    1. Spaced
    2. Family Guy
    3. League of Gentlemen
    4. Trigger Happy TV
    5. Simpsons

    Very hard to choose though, Futurma, Banzai and stuff like that are all classic - and then Steve Coogan's returning to TV next year smile.gif

    No real order

    1. Futurama
    2. Seinfeld
    3. Judge Judy (although I appear to be in the minority of people who find it funny)
    4. Red Dwarf (all time kick ass comedy)
    5.

    Actually basically anything with Rik Mayall or Chris Barrie.

    2. Married with children
    3. M*A*S*H (the jokes are a little obvious but just has a charm i love)

    Whos line is it anyway is a scetch program which is a bunch of guys given a scetch to act out and they have to make it up there and then (supposedly but it looks rehersed) and is absolutely excellent. biggrin.gif

    The League of Gentlemen is a dark comedy set in a town called Royston Vassey. Theres jokes about recurring jokes about Inbreeding, Cannibalism, Transexual Cab Drivers, Obsessive Families, Has Been / Never Had Been Rockstars . Loads of other things. Very nasty and stupid characters.

    I didn't like it much to start with but I love it now. My fav is Pauline the person who "helps" the Dolescum to get jobs.

    Have a look at this fan site:
