Ideal is a very strange BBC3 comedy about a smalltime weed dealer called Moz (played by Johnny Vegas) and his friends, who range from mask wearing gangsters to men with tits.
Moz, the main character who deals weed in all series but the newest one, which is currently airing in Britain.

Nikki, Moz' girlfriend for the first four series, who [sp]takes over Moz' weed dealing business[/sp] after he has to [sp]flee the country[/sp] at the end of season 5.

Cartoon Head, the mask wearing gangster I mentioned earlier. A hitman by trade, he never utters a word on screen, and has his mask glued onto his face, making it impossible to remove.

Psycho Paul, originally a rival dealer to Moz, he now works with Cartoon Head. He often bullies Moz into helping them with their various plots.

These are the main characters, though there are many more. They generally occupy minor but unique roles as customers and relations to Moz.
I only tuned into Ideal in series 5, so I don't have any idea of any overarching plot, if there even is one.
People in the UK are able to watch this on BBC3 weekly at a timeslot that I haven't quite worked out yet (I just watch it when I notice it's on) or on the Iplayer.
Edit: Just realised how content lacking this thing is, I'll update it later when I'm not so tired.
This show is a disgrace to our media. I thought we Brits were supposed to have sophisticated comedy.
I love america.
