    Redundant and unnecessary.

    "Not for everyone, but absolutely hilarious" is i.m.h.o. the best way to describe these series.I describe it as "not for everyone" because you have to be able to stomach the awkwardness of it. Not everyone 'gets' the dark, often twisted humor. Actually I've tried to show it to some of my closest friends and most of them didn't 'get' the dark, often twisted humor.But if you're into awkward, weird, unfortunate, pitch-black humor then really; this is your series. All absurdity included; it's well written and the characters really have depth. You don't entirely want to be able to sympathize with them? But you will. And you will be absolutely curious to find out more about them. 'The League of Gentlemen' is one of those series that require the viewer to watch for an episode, maybe two.. and suddenly you find yourself loathing it will at some point come to an end because you're addicted to the inhabitants and the little town that you can enter, but never leave. Have fun watching it!

    I like British humor, I believe it's one of the best in the world. I like almost every British sitcom (okay... maybe not Monthy Python, some of the jokes were great, but some of them I didn't understand.), but this League of Gentlemen is just something good to make you sick. This show was good in some way; it helped me lost some weight because watching this piece of garbage make me feel I'm not hungry anymore. This is really just disgusting, sick and not even funny TV show and I wonder who is actually laughing at this stuff. I watched it for about 10 minutes and turned it off. It was so disgusting, watching men dressed in the woman with yellow teeth and urinating on the car... I mean... what's so funny about that??? It makes me wanna puke. No humor, just disturbing images and cheap, toilet laughs... I don't know... if you like this stuff... you go ahead... watch it... but to be honest, people watching and enjoying this must have some emotional problems. Garbage.

    Not funny - how can anyone link this to Monty Python? That is absolutely ridiculous - there are no laughs. This is not funny. Over the top, but ugly, weird just for weird sake and it seems to me these people were on something all the time. Unfortunately something that did not make them funny.It should be given some points for effort etc. whatever. Actually it appears there is a laugh track - or is there one? Hummm.... Since there are barely any laughs that's a debatable question.Maybe I'm doing it injustice - maybe it's some sort of exercise. Some sort of art - in that case anything goes, never mind.But these guys playing women with high-pitched voices, turned-up noses. Come on !!! Not funny. There is only one heir apparent to Monty Pythons intellectual wit and that is Stephen Colbert, and maybe Jon Stewart.

    About a year ago I finally gave up on American television. I thought of giving up television completely until a friend who had lived in England showed me some programs that included The Office, Extras, Blackadder, and The League of Gentlemen. It was then that I decided to switch to British television. Among all the shows listed above, The League of Gentlemen is easily the most dark and twisted of them all, providing guilty laughs and material not found in any other comedy I've seen yet. Characters included are the most unhappily married couple, a butcher that puts ingredients in the meat that go unsaid (probably for the best), a deranged couple that look over a local shop that only caters to local people, and the worst veterinarian ever. This program is one of the best I've seen.
