Zucker , Abrahams & Zucker have given us some of the funniest moments in comedy ever .
Police Squad should have been given more than just 6 episodes.

I can't believe nobody has mentioned any of my top 3,

3.The Fast Show

2.Extra,s

1.(by a country mile) Alan Partridge

1. Blackadder
2. Fawlty Towers
3. Open All Hours
4. Porridge
5. Yes Minister/Prime Minister

I don't seem to watch much comedy nowadays.

I saw loads last season!

There have been precious little good quality sitcoms in recent years. The Beeb tend to go for those God awful safe family friendly comedies usually starring Caroline Quentin or Will Mellor.

The 1970s were the golden age of sitcoms, ironically when there were only three channels. You had Richard Beckinsale filming series of Porridge and Rising Damp pretty much back to back.

In no particular order (ooh, I sound like Dermot O'leary!)

I also used to love Last of the Summer Wine when I was a kid, couldn't stand it as an adult.

There's probably others I've missed off, but I think these are some of my favourites.

It Aint Half Hot Mum.



I liked 'The Good Life'. Penelope Keith was excellent.

And this bunch had me p!ssing on a Friday teatime after school.

A lot of comedy is dated and you can ruin good memorys if you watch it now , shows such as red dward, new statesman, harry enfield need be kept a good memory

The two ronnies was another classic

Late on a Friday evening if memory serves.

Here is something that i couldn't help but laugh at particularly Turner's try

It's the Canadian commentary from our win at Saints this year, sorry if you've already seen it but its worth another look

Trailor park boys and operation good guys aswell

Early Doors - Excellent writing
Only Fools
Phoenix Nights
Titty Bang Bang - obscure BBC3 series
Also Gavin & Stacey which is pretty funny

Brilliant,used to watch this with my daughter when she was a kid.

I'd agree with that to some extent.
Saw an episode earlier this year and it was dated, although Basil was still mental.

Anyway a rerun of the series tonight on BBC2, 7pm.

league of gentlemen

[iStill Game[/i from BBC Scotland was very good.

Don't think it aired very much south of the border.
