I'd never heard of the Friday Night Project before I came across these clips from the British show, which looks to be a far superior version of Saturday Night Live. It's only two guys (versus SNL's hordes), but they do skits, spoof the news and make all sorts of very funny double entendres. Naturally, with John Barrowman on the show, much of the humor is gay, but unlike SNL (at least the last time I watched) the humor isn't at our expense, and we're in on the jokes. Here is a pic of John in drag which, thankfully, only happened once.

One of my favorite bits is when John (star of the BBC America series Torchwood) explains whether he would rather sleep with a man, a woman or E.T. Let's just say his answer isn't entirely safe for work. Actually, much of the show isn't safe for work, but it's worth watching if you know the boss isn't around! John also talks about snogging Cher, an audience member asks if he's ever "done it with a woman", and another dares him to show "his bum." How come the Brits get to have so much more fun than we do?

(BTW, there is a fifth clip over on YouTube that is the final segment of the show.)
