Spy

If "Chuck" was created by the Brits, it might look a lot like "Spy". Instead of a crazy sci-fi angle, there's a simple mistaken identity. Instead of a 20-something slacker, the lead is a 30ish good-for-nothing divorcee. And the humor is dryer and, at time, darker. If they did try to remake this for US TV, I'd love to see Victor Fresco from Better Off Ted take a crack at it. I've only watched the first two but it's a solid comedy that gets more smiles than outright laughs but it's better than a lot of what is out there. (Admittedly, I might be grading on a curve because it's one of Hulu's first shows of their own and I wasn't expecting much but it's still a solid way to spend 30 minutes or something to watch while on the exercise bike.)

Here's the second episode. Enjoy.
