British comedy series
I'm drinking and watching Bottom.
Anyone else who can appreciate some British comedy? Whatever the type it may be. -Bottom -Young Ones -Father Ted -One Foot In The Grave -Green Wing -...? |

Monty Python first and foremost. My wife watches The Durrells Of Corfu (not sure if that's the proper title) and that's pretty good too.

Not a bad little list there so far.
Misfits. Even though it was set to downhill after the first season, it continued to entertain until the end. I hear people bang on about "Black Books" a lot. If you like Edgar Wright stuff, check out "Spaced" the series which more or less started it all, and I think is just a must for anyone that likes a bit of random quirk in their comedy. Coupling was, at least for a while quite funny. There's one or two people from Green Wing in there too. I enjoyed the first couple of episodes of "Fresh Meat", haven't really watched past it to know. Hale & Pace is kind of...hit and miss, but what they do well, they do really well. A sketch show from a few years back starring mostly young people called "School of Comedy" was great...very unexpected. A slightly more drama-esque, perhaps more suited to a slightly older target audience is "Doc Martin". Not that these are strictly comedy, but watchable with funny parts - Check out the miniseries "Jekyll" and "Skins", both amazing in their own right. Peep Show is also pretty interesting, even though the first series is pretty low budget.

Wow I thought I watched a fair amount of Brit comedies, but I haven't even heard of maybe 97% of what's been listed.
The few I do enjoy: Monty Python (of course) Fawlty Towers Are You Being Served

-The I.T. Crowd
About a bunch of I.T. nerds tucked away in the basement of an office building. -Blackadder Starring Rowan Atkinson as Blackadder, and Tony Robinson as Blackadder's servant, Baldrick. Each series was set in a different historical period. Mostly dry humour and colorful insults. Last edited by Baron Von Marlon; 11-20-2016 at 07:41 PM. |

Damn, I forgot about Black Adder. Time to rewatch the whole series.
After about a hundred episodes of House, it would be nice to see Hugh Laurie be British again. |
