A Bit of Fry and Laurie?

Just happened upon this series on Netflix while looking for Jeeves and Wooster (which isn't there right now).

It's hilarious, plus it's fun to see Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie on the cusp of 30 years old. Laurie's musical numbers are amazing! (and also very funny).



BTW, if you're into this sort of rapid-fire British sketch comedy, Netflix currently has Little Britain and That Mitchell and Webb Look, which are both very funny.

In fact, I'm on the lookout for all of the comedy series that used to run on BBC America on Saturday nights, like Creature Comforts, Just For Laughs: Gags, The Kumars at Number 42, and Goodness, Gracious Me.

I ended up finding the entire Look Around You comedy/science series on bitorrent... It was worth the time to download, and am grateful that I learned about the dreaded Helvetica Syndrome in time to avert disaster...
