America doesn't make British TV shows better. It just dumbs them down so that you slack jawed yankee fucks can understand them. And no doubt you show your appreciation by firing guns into the air
@ashmaceyn I should say that this is bordering on some kind of thoroughly un-PC racism, but as a Brit, I can't help but piss myself laughing in agreement.

This needs an American remake because we take British TV shows and make them better all the time - e.g. The Office.
If this was presented by someone talented and intelligent like Bill O'Reilly instead of this lefty liberal scumbag Christopher Morris the viewing figures would rise so fast!
I don't get most of the jokes in this but then again they are from Limeys LOL. Brass Eye USA would be frickin AMAZING!
Bill O'Reilly is the Fox news reading cunt who rationalised that the death rate in the US is higher than in Canada because there are more people in the US, hence there are more people to have accidents, or be murdered.
Yeah, because you did a great job with Coupling, Red Dwarf, Dad's Army, The IT Crowd, Men Behaving Badly, Spitting Image, Trigger Happy TV, and a host of other shows...
Some of the funniest stuff I've seen in a while. The coco shunter scene from this episode, the TECHNOLOGY scene from the science episode, and the armed father scene from the crime episode can be viewed over and over again. Comedy Central should pick up the Brass Eye series. If Look Around You, Garth Marenghis Darkplace, & Mighty Boosh can make it on Comedy Central, surely this series could as well.
The only thing that I know of right now on American TV that mocks the media and celebrity with such vengeance is Tony Barbieri as "Jake Byrd" on Jimmy Kimmel Live. I have never heard of Robert Elms, so I googled his name. It mentioned he championed Spandau Balet. For all of the great bands that came out of England in the late 1970s & early 1980s, to choose THAT band, he must be a coco shunter.
You know, I still can't tell if that church sequence was prepared or whether the priest and congregation were completely uninformed and very confused.

You are attempting satire?
Bill O'Reilly is the Fox news reading cunt who rationalised that the death rate in the US is higher than in Canada because there are more people in the US, hence there are more people to have accidents, or be murdered.
And this was without being satirical.
