Get
ready America. Hit BBC television show
"Little Britain" is bringing its outrageous
satirical humor to HBO in September, drawing
on stars such as David Schwimmer and Rosie
O'Donnell to lure U.S.
audiences.
The
show, a cultural phenomenon in Britain, is
the latest comedy import to the U.S. after
programs like "The Office," which airs on
the NBC network, have made their mark on
this side of the Atlantic.
Creators
Matt Lucas, 34, and David Walliams, 36, told
reporters and TV critics gathered here for
an early look at the show that they know how
far to push their riskier jokes and
trade-mark mockery of the disabled, poor,
gay and fat people.
In one
scene in "Little Britain USA," which
premieres on September 28, Lucas appears in
drag as the leader of a weight-loss group.
O'Donnell -- the gay U.S. actress and talk
show host -- drops in for a visit, playing
herself.
At one
point, Lucas' character asks O'Donnell if
she is a lesbian because her weight made it
hard to find a man.
Walliams
said that O'Donnell was a "good sport" and
did not ask for a word to be changed from
the sketch.
"I think
the boundary is, if it's funny," said
Walliams, "and I think it's helpful that
we're doing it in front of an audience
because if, for example, we'd done that
Rosie O'Donnell sketch and people weren't
laughing -- it was uncomfortable -- I don't
think we'd want to show
it."
"I hope
that even though that's pretty outrageous,
it's done with warmth," he added. "We're
obviously sort of exaggerating people and
it's got to have some feeling of silliness
about it, which stops it from being
unpleasant."
So there now
you know it airs 28th September be
