what if Borat was a British woman? We are supposed to laugh at the brash stupidity, fatuity and pretention of Cunk's musings and the incredulous answers of polite, well-educated interviewees.

We are supposed to laugh at the brash stupidity, fatuity and pretention of Cunk's musings and the incredulous answers of polite, well-educated interviewees. Just like in Borat, with less toilet humour, it gets boring very fast. The Brits do have this very bad habit of hiding their inflated ego and lack of substance behind this hypocritically fake self-effacing mockery. Un très mauvais goût.... Expand

She trounces thru historical sites with her droll deadpan delivery, dropping truly funny wise cracks. There are some interviews with experts, which make them look either flummoxed or unamused, while she comes off even more dense. The humor sometimes borders on controversial, but the truly hilarious observations keep the movie squarely in smartly satirical territory.(Five 30-minute eps) Expand

No. But I literally cannot remember the last time I laughed so hard. We're talking full-on hysterics: tears streaming, violent hiccups, falling to the floor and wailing, with no time to catch your breath because it just. keeps. coming. The timing, the delivery, the LOOKS on the actual experts' faces; every second brings a new wave of laughter. I definitely suggest watching it in a group, where watching each others' reactions just adds to the show. Expand

Almost every line made me chuckle, and I've already seen tons of clips on TikTok. Loved it!

This show was very fun to watch. The questions were meant to annoy the people being interviewed. Overall a great show and very entertaining.

This show gives breath into an almost dead genre. The mockumentary. Similar to Nathan For You, The Office and P&R, it has that mild humor that makes you laugh on the first watch, but makes you laugh harder on multiple watches. Please don'tThis show gives breath into an almost dead genre. The mockumentary. Similar to Nathan For You, The Office and P&R, it has that mild humor that makes you laugh on the first watch, but makes you laugh harder on multiple watches. Please don't let this show die. We need more praise for this show to reach Netflix and it's hideously large and boring archive of mediocre spin-off shows, sitcoms with laugh-tracks, and uninspired films + film sequels. Expand

Best comedy since, well I can’t think of a lot of funny comedies that are by the same mediocre men that the US tend to push out onto screens. This is unique and oddly introspective.
