The Fast Show (1994–2014)
9/10
Forget Little Britain. Watch this!
14 January 2012
For some reason 'Little Britain' proved popular with Americans. Little Britain is not bad but the show from which it was obviously influenced...is 10 times better.

The characters on 'The Fast Show' rely more on outright humour than on coarse language or toilet humour. I'm no prude but when shows over use those nuances, it shows they are lacking in ideas and after a cheap laugh.

The Fast Show does not do this.

Characters like Bob Fleming, Ted and Ralph, The competitive dad, Johnny Painter (it's black, black!),The Jazz Club, Monkfish, Ron Manager, Roy and Renee,Suits you tailors, Swiss Tony and Unlucky Alf will have you in stitches.

If you liked Little Britain then I suggest you stay near a toilet as you may need to go quickly as The Fast Show makes Little Britain seem about as funny as toothache, sudden baldness and explosive diarrhea suddenly appearing at a job interview.

It's Brilliant...Fantastic!
