User Reviews

Very funny short

This is a very funny television pilot for a show that goes from city to city sending up what people talk about on their cell phones. The humor is dry, very British, and well-executed. A great idea for a TV show which is fully scripted and is in a different location each week looking at the different customs around the world with cell phone usage. One week they are in Los Angeles, which is what this episode is about, then the next week the ensemble cast travels to Bankok or London and they do what people are doing in that city. The music is quite interesting as well, it seems to be good transitions between the the short scenes which could be a little bit faster as at times the pace seems a bit slow.
