same here :D

have to add Trailer Park Boys

1) The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin

2) Only Fools

3) Blackadder

With Red Dwarf and Fawlty Towers bubbling under.

British humour gets my vote.

I still crack up watching the Fawlty Towers re-runs.

Mr Bean, Some mothers do have 'em, 'Allo 'Allo, Hancocks half hour...just to name a few.

Unfortunately, all of them are re-runs. :o

Tough one this, all those already mentioned are up there!

The Office

Father Ted

Fall and rise...

However, so many more could be included. One thing I can say, I am not a fan of American comedy although a few are mildly amusing...

Ok .. some non-UK shows for some balance (although Young Ones has to be my all time fave comedy).

Seinfield ( George Costanza is the best neurotic comic character ever).

Frontline (Australian newsroom mockumentary series).

Sopranos (not a comedy but a lot of black dry humor & witty dialogue).

Can't disagree with any of the above, but the one currently showing that cracks me up is "Coupling".

Blackadder is hard to beat - especially the last series in the First World War.

As a young lad....I have fond memories of:

1. Bless This House

2. Citizen Smith

3. It 'aint Half Hot Mum...tying for 3rd place with On The Buses

Classics. Bring a smile to my face everytime. I can remember the theme tunes clearly.

I can watch reruns over and over again...although I think these 4 are so old, TV bosses have forgotten about them.

You could have just given us the link !! :o

totster :D

Then you would have nothing to whinge about?

Most of the pub customers in Pattaya remind me of the actors from Dads Army..... :o

Such a tough question. Too many answers to simplify, so . . .

Best contemporary UK shows: Royle Family, The Office,

Best of last 20 years: Only Fools and Horses

Best from my childhood: Dads Army, On the Buses, Love thy Neighbour

Best US comedy: Seinfeld, The Simpsons, Taxi

Looking through this list, it occurs to me that these are all sad shows . .the contexts are all kinda depressing. And that's what makes them funny.

Oh oh oh . my all time favourite. Laurel and Hardy.

most of you pommies have forgotten "Open all hours" how could you miss out Ronnie Barker.

How about "Morcombe and Wise" as well.

mmmm ..... Mrs Slocomb's pussy ...............

Ali G (brilliant!)

Family Guy (wickedly funny)

(above are shown in America)

I'll take The Three Stooges anyday.
:o

I like British and American comedy equally, but British shows are hard to find around here.

I've been watching a lot of Frazier - the spin off from Cheers - which is a lot better than I had realized. :D

Love:

- The Phil Silvers Show (Amy one). Brilliant!

- Porridge (ten times better than Open all hours IMO)

- Laurel and Hardy - still funny now!!!

- My Hero (young priest from Father Ted plays a thick super hero)

- Bewitched (Classic and I love it)

- The young ones

- Taxi

- Spitting Image (If only they brought that back)

Use to find 'I dream of Genie' funny too - but infuriating that JR always went looking for love outside when he had the gorgious babe homouring his every whim!

M*a*s*h - Klinger is a classic

Kath and Kim - "oh yeah....and you're all a pack of chunts" is my fave all time line.

The Office - i think i have worked there before. that gareth is horrid.

'Allo 'Allo

It ain't 'arf hot mum

Dads Army

Are you being served

Robins nest

Three up,two down

George & Mildred

Oh God they keep on coming

Only F&H

Mash

I have found that British humor doesn't cross over well to USA viewers. The 3 stooges rock there Buh' Wheat

1. bottom/young ones (I'll count them as one!! :D Ade Ed & Rik Mayall are comedy heroes IMO :D )

2. the office

3. ali g

would count as 3 full series favourite's....

....but - although the majority of the series is pretty lame - the Craig David sketch in Bo Selecta absolutely destroys me!!! :o

The Office

Little Britain

Bo Selecta

Shooting Stars

Vic Reeves Big Night Out
