What might the comedy series of the future look like? Hopefully it will resemble the successful BBC sketch show, "The Wrong Door," which puts intricate computer effects entirely at the service of quintessential British humor. In the parallel reality of "The Wrong Door," aliens, super heroes, and dinosaurs interact with regular people as if that was the most natural thing in the world. "The Wrong Door" is hard to describe: a mix of "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" and "The Benny Hill Show" – or maybe rather of "Monty Python" and "Dr. Who?" In any case, in terms of ingenuity and absurd humor, "The Wrong Door" sets a new standard.
