Mighty Mouse Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suegha Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 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... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simmo Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 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).

SamuiRes Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ducati Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bendix Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulysses G. Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 I'll take The Three Stooges anyday. 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolf5370 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 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!

donna Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Duke Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 I have found that British humor doesn't cross over well to USA viewers. The 3 stooges rock there Buh' Wheat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
game4shame Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 1. bottom/young ones (I'll count them as one!! Ade Ed & Rik Mayall are comedy heroes IMO ) 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!!!
