I just spotted this on Netflix and watched the first episode. From the trailer, it's hard to work out what the format is, but it's actually a handful of separate, and satisfyingly elaborate sketches put together for each episode.
I'm now very looking forward to watching the rest of the series. Episodes are only 15-20 minutes long and, I was enjoying it so much, I was disappointed when it finished and thought...that went quick.
It's very funny, in my opinion, and the actors' talent shines throughout. Worth a try for 15 minutes of your time, I promise.
