Look Around You is a British television comedy series devised and written by Robert Popper and Peter Serafinowicz, and, in the first series, narrated by Nigel Lambert. The first series of eight 10-minute shorts was shown in 2002, and the second series of six 30-minute episodes in 2005, both on BBC2.

The first series was broadcast on BBC America in early 2005, with a slightly edited version of the second series airing in March 2006. Starting 18 January 2009, the series was aired on Adult Swim in the US. The first series of Look Around You was nominated for a BAFTA award in 2003.

Although a third series was ruled out, Robert Popper stated that he and Serafinowicz would do another project together, saying:

“Sad news is we are not making a third series of Look Around You, but hope to make a new series of something else silly some time.”

As of 2008, Serafinowicz and Popper were working on a new television series for Adult Swim, as well as a website, based on a spoof religion “Tarvuism”.
