So earlier in the summer, David Cross announced he had shot a pilot for UK television network Channel 4 (where Spaced started, for those keeping track at home). The oddly titled project, The Increasingly Poor Decisions Of Todd Margaret was written by and stars David Cross, and up until now, we’d had no idea what the show is about.
Turns out the series is about Todd Margaret (surprise!), a temp played by David Cross, who finds his way into selling energy drinks in the UK. The issue – he has to sell THOUSANDS of drinks in a week.
The pilot episode aired in the UK last week (November 27th, to be exact), and the opening scene, also starring Will Arnett and Spike Jonze, has made it’s way to YouTube, setting up the plot for the series. It is hysterical, and ENTIRELY Not Safe For Work, on naughty language alone.
While the episode in full is on Channel 4′s On Demand website, it’s currently UK only. I now know how the overseas folks feel about Hulu.
Here’s hoping The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret makes it’s way back across the pond.
