The Arrested Development star told The Guardian that he enjoys the work of both current and past British comedy writers.
Cross said: "I was heavily influenced by Monty Python. The Office was a revelation.
"Alan Partridge, Saxondale. I love Pulling, Peep Show, Spaced. I love Chris Morris and Armando Iannucci. I could go on."
He added of his own new sitcom pilot The Increasingly Poor Decisions Of Todd Margaret: "It's about an inept American salesman who fortuitously falls into an opportunity to go to London.
"He's in way, way, way over his head. He keeps telling little white lies to help him in the short term but they cause him havoc in the long term."
The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret airs on Friday, November 27 at 10.05pm on Channel 4.
