Little Britain USA: Vicky Pollard (HBO)

[jaraandrew100]

My brother said Vicky looks like Kelly from "Misfits." -_____-,

[NmsAmped]

Whyyyyyy did they make an American version? I'm American and Little Britain is 10x funnier in the UK version. I laugh so hard. I just get bored with this version. I don't want to hear Americans talking. I hear that every fucking day. It's Little "Briiiiiiiiitain." Hopefully the producers we'll get enough hate mail and let us see your version on our tv.

[peaceoutrawkon]

Her speech may be slower but I like this Vicky better.

[MorningStar616]

Even funnier than the BBC version, and they haven't toned it down, thank god, still outrageous as ever. The gym rat sketch was great. A shame you have to have cable to see it in the U.S. It's shown OTA in Britain, but the FCC would probably ban it here.

I'm glad Vicky didn't tone down her accent - I can well understand her even though she's from like the Bristol area. Yeah, but no, but yeah, my American friends can't understand a word, haha, so I have to translate.

Stupid slags (not really).

[Aturayd]

yea but no but yea but no but..

[alialiante]

i already shut so shut up telling me to shut up

[ZaffireWolf]

0:20 They're gonna have ALL those here?

0:27 Ew, what is she wearing?

0:54 I thought Disney was dropping ties to Aristocats and Robin Hood.

1:22 Alright, what do you want? Do they need to start dropping tea chests into the harbor again?

[Tweedybirdcat]

yah but no but yah but no because i shouldnt really be here or something or nothing....

[Juanygirl]

Haley Evans reminds me of Lindsey Lohan

[littlespeedy25]

thats my friend lauren! she's in my chorus class and she's amazingly talented and im soooo proud to know herrrr(: i cant wait to ask her about this tomorrow.

[mediamadman747]

This HBO production of Little Britain is "bloody" awful.

Whether it was "kicked up a notch" for an American audience or HBO, it'll probably never be known. But, either way, it's a train wreck.

Wit and humor has been replaced with crude and often baseless humor geared more toward shocking its viewer into a nervous titter than inciting into genuine laughter.

Buy the original series and savor the originality, but save THIS particular offering for rental. You'll be glad you did.

[thedt]

I agree whole heartedly. I'm in Arizona and just learned about Little Britain from DVDs at Tempe Library and have been watching them for the last two months. When I found out on the Abroad DVD they were going Stateside, I cringed, thinking we'd ruin it, here in America. And we have. Not the same, folks. It's a shame. But, I'm glad they're here, working!!!

[Juanygirl]

This is so hillarious.

[hmoma1273]

vicky pollards awesome no but yeah but no she did nothing

[PureOrganics]

I wouldn't mind staying at camp with Haley Evans, ha ha.

[snowmanrog]

lmao i luv little britain

[unrecordable]

hahaha. i understand it. I wonder if they made it easier to "decode" for american audiences.

vicky is so funny.

[dukenthaylor]

i like it, hbo! stop pending, already!

[tamsin23]

This makes me wonder what Americans would make of "The Mighty Boosh".

[jingleasif121]

The Mighty Boosh!! Coming from an american who saw that show while visiting relatives, that is one of the best shows i have ever seen!

[evan0000000000000000]

I LOVE THE MIGHTY BOOSH! My friend and I got the whole school saying," I'm Old Greg."

[Bo0mbaby]

I <3 Vicky. She needs her own show.

[adamyanksbhr]

hahahah i love little britain usa!!! my fav show yeah but no but

[farfromfantastic]

Everyone knows she dyed her mustache!

[TSXboy26]

"hannah garvey said we should go back in after midnight and burn down the Peter Pan ride.....AS A JOKE" LOL

[EvilSpoon]

Vicky is probably my favorite character from this series!

[6teddy6bear6]

i just have a question y do u think all the americans wont get this show and that their having the character speak slower cause well gosh were just to stupid and slow to understand that fast talking girl. i dont mean to be rude but thats the way u r coming off. i like british shows so dont underestimate how smart we r because of our accent

[sooperd00p]

this show is amazingly lame, uhhh let's see, i never laughed once, i basically cringed at the dated references and predictable comedic timing. im a huge fan of British humor. this is not in that category. unfortunately, this falls under the NOT FUNNY genre of humor.

[Pianogirl84]

Well as an American I FRICKEN LOVE THIS SHOW!!! I'm born and raised in Oregon. And some of the "white trash" references made on this show may offend other people, but I think it hilarious because some of it is pretty accurately depicted, like the hunters going "WHOO HOO" all the time and how most Americans are obese! I just love this show and wish I had been watching it from the beginning of it's BBC Days! What fun is it if we can't be made fun of in good humor and not laugh?

[maudine06]

love the show. Dont think it will do good in US. Seems like even vicky is slowing down so americans can understand her.. just buy the series!

[lilaznpurplefreak]

I loveloveLOVE Little Britain, but I'm not really looking forward to Little Britain: USA...

