Haha, well i like him.
Lead Baloon is a bit ironic title, as the sitcom jokes go down like a well...

I saw it once and thought the samething. He wanted to call it shit sandwich apparently, I guess a tap reference may have improved it slightly!

# Reminds me of a sitcom I tried to pitch to the beeb a few years ago.
It was kind of a bitter comic series starring Bernard Bresslaw (RIP) as a self-centred comedy writer trying to cope with life's day-to-day problems.
The bastads still haven't called back.

# ^this
It's absolutely fantastic, and it really threw me as it is so intrinsically unamerican in its humour.

# ^this
It's like someone in the US actually got our warped sense of humour and 'had a go'. It worked. Brilliant

# No.
Americans can have warped senses of humour without it being a copy of anything British.

# that being said, there are so many british elements
Mitchell Hurwitz, the creator, has said he's been influenced a lot
by some of the anarchic Brit humour in writing it

Last week's episode of Lead Balloon totally ripped off a scene from Extras. The main character is sharing a dressing-room with a has-been comedian and is embarrassed when he's trying to talk to him and sees him in some state of undress. Not even a homage, a rip off
