At my eikaiwa class, I must make preparation for talk on "what is evil?" It is quite dark subject I think but I have some problem understading nuance.

Last night I saw some comedy program called Little Britain. I think it was comedy, but I didn't find funny at all I did not laugh one time. Maybe it is translation thing. Is it popular program?
