British comedy stars David Walliams and Matt Lucas transplant some of their most popular "Little Britain" characters -- including Fat Fighter Marjorie Dawes, unconvincing transvestite Emily Howard, teenage delinquent Vicki Pollard, amorous prime minister Sebastian Love (who was the aide to the prime minister in "Little Britain") and Daffyd Thomas, the self-proclaimed "only gay in the village" -- across the pond to a Stateside setting, accompanied by several new American characters not seen on the British show.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

The Little Britain troupe can still produce some big laughs after relocating their satirical sketches to America, but the series' gleefully gross humor gives the gags a sour aftertaste.

Roger Catlin Hartford Courant 09/12/2019
Except for the canned laughter and tendency toward crude humor, it's mostly quite winning, crowned as it is by the pithy observations of the same announcer as the British show, Tom Baker. Go to Full Review

8.7/10
It's crude, it's crass, it's outrageous, but if that's your thing, Little Britain USA should be a welcome addition to your Sunday night viewing. Go to Full Review
