Racy British comedy on "Mongrels"

Animal puppets interact with human actors in this gleefully raunchy comedy about some animals, wild and domestic, living in the backyard (er, I mean, "back garden&quot of a London rowhouse.

It's on Hulu Plus and is not for the easily offended.

Odd that they start with episode 4 first. It was better than I expected. I've been watching a lot of British comedies and old British movies, some are so out there. I find it particularly funny what words get censored and which ones do not. I like that they have closed captioning for us British impaired I just wish Hulu's were in larger type like Netflix.

(because i was in that kind of mood).

It's raunchy and not for the easily offended, and in some parts, requires knowledge of British pop culture, but it's the kind of show that you have to really watch to appreciate the details. There are some funny songs, too.

My one criticism is that while Destiny, the vain and not-to-bright Afghan hound is very dog-like, the cat, Marion, is not cat-like at all.
