Even though I love America and its wonderful contribution to our arts and literature, the over hyped crap they have dumped on us constantly since about 1980 I can do without. I prefer to struggle along with our partners in Europe even if it means sub-titles as they can also do drama without the gloss finish, car chases and explosions.
some of my favourite shows are from the US Taxi Cheers Frasier Friends Fresh Prince Different strokes Hannibal Sopranos Cosby's Game of thrones Dukes of Hazard Nightrider Baywatch Fallguy Saved by the bell Our lass made me say sex in the city English Only fools Columbo Equaliser Royal family open all hours fawlty towers Inbetweeners Celebrity juice Porridge Dads army Men bahaving badly Allo Allo The Bill Some mothers do av em Steptoe & son Brush Strokes Auf weirdersain pet aint half hot mum i reckon we win like
Columbo is american marra. Jesus you need to watch so more recant comedy mate. you have like two british shows from the last 20 years. No Young ones(earlier yeah), no bottom, no league of gentleman, no I'm alan partridge, no ideal, no spaced, no black books. I'm mortified for you marra.
He should have asked someone intelligent and they could have told him Star Treks creator Gene Roddenberry quite rightly thought the need for Gods invented by some goat herders would have died out, and we were all intelligent atheists in the future. Roddenberry insisted writers didn't add any of this mystical crap in Star Trek.
I didn't think we were talking sit com specifically. Just shows. Have you seen Brass Eye and The Day Today?
