Rich Fulcher (Mighty Boosh, Sarah Silverman Program, Jon Benjamin Has A Van) and Matt Berry (IT Crowd, Mighty Boosh, Garth Marenghi) made a sketch comedy show a few years ago that aired only once in the UK and has till now never been easily available to US audiences. All that changed in October with the Region 1 DVD release of SNUFF BOX. The DVD set comes with a bonus soundtrack CD too.

What is SNUFF BOX? It s the legendary BBC series written by and starring Britain s Matt Berry (The IT Crowd, The Mighty Boosh) and American Rich Fulcher (Funny or Die Presents, The Sarah Silverman Program) that only aired once yet instantly achieved entered cult infamy. It s a combination of depraved sitcom about a pair of jovial hangmen and twisted sketch comedy ala Monty Python, filled with bad first dates, time travel, sex, whiskey, awkward moments, random beatings, snappy musical numbers, one very long white hall, rampant swearing and other pleasures. It s the show critics have called one the best kept secrets in the history of British comedy , now on DVD for the first time ever in America!
Here's a sample:
