Come fly with me is on par with little Britain! Just NOT funny! I am in disbelief that anyone could find this stupidity funny! The characters are poorly made up and the make up is amateurish! A 10 year old could do a better job! The skits are probably created by a group of stoners because they would be the only ones who would find this garbage funny! All in all this show should NEVER be seen again and I am upset it is taking up valuable television space where a good program could be shown! I can't even stand the commercials promoting the show! If this is English humor then I say please stop making comedy shows!

STAR RATING: ***** Saturday Night **** Friday Night *** Friday Morning ** Sunday Night * Monday Morning A parody of reality shows set at airports, in the form of various sketches involving different exaggerated characters working for the FlyLo airline owned by the enigmatic but buffoonish Omar Baabaa, as well as those on the sidelines including two airport check in girls and other people who work at the airport.On paper, for fans of Little Britain, Come Fly With Me couldn't fail. It's the same concept and set up, and even produced by a company named after that show. And it's an inspired idea to send up programmes like Airport that in the 90s were the pioneers for the reality TV craze that dominates British TV these days. It all should work...but somehow this time it doesn't. The potential is all there, golden and shining as it was in LB, but somehow the laughs fail to generate and the result is just something throw away and tragic. Maybe the formula Walliams and Lucas used when LB first came out earned it a place in the national consciousness (and everyone really did go crazy over it at the time) but in a time with shows such as The Inbetweeners, Benidorm and Peep Show about, it just gets seen as the one joke and slightly irritating set up that it is. They are certainly a lazy double act, and this shows most when the cracks that caused the LB ship to sink soon begin to show here, in the shape of repetitive sketches (the angry husband and wife bothering the black check in girl, Precious the coffee shop worker, the burger bar worker) that rely on catch phrases and repeating the same gag every time.Memories of LB's time at the top may well be all that keep Walliams and Lucas's comedic legacy alive, at a time when maybe the British public wanted to sit back and chuckle at something a bit more undemanding and less high brow. Because for sure, this series about flying fails to take off. **

I'm an American living abroad in China. I found this show and I love it. I love the Mocumentary style. The Voice over ads that perfect touch of seriousness to a wacky way out show. The production level is very good and the two "main" actors are very talented. I may not get all the jokes since it is geared towards the UK audience but this is OK. The Stereotypes are crude and offensive at times, but this is all played out to be just over the top and not taken serious. The two male leads play so many parts. Both male and female. At times it is so funny to see a hulking man play a women. It pays homage to Monty Python. I often wonder how they gained access to the airport they are in. I look forward to the rest of the season.

Does anyone remember the excruciating Dick Emery Show on the TV from way back? Well this badly executed abomination is much,much worse. I have tried it twice (mainly because I could not believe how bad it was the first time) and it has been found wanting each time. it needs a decent and funny script, rather than something written by intellectually challenged sixth form schoolchildren. The performances by the so- called stars are phoned in on a very dodgy line and the only praise it may get is for some of the make up that they employ. To be honest I never liked Little Britain either-it was lazy and crude. I don't mind crude at all but it has to be funny. That is where Walliams and Lucas fall down. They just are not funny-they are much too aware of what they are doing to be real comedians. The best comedians have something undefinable about them. Now I actually quite like David and Matt when I see them on talk shows as themselves, they can be engaging and amusing. As comic characters they always make me feel uncomfortable. A big ZERO to CFWM. Edit 13/01/11 I am sitting watching Come Fly with Me again while waiting for Not Going Out. Christ it is rubbish-can the participants not see how unfunny it is? It has not raised even a smile let alone a laugh. Disgusting waste of licence payers money!
