So, I noticed there's a full season of a British show called Green Wing on Hulu. Each episode is about an hour long, so I'm wondering if anyone here has anything to say about it before I dive in.

I see the blonde fox from Coupling in the promo pic, so the show has that going for it.

It's pretty funny. Very British humour, but that seems to generally export well.

It's quite surreal (though in a totally different way from Scrubs) and I really like it. Can't think of how else to describe it other than silly.

I watched the first couple of episodes last night. Enjoyed what I saw.

So I watched the whole season over the weekend. I really hope they put the second season and possibly the 2 specials on Hulu soon (as it is not available in the US on DVD).

The characters are all so god damn wacky I could not stop laughing.

I just started watching this a couple of minutes ago.  So far I have spotted two people from Black Books and one from the Daily Show.  I don't think this can miss.   DRILLING AND MANLINESS

Watching the characters do silly things in either fast forward or slow motion will never get old  DRILLING AND MANLINESS
