Well they've been told that we find him funny, since he's starring in their verision of "the smash-hit UK tv show - The Sketch Show". However this has had a luke warm response, so I would conclude that neither Brits nor Americans find him too funny

Is it "It's Been a Bad Week"? That has it's moments, but sometimes has a lot of rubbish in as well.

most comedy on the radio seems to be an audition to get on the tv and it never seems as professional.

Just looked it up in the listings and it's called "The Day the Music Died"

ironically it's followed by "The Lee Mack Show"

I think he's hilarious!

The Sketch Show was the funniest thing on British TV for years! Not so much the second series though as that Australian woman irritated the hell out of me, but it's a real shame the first was so overlooked, and the Americans are about to ruin it!

Also the English language. Although a few here gave up on that years ago.

From what people have said so far, the American version is good but its really missing Gervais.

I've downloaded it off of BitTorrent, I'll watch it after the footy and give you my verdict.

It's not actually that bad, it's still funny in the same way as the British version is. All the characters are there, just that they have different names.

It's virtually unchanged, I'm just wondering whether the Americans will find it funny.
