While watching these clips, mu husband & I were amazed at how simple, yet entertaining it was! Some of these clips reminded us of people we knew, including family members, in-laws etc. IT was a hoot! We laughed out loud, and our kids (17 and 23) thought we were nuts.....but then we liked Benny Hill, too. A sense of humor is so important these days!
I hope it will continue, a nice refreshing change for Monday nights! Good start to a work week!

I watched this show last night for one reason, I knew my stupid ex-husband would let my 9 yr. old watch it. And as I expected, it was about not remotely funny to somebody with any common sense. If the majority of Americans think this show is funny, no wonder society is the way it is. Society has become a wasteland of the human mind if people think dogs smelling each other’s butt and a parrot talking about all her aliments as she gets older is funny.

I interviewed "Creature Comforts" executive producer Kit Boss on Mr. Media: http://www.mrmedia.com/2007/05/kit-boss-creature-comforts-exec.html . He was previously a writer and producer on "King of the Hill" for seven seasons.

Maybe it was just the whole down-to-earth Britishness of the original but the dryness and completely natural comments made it a gem.

If this is 1/100th as good as the original it will be superb.

The original British special, series (and the commercials for British Gas that started the whole thing) were beyond brilliant. Adam, you should try to see them ASAP--season 1 of the series is Netflix-able.

I don't think you have to worry about the younger people, we will watch just because we all loved Wallace and Gromit.

I loved the original UK version, short and series. And am very much looking forward this this one.
