3 hilarious british comedies: IT Crowd, Snuff Box, Garth Marenghi’s Darkplace

If you heard of the Office or Monty Python's Flying Circus, you'd know that the British have a variable penchant for comedy, burlesque and satire.

Fun fact: Matt Berry and Richard Ayoade star cameo in all three of these shows.

These videos are not safe for work as they have a fair amount of vulgarity.

IT Crowd

2 IT guys and a ditzy female supervisor in this hilarious tech sitcom.

Indeed, similar to the UK Office, IT Crowd was at one time slated to be ported to the US (even taking along Richard Ayoade!). However, due to screen writer's guild strikes and the economy, it was called off. Sometimes the UK versions are the best.

Snuff Box

Hilarious, surreal. UK meets US.

Garth Marenghi's Darkplace

Feels like ER in the 80's mixed with a horror twist.
