There's something about the way Brits do TV that can be as refreshing as a spot of tea. Perhaps it's the wacky sense of humor, or the even-shorter-than-cable seasons that leave little room for filler. Here are five of my favorites from the U.K., including several recent additions to Hulu Plus.

Coupling

Written by Steven Moffat (later of Doctor Who and Sherlock fame) as a semi-autobiographical account of his own relationshop, Coupling (2000-2004) is a nearly perfect sitcom that stands up to multiple viewings. (My wife and I have watched the whole series through at least twice, after I'd already watched it once before we'd met.)

It centers around a group of six mostly friends with overlapping relationships, both past and present. Sort of like Friends but, you know, actually funny. There's the dumb-but-well-endowed Patrick, the reality-challenged Jane, Susan with her "affinity" for Australians, the master of foot-in-mouth disease Jeff, and so on.
