Whats your favourit?

Currently I am watching 'The Fast Show' which I missed all those years ago (shame on me). Its really funny, but some of jokes are a little out of date.

All time favourits:

Spaced
The League of Gentlemen
Randall and Hopkirk (not the sh!te remake)
Goodness Gracious Me
Smack the poney
Bremner Bird & Fortune

I adored Green Wing. I was quite upset to read that a third series wasn't planned seeing as they left it on a huge cliffhanger again, but apparently a christmas special was filmed, so I shall eagerly await that.

Other than that,

-Have I got News for You
-Never Mind the Buzzcocks
-Goodness Gracious Me
-The Smell of Reeves and Mortimer
-Shooting Stars
-Spaced (Wish I'd seen more of that)
-Scrubs

I know not all of those are actual comedy series or sketch shows, but hey.

The Fast Show
Father Ted
Red Dwarf (but not series 8)
My Family (when Kris Marshall is in it)
Two Pints of Lager and...

The ones I see are quite old and get broadcast on public television.

Are You Being Served?
Monty Python's Flying Circus
Red Dwarf (seasons 1-3)
The Young Ones

Flowery Twats ... I mean Fawlty Towers
The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin
Monty Python
Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy
Doctor Who (childrens show, but it's pretty funny for adults -- some of the humor is unintentional).

Not that much english comedy around here, but:

Even synchronised Fawlty Towers is funny as hell. And Coupling is the single best series coming from Britain in the last 10 years.


Scrubs is an US-series, isn't it?

We get a somewhat limited selection over here but my favourites would be Monty Python, Fawlty Towers and Allo Allo.

My faves are:

-Bottom
-The Young Ones
-Blackadder
-The Life of Brian (Monty Python)

I also like:

-Red Dwarf
-The Holy Grail (Monty Python)
-Father Ted

Two words: Eddie Izzard.

The League of Gentlemen
Alan Partridge
Only Fools and Horses
Early Doors
Peep Show

Piss funny and totally British

The Two Ronnies
Open All Hours
Terry and June
Red Dwarf
The Young Ones
Blackadder
Fawlty Tower
The Kumars at no. 42

Ah, yes, Scrubs IS American. Forgot it was British only.

Spaced is great. It's a shame there's so few episodes overall.

Blackadder
Red Dwarf
Spaced
Black Books
My Family
The Young Ones

Eddie Izzard
Bill Bailey
Ricky Gervais (somewhat)
Steve Coogan

The list is endless, I've left lots out.

Ah, Black Books :) One of the most underrated shows on TV.

Bill Bailey is hilarious.

If you like Bill Bailey get his stand-up show 'Part Troll' on DVD mate, it's absolutely piss funny. Quality stuff.

Greenwing
Peep Show
Phoenix Nights
Only Fools and Horses

Also Saxondale looks good although ive only seen the first episode and was impressed, can anyone tell me what happend in the 2nd as i missed it. And im gutted there are no plans for a 3rd series of Green Wing :( .

In no particular order...

Spaced
Blackadder (especially III)
Father Ted
Fawlty Towers
Red Dwarf
Spitting Image
Have I Got News For You
Whose Line Is It Anyway? (the original!)

That's quite a lot, but I love comedy. It's the only TV I watch other than sport, basically.

We can tell that Drathir Darthirii likes The Young Ones because his location is the address that Rik claims to have after queuing up for ages at the Post Office. Classic.

Sorry. Noticed your cool location, but not your gender! It's no wonder my grant is so small.

Look Around You, which I've recently discovered, is comedic genius.

Blackadder, Father Ted, The young ones

Also Little Britain, though I am not sure if that is actually made by british folk or a few guys from another nationality taking the piss out of the pommies.

No that is made by 2 English fellas. Bloody hilarious an all.

Sorry. Noticed your cool location, but not your gender! It's no wonder my grant is so small.LOL I love that "It's no wonder my grant is so small!" :lol: No need to apologise. :D

Oooh yes, I forgot about Little Britain. Loved it at first, but it's dragging on a bit now, I think. I've also recently started watching the Catherine Tate show - it's pretty good, but some of the sketches just aren't funny, they're annoying. Mostly good stuff in there, though. Ooh,, and the Monty Python one, I can't remember what it's called but it's a sketch movie and it has Mr Creosote and the Catholic family and stuff in it...

"I'm the only gay in the village"
"yeah but no, but yeah, but"
"I don't like it"
"blaaggghhhhhhhhhhh"

There I have just saved you half an hour of Little Britian :D

I used to think it was funny at first, but its the same jokes series after series. Though I admit it would be very funny to see a sketch of N.I life (they have already covered Scottish and Welsh).

it's a sketch movie and it has Mr Creosote and the Catholic family and stuff in it...It's The Meaning of Life.

And you know have me humming to tune to "Every Sperm is Sacred...", dagnammit! :smash: :pope:

Most of what I like has already been mentioned (RD, MPFC, AYBS?, WLIIA?, T2R) but here's an old one that I think wistfully of:
Bless Me, Father

Spaced
Coupling
2 pints of lager
My Family
The royle family
Father Ted
Still Game (Funniest of All)
Chewin the fat

Monty Python - Just about anything they did
Red Dwarf
Whose Line Is It Anyway?
Eddie Izzard
