I finally watched this (the latest episode with Jesus of Nazareth on a surfboard, and the previous episode with the heavily bearded computer programmer). I don't give a shit if the Post panned this series as stereotypical, I love it.
Yes, it's over the top, but it strikes me that the League of Fabulous Gentlemen are hamming it up a bit, with an acknowledgement that the joke is both on the subject but also on them. They're having enough fun that (I think) you come away not really bothered about it.
I, like Mr. Hand, am impressed at the lengths to which Bravo is going to embrace the gay audience. I tell ya, one Supes decision on sodomy and it's all downhill from there.