[siralex64]

OMG.ur so racist i just told you the whole thing. right shut up

[kekeudompa]

i was so excited when i found out about this

[TheDoodlibop]

Chavette much? :p

[mikesw88t]

Yeah I never could understand British humor. I understand what she is saying but just doesn't appeal to me. I will give it a chance when it finally airs.

[siralex64]

lol to be honest americans wont like this show cuz were like making fun of them. like every where i guess i live in america but i still dont understand the dry humor of americans.. guess just a racial thing

[phreeck988]

The show makes fun of everyone

[rainbowgirl678]

i luv this show!!!!!!!!!! wat u talking about!!! speak 4 urself plz!

[cluelesscheese1]

seriously. i am an american and i think this is some of the funniest material ive seen in a while. i love vicky pollard. i love little brittan. this show makes fun of everyone. and if you cant laugh at yourself you shouldnt be allowed to watch it.

[Aerotake]

fair enough, but i wouldn't say this is a fair representation of british humour though...it's fairly lowest-common-denominator stuff. check out "i'm alan partridge", "extras", "the office" (UK) for an idea of quality british comedy ;)

[majordisplay]

I love Vicky Pollard!! Brilliant acting!!

[snakes4apples]

I wonder if the american one is going to be as good :D looks good so far

is it me or is she talking slower?

[MyPetsDontSmoke]

Looks like they've made all of the European accented characters talk slower. Must be most Americans (well 95% that I know) can't understand an English accent.

[cluelesscheese1]

dude i totally can. have you ever watched russell howard do his stand up? i understand everything and all the slang. its not rocket science.

[sfbaygirl]

We already get this show and others on BBC America and it is fairly popular, so it isn't completely new. AND would you expect us to understand an accent like Vicky Pollard has lol? That would be like expecting British people to readily understand what someone with a strong Ozarks or Appalachian accent is saying. Isn't the whole point of the joke that she is incomprehensible lol?

[fostinky]

what a chav

[LucindaLC]

thats what I was gonna say, "What a chav!"

[ostomyboy]

Yeah, but, no, but yeah, no, but yeah, no, but yeah, no, but yeah, no, but yeah, no, but yeah, no, but yeah....I think Americans will get it because we can have senses of humor and Jill says that Cathy wanted to see Thomas watch it on HBO and, no, but yeah, no, but yeah...It'll be great and yeah, no, but yeah, no, but yeah, no, but yeah...and Carol is such a liar!!

[Jessicax3lyonnss]

I'd just like to point out that not all americans get this .. but me and my friends well love it. We watch the show all the time (I have every season on DVD) I think that british humor is AH-MAZING. and Vikky Pollard is the best.

[mobidly]

I Agree. I love British humor. And I also get this myself. I like British over American humor. Except a Couple Like the Simpson's, Family Guy.

[JamesHarrison92]

Hailey Evans...hot =P

[bokajelos]

Is it just me or does she speak slower here than before?

[arielle8892]

Yes, Vicky does, it's probably because of the American audience and not being able to understand, or sumfin or nuffin.

[ghomsid]

I think so too..maybe for americans to understand better cuz they aint used to this accent u know...

[smallvilleSGL]

Who is the actress who plays natalie Curt at time 00:35?

[Wilbert0394]

Can't wait till it comes out, looks awesome!

[chris25wigan]

Pointless having it in america. They get offended by everything.

[alanbenner]

My fear is that Americans won't understand the whole chav culture when it comes to Vicky Pollard. It's like going to the UK and making Texas Longhorn references or spoofing American advertisements - the concept will be lost on most.

[prettykitty299]

LOL

[Iznibz]

Little Britain outlived its funniness by series 3.

Won't be watching this lame attempt to make more money for Walliams and Lucas.

[steviewooxxx]

what the f!!!!!!!!! What have they done to my favorite character?

[nifty5253]

i love little britai its sooo funyn!

[gabbi123]

kath n kim now little britain?

[PrismSparkle]

Is Daffyd coming too???????????

[gluey59]

everyone on this forum that has had a successful comedy series on TV step forward!come on then, you all have a bloody good opinion of someone elses brainchild! NO! i didnt think there would be any, considering the cost to you all as well! david and matt didnt just think oh we'll shove this on the box, and hope for the best.Damned ungrateful id call you all. so easy to diss and dismiss isnt it? if it doesnt suit you immediately and precisely you slag it off, and you are the next generation? grrr

[tomsega]

This is one British series I really don't think would work in the US..

[leonleonceur]

You americans said that about deep anal 3, but that was a US smash hit

[JahMooMoo]

the characters? u dum shit ov cors der english y da hel wud day change dem jst so day can hav a differant accent

[Karlifornication]

"Wahhhhh!!!" "Things are only good if just our group knows about it!" "WAHHH!! The Americans ruin everything WAHHH!!"

Take the sticks out of your asses, shut up, and wipe the tears off your faces.

[broodyfour]

I've noticed as a Canadian who is kind of stuck in the middle that the American's are taking good Brit shows and ruining them and they have so many good shows I don't understand why. They should just fuck'n by the rights to play the original series. Then again I think it's because they don't really go for the humor they need more swearing and less thinking.

