    How could I forget to include Rising Damp? <doh>

    The only decent comedy ITV ever produced.

    Not really, but let's be honest - they just aren't that funny.

    i watched that yesterday for the first time in years. What the **** has happened to it? It used to be funny but it seems as though the actors even know it isn't funny any more.

    Piss Boring.

    Mind you, most comedys don't seem to stand the test of time. i think Only fools and Horses and Fawlty Towers are the only ones I can think of that are still seem good.

    New comedys - Big Bang Theory and How I Met Your Mother.

    Fawlty Towers was 2 series of perfect comedy masterpieces, there may never be anything as good again, ever.

    Don't think the Royle Family should be in your list, a few that deserve to be are:
    Porridge
    Rising Damp
    Father Ted
    Worst Week Of My Life
    Police Squad
    Drop The Dead Donkey
    Phoenix Nights
    One Foot In The Grave
    The Comic Strip Presents
    Yes Minister

    Had to check my DVD collection but I think those really stand out.
