This sitcom may not be British, but its influence on the current comedy scene and consistently high quality cannot be overestimated. Starring Tina Fey (from those Sarah Palin impressions) and Alec Baldwin, the show is set behind-the-scenes at a live NBC sketch show. After the first two seasons were booted around and ill-treated by Five, season three kicks off on digital station Comedy Central for its UK-premiere run.
