The show was created, written by and starred Noel Fielding, a comedian and actor, who is best known for his work on The Mighty Boosh, Never Mind the Buzzcocks, and his appearances as a team captain on various panel shows.

Luxury Comedy was a surreal and absurdist comedy show that defies all attempts at categorization. At the heart of the show was Fielding's unique brand of humor, which combined physical comedy, surreal imagery, and a childlike sense of wonder. The show was also notable for its use of animation, puppets, and other visual effects to create a fantastical world that was both captivating and bizarre.

Each episode of the show was divided into several segments, each with its own storyline and characters. The show's setting was a luxurious and opulent palace, where Fielding played an eccentric host who was prone to sudden fits of madness and whimsy. Alongside Fielding were his co-stars, Michael Fielding (Noel's brother) and Dolly Wells, who played a variety of characters throughout the show.

One of the most distinctive features of Luxury Comedy was its use of animation and puppetry. The show featured a number of recurring animated characters, such as the Jelly Fox and Fantasy Man, who would interact with live-action actors in peculiar and surreal ways. The show also used puppets to great effect, with characters like New York Cop and Daddy Push featuring prominently in the series.

Beyond its visual style, Luxury Comedy was also notable for its strong musical elements. Fielding, who is an accomplished musician, wrote and performed a number of original songs throughout the series. Many of the show's musical segments were accompanied by elaborate dance routines and visual effects, further enhancing the surreal and otherworldly atmosphere of the show.

While Luxury Comedy was generally well-received by audiences and critics, it was not without its detractors.
