Terry Gilliam The Wrong Door on the BBC

The BBC has probably committed one of its worse mistakes to date - that being giving Monty Python alumi Terry Gilliam access to the airwaves for an absolutely insane romp reminiscent of Robot Chicken, which he calls "The Wrong Door". And it's ever so wrong. Below is an example of the insanity: envisioning what would happen if your desk-top took one slap too many. There is another very funny clip on the Gimodo blog. You can still see the core genius that drove so many of the Monty Python skits in these shorts.

From the TVSQUAD blog: You know that a series has become a hit in America when British TV starts clamoring for it. But its especially interesting when the stuffy, government-run BBC picks up a show. So, to US fans, the news that Heroes will start airing on BBC Two in 2007 is a bit of a surprise; this seemed like a show that was more suitable for one of the independent channels over there, like ITV.
