The latest episodes feature a faux Briish TV sitcom that is so appalingly bad it is actually funny. It features the catch phrase "Are we havin' a laugh?". The irony is that the show is a commercial successful despite getting panned by critics and everyone in the artistic community. Just thinking about it cracks me up.
