see her stuck with other people's broad, teatime humour is kinda depressing. She should be doing comedy on IFC or something.
And I still don't understand what the hell Kelsey Grammer has to do with this, other than an excuse to crowbar a recognisable name into a new show with unfamiliar faces.
Interesting that the bottom three in the billing ended up much more successful than than the top two...never even HEARD of the first two...no wonder the show failed...
Lee Mack pulls this from the depths of hell where it should be dwelling. I got no problem with it to be honest, but...the British cast were so much more...I dunno...able. Able to perform the sketches? More personable? Meh.
I really wish this show could have lasted. It was hilarious and had some serious potential.
And personally, I don't get why people complain that this is just about the same as the UK version. First, I'm happy just to have a version in our own country. Second, if it's the same, then it's just as good. Third, just as a matter of opinion, I believe the delivery of the punchlines of this show is actually better. Fourth, it still has Lee Mack! Come on! He's awesome! XD
This is utterly dreadful! Yet again, the yanks have taken a hilarious British show and destroyed it. The blond chick in particular cannot act, the only decent one is Lee Mack!
@slightlyodd999 Yeah that is very strange! If they were worried it was too British, they could have just edited out the snooker and cricket sketches and aired it as it was. >.>
@BryanV4 I'm not really sure how there can be much of a difference if they're just doing the same sketches with different actors. I'm just surprised they're doing the same material word for word.
i reckon the american version sucks.. why did lee mack join the cast? stay in the uk version! more funnier.. the american just mostly copy all the sketch from the uk version

And can I just say I think this US version is just as brilliant as the UK version. I'm in love with Lee Mack, but Malcolm Barrett is fantastic too.

If all of you hate it so much then go the regular british version rather than wasting your life complaining about things that don't matter
but i'll admit that the british one is quite funny
