    Only Fools And Horses, Porridge, Fawlty Towers and Blackadder are by far the best written and best acted of all British sit-coms.

    Mrs Browns Boys is utterly appalling drivel.

    The Office is not only the best British sitcom of all time, it's the best British programme of all time.

    IMO, the 2 "sit coms" you have mentioned as being funny means you have no sense of humour!

    Relying on giffs rather than putting forward a reasoned argument will get you far in journalism.

    You'll no doubt just follow a trend on what someone else says, like when you said Breaking Bad was incredible and there's not a single scene wasted and then a few weeks later after a backlash you said it was overrated.

    Apologies, next time I will put a 5000 word article on why I disagree rather than something which showed my exact reaction when I read your post.

    Or, you can bugger off.

    It's rubbish, in my opinion.


    It's gif by the way. One f.

    No. In my opinion, it is ****. I don't have to explain myself.


    If you're going to be an arsecunt, you explain why it is the best British programme of all time.

    Someone doesn't seem to understand when someone is taking the piss.

    A regular occurrence when you are involved.

    Of course. In your own head, maybe, but not in the real world.

    I assume this is some reference to something I've said before? Something you've probably saved on your computer like some sad bastard?

    Oh I took you at face value. How silly of me thinking when you say something you mean it.

    Now run along, there's a bandwagon somewhere you need to latch on to.

    I'd love an example of this. moreso, I'd like you to prove that it isn't my opinion and me just following the crowd.

    Ah, I see you edited something into a previous post.

    Funny that. Because I actually said this about Breaking Bad:

    I notice the phrase 'not one scene wasted' is nowhere to be found in there.

    And by the way, if you knew anything about cinematography, you'd know that 'not one frame wasted' is different. It refers to the camerawork, something I have a lot of knowledge in and appreciation for, not the actual content of the scene itself, which is a main focus n the script, acting, etc..

    Breaking Bad IS overrated. Why? Because people were saying it is the best thing ever. I love it to bits, but I cannot approve of that statement. Is it fantastic? Yes. Is it the greatest? **** no.

    For some reason you seem to think that something cannot be both really good and overrated.

    Also, looking at the two incidents you suggest - they were not 'weeks' apart. One was in November 2014 and the other in June 2015. Which, if anything, suggests this sort of **** has been stuck in your head waaaaay too long.

    In that same time, I had also watched many other tv series and Breaking Bad had fallen down my list. Why? Because I discovered other TV shows which I liked more. You know it is possible to find something you like more than the thing you liked previously?

    I'm not going to bother continuing to derail this thread with your seemingly petty vendetta. I'll let you have the (undoubtedly petty) last word, it's what you want. <ok>
