Favourite Comedy/Sitcom

Thinly veiled the big bang theory is too intelligent for me.

Can we count Shameless as a comedy? Cracking episode on last night where Mandy dies the funeral is quality

I just don’t find it amusing. To be honest, I find very little of the recent brand of UK comedies to be entertaining. Coupling was the last British comedy I really enjoyed I think.

What about the inbetweeners thats a cracking show

myboyblue · September 22, 2009, 11:23am

Did I not say we should not discuss comedy any further?

[quote=“kafka”]dwights fire drill is one the funniest scene ever…full stop…think its in series five or near end of series four though so lot of ye may not have seen it yet…
the american office is infinitly better than the english one and up there with the great comedies…[/quote]

There can be no argument with that. Funniest scene I think I’ve ever seen in comedy.

And to follow it up with the first aid scene with Dwight again, pure genius.

Fair City. Surreal comedy genius.

Seinfeld is on everyday during the week on 3E at 2 o clock…Have gotten rightly into it over the past few months and is probably the best comedy I have seen once you get into it…super stuff altogether…5 or 6 moments in every show where you would nearly be in tears with laughter…must get a few boxsets

The_Dunph · October 23, 2009, 1:28pm

Great show alright.

Some of the segments with Newman and Jerry are priceless…

Watched the Inbetweeners last night, quality stuff.

I watched a bit of this last week based on recommendations from here but thought it was ordinary enough I must say.

Something very American Pie about it.

In your face, crude humour instead of my favourite more subtle type.

Watching “how I met your mother” on E4 every night this last month or so. It’s Ledge - wait for it - ndary!

But you think Only Fools and Horses is funny so I’ll take the above with a pinch of salt. :rolleyes:

Oh no, not crude humour!

Prude.

It’s cracking.

Farmer prefers the subtle humour of someone shouting ‘Rodney, you plonker’ and another lad calling Rodney ‘Dave’.