[sfbaygirl]

Really, well this shows how ignorant you are. I defy you to find swearing on primtetime network television.

[TVBolsward]

Do they use the same actors as Little Britan? I hope so. They make the show to what it is.

[oscarstegland]

Yes. It's only two guys and they were the ones who decided to make Little Britain USA.

[QueenNothing22]

Hahahahaha I goddamn love this show! Can't wait to see this one, if it ever gets here.

[tanyharris]

I'm a Malaysian but I'm a huge Little Britain fan. Original Vicky is so much better, she lost her 'character' in this one.. but I still want to see it because it's still Little Britain but I prefer the original much more. British comedies are the greatest.

[jesoby]

talk about flogging a dead horse, it was one series too many in the UK - now this.

[Massagraf]

The USA ruined The Office already. Please don't ruin more British comdedy like Little Britain!

[issyking]

yeah, the american office is crap!!! don't touch our little britain!

[stanleykubrick98]

@issyking Are you fucking kidding me?! The American Office is 10 times better!

[NmsAmped]

@issyking uk office is personally kinda boring to me.

[afkamistan]

The characters are still english

[nonfiction88]

lollove vicky,not sure the americans will get it though.

[Tracking88]

haha this is the funniest character from little britain!

Im not sure americans will get this but I really encourage people to give this a try!

[Honeyangie]

hilarious!! love the show

[waallpaper]

Yet more evidence that you yanks cant make good comedy.

Office USA

Little Britain USA ........

[hardings930]

Welcome to Britain world. For those have you who don't know. Vicky represents a growing percentage of our youth here. Who would literally think there was nothing wrong with burning down a ride. But hey, very funny. I know so many girls like that

[indiaxdarcey]

my last names pollard and every1 calls me vicky

[0o0joka10o0]

i dont think this is going to be very big in america, I'ts legend in england!

[StanleyKubricksDick]

yeah your right but there has to be a moderate percentage of americans that like this how could you not!

[SeanJohn97]

well known in canada too! i love this show!

[BenHollliday]

looks like its gonna be a Vcackin' show

[amerkins]

NOOOOOOO!!!!!! I love this show and they're about to RUIN IT!!!!

[ammyrawiney]

this is terrible- I love this show, but it doesn't make any sense to set in the US. Plus Vicky's talking way too slow.

[Joe7946]

chavs in america - no

[angelpixiedust]

bah. they've slowed down vicky's speech, probably so she's more understandable in america. it makes it sound awkward and forced. psssh... they should swap this series for a westlife cd.

[Rockart9]

@angelpixiedust

i noticed that too... btw, i love the westlife ref. hehe good one :)

[damitajoey4lf]

Yh but nooo but yh but i shudnt be here

LOL

Vicky pollard's so funny

[rosiechatinenglish]

Will the American's get it? Its SO British with so many british references...

[TandEeesDad]

so true...

[archivesbc]

If there's one thing HBO has always had - it's money to make sure things work and to hire the best writers to do it.But I agree - should be interesting to see how it could be adapted without removing too many of the British references. It was nice to understand Vicky (finally!) - I think their adaptation for Vicky is: fast (not terribly fast as she did in the UK) plus low class British accent = an equally unintelligible Vicky for Americans.

[73tylernewman]

Woo, GO BRITAIN!

[teemuruskeepaa]

Beautiful girls with all sorts of behavioral problems, but they are categorized into one class of outcasts and labeled as problem kids. Even a drug abuser with violent girls. Society should forget camps like this and see the backrounds. The fault is really in the society as a whole.

[lora2708]

its a comedy love

[faketanchick]

lmao thats sooooo funny, vicky pollard is my favourite ;-)

[BabehLJ]

rofl

[mososaur]

HBO ruined little britain!

[pronyma]

so incredibly true!

[natsu76]

yeah but no but yeah ...is the comprehensible part XD

[sarahmst]

hahah love watching Vicky's sketches in drama class. couldnt understand much coz im so used to reading the subtitles on DVD lol

[idetached]

It's about time.  Discovered it thru Youtube. Love Little Brit. Especially, Bubbles, Sebastian and Vicky. The US is going to explode with laughter when they see these characters. I will definitely be watching. I know some in the US have homophobic issues, but hope some of these characters can still be shown. Thanks HBO.

[jimdin80]

I love love love little britain!

[poohnpotterfan]

I'm soooo happy to see Vicky on US shores!!!! I love her!!!

[xanderthemanonthe]

i dunno if Americans will get this...

[Heynowrcp]

LMAO im so excited!!

[gibsont1232]

this is crap compared to the orignal little britain wont work in the us because they wont let matt lucas and david walliams do what they want!

[peziak]

Thank God I recently started watching British shows or I wouldn't have understood a word out of Vicky Pollards mouth either.

[smurfieboo]

don't watch this rubbish, watch Peep Show instead.

[HeatProtection]

luckily i am british ^_^ so i understand everything she says XD lol
