Still a bit weird to me that she's so popular outside of the UK.

Not all British comedy translates across borders, but she's absolutely hilarious.

I will admit I was hesitant to even start watching Cunk on Earth because I wasn't in the mood for British, but boy was I glad I did.

How? She's absolutely hilarious!

I just "found" her yesterday thanks to some mention of her here and then I happened to see a video of hers show up on YouTube.

Y'all can't hide. We're out there on YouTube watching old episodes of screenwipe. We're coming for your panel shows. There's nothing you can do about it.

She's the type of British that North Americans like. North Americans appreciate the witty British wordplay, but can't stand the "righto, cheerio, pip pip, beans on toast" business.
