Just watched a few eps, it's not bad...:) It's actually a fairly similar spoof to Look around you so I don't quite get how Booby didn't like it...:\

I used to watch it every time it was on Adult Swim, it sho is funny.

Well I like Look Around You and a lot of the surreal and ironic humor that is considered a British trademark. I love me Monty Python.

I just don't understand the references in this show or what it's parodying. It must be a British thing.

Look Around You is just awkward. Funny, but god what is going on in that show.

I like it, it's the same kind of surreal, awkward humor that guys like Mitch Hedberg and Demetri Martin use. And growing up on PBS as a kid I know exactly what it's parodying.

It definitely is funny, no doubt. I laughed my ass off at the math episode. Awkward humor is hilarious. I think Tim and Eric Awesome Show does the same kind of thing but more random than "strategic" (if that's the right word) awkward humor.

Great show. One Track Lover is the greatest music video of all time. The humor is great and the cheese is perfect.
