The Hills, The OC, and Downtown Abbey. Vomit every one and the girl loves them all.

Downton Abbey is another weird one that's massive in the States, and i don't know why. I dunno anybody who watches it here.

That spin off of Friends featuring Matt Le Blanc was pretty crap.

I'm amazed how big Sherlock is in the States as well. Big enough that they have made a rip off called Elementary.
 
Not sure who mentioned it, but think it was on here. Ren and Stimpy showing again on 4Music. Not a sitcom, but had to serieslink it to see if it was as good as I used to think it was. Was usually high or drunk, or both, when I watched it though.
 
Sure its like Friends. I expanded it to fit what I felt like talking about. At least I didnt go off on a name change tangent.

I would like to think that this thread is name change/ tangent/ argument proof but from experience I wouldn't like to make such a bold claim.

It could happen.....
 
You lot are mad. Little Britain was hilarious as is Mrs Browns Boys. When someone starts the best of, just put Police Squad at no.1
 
Good:
Black Adder, Farder Ted, The IT Crowd, Black Books, The Thick of It, Steptoe and Son, It Aint Alf Hot Mum, Fawlty Towers.

Dross:
Butterflies, Are You Being Served?, The Vicar of Dibley,
 
I quite like that, to be fair.

Another few, American Dad, Family Guy, Scrubs.

Virtually all of the animated shows, though if you count The Simpsons, only look at the mid-90s stuff...

Nope!

Brooklyn 99 is pretty funny but you all probably dont have that over there.

It's just started here. It's actually quite funny.
 
Worst sitcom ever?

Anything with children in it trying to act, improvise or be cutsie. Adult only comedy please.

Anything were a woman is really a man dressed up. Including anything supposedly traditional and pantamimy.

Anything regional. ****ty accents and even ****tier stereotypes.

Anything American. Don't try to tell me that just because the scripts are written by a team of 300 Harvard graduates that it must be witty, pretty and sooooooo perceptive.

Anything on ITV.

Anything were the actors have long hair and wear loose fitting shirts.

Anything with a stereotypical camp or gay character.

Anything set in the future or the past.



Which leaves Bottom as the only sitcom of any value, ever made ever.







I don't laugh much.
 
I'd say all of them are class bar non-90s Simpsons, Cleveland Show, Beavis and Butthead and King Of The Hill.


Futurama is my personal fave.

I never understood why Futurama - and indeed King of the Hill - never really took off here. Both quite excellent.

Good:
Black Adder, Farder Ted, The IT Crowd, Black Books, The Thick of It,

I forgot The Thick of It. That should've defo made my top 5 on the Trigger thread that inspired this one.

<laugh>

It's brilliant, but it's not even the best thing with Mayall and Edmonson in it...
 
Everything else Nicholas Lyndhurst has been in other than OFAH has been utter dogshit. That time travel thing was poor.
One Foot in the Grave isn't worthy of it's 'classic' status.

I'm more likely to laugh at the death of a close family member than I am at Citizen Khan, I was gobsmacked when it got another series.
 
Dr. Who It has to be a British thing because I can not stand it nor do I know anyone who can.

I watched the 10pm news the other night, and it didn't make me laugh once. RUBBISH!

And as for that Springwatch...
