Plenty of British people seem to miss half of the humour in there, which is probably why its never quite as celebrated as it should be.

And as far as LOG is concerned...Well that freaked me out enough, never found it hugely hilarious, just...Odd
I actually thought that myself - especially about LoG - but I figured Triple A was down with British humour as he specifically asked for Brititsh shows.
