    The BBC certainly have made good comedies to watch, The Office, Black Adder, Fawlty Towers, Yes Minister/Prime Minister. The Brits have a reputation for self deprocation & slating politicians. There are many places this would be unacceptable. Our, (Brit) comedy is very satirical. I love it!

    Bo selecta! is just completely out there! Not sure about the 3rd series of Little Britain though. I enjoyed Extras.

    I do like the Aussie comedy Kath & Kim. Very original & cleverly written. Family Guy & American Dad are both excellent.

    I'm feelin that one there, pulsar. I love bo selecta especially the craig david, & mel b sketches with patsy kensit - got all the dvds :)

    ~Do you watch a bears' tail?

    Little britain was good, but lost its origionality. It all got a bit samey & OTT.

    The best show this year though - [bold]The worst week of my life[/quote]

    -funny as hell :)

    Over here, we have loads of comedy channels on the sky box, but on my lil' freeview box is a channel called BBC3...

    -Two Pints
    -Nightey Night
    -Monkey Dust
    -Little Britain
    -Man Stroke Woman

    Great shows..

    @ Lethal, yep. the Craig David skits are hilarious. Not seen Bears tail yet. Why does he have such a go at Craig David, not that he doesn't deserve it of course!
    I don't really have a fave show, it all depends on my mood. If push came to shove, it would have to be Futurama. All the rest come a close second.

    I prefer to have a "whose your fave comedy character?" type question. Obviously Bender would have to be my top man, followed by Homer.
