    Blackadder - brilliant comedy, as was CYE but CYE was to formulaic. Sorry larry


  • Registered Users Posts: 657 ✭✭✭irishejit


    Blackadder.....the first series was weak but from there it grew into something that all comedies should aspire to be.

    Being able to change the timeline but keep the characters more or less the same through their ancestors was a masterstroke.

    Thank you Darling....

    'Blackadder'.

    Genuinely funny look at historical situations and figures that can be adapted to modern times too and as someone who loves his history that's a boon for me. Also, has to ability to be poignant as well, especially in the Fourth series.

    It's also less smug than 'Curb Your Enthusiasm'. Although I do like that show too.

    Blackadder - it is more original and no comedy has ever made more fun of the name " Bob"


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,427 ✭✭✭✭TheValeyard


    I have a cunning plan


    Vote Blackadder


    Also, it's hilarious especially WW1 and the ending is very well done

    All Eyes On Rafah

    Blackadder demolishes Larry David and co - a 9 - 0 whitewash

    Blackadder. I actually haven't seen that many episodes but any I have seen have made me laugh out loud.

    Curb.. well it's pretty funny and my partner really likes it but the theme tune is the most head wrecking thing in existence. It's in my head now... Nooooo!

    Blackadder gets my vote.

    Think I'll actually watch a bit of blackadder tonight after that demolishing


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    Firefly because it has cowboys in space and is awesome.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 9,078 ✭✭✭IAMAMORON


    Sons of Anarchy - for the cheesey storylines, so bad.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,882 ✭✭✭tusk


    Sons of anarchy .

    There are cringe bits but at it's heart it's a wonderful tale of friendship and family.

    And the songs of anarchy soundtrack is immense


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,926 ✭✭✭Clarabel


    Firefly cause nerds and space and cowboys and ships and awesomeness


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,088 ✭✭✭Krombopulos Michael


    Firefly - Cowboys in space.

    Great concept, Wash was my fave character, witty and sarcastic and it was just a fun show.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,463 ✭✭✭Niska


    Firefly

    It was funny and serious, and actiony and down right shiny. Plus Jewel Staite.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,215 ✭✭✭khalessi


    Ohhh GOD I love both these shows grooooaaannnnnn

    SOA as its Hamlet on motorbikes and has Peggy from Married with Children the young fella from Queer as Folk


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,882 ✭✭✭tusk

    Firefly, to get the message to the authorities that they shouldn't have cancelled it!


  • Registered Users Posts: 974 ✭✭✭Remouad


    Firefly
    Well written with great premise.
    Great cast too.
    Cancelled too soon


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,913 ✭✭✭De Bhál


    SOA - some ball of ****e by the end but had some great stuff in it


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,404 ✭✭✭✭sKeith


    Firefly, each episode is its own masterpiece.


  • Registered Users Posts: 19,277 ✭✭✭✭Tony EH


    'Firefly'.

    There isn't a single duff episode and all the characters are well written and I can't stand Joss Whedon's stuff generally.

    OTOH, you have 'Sons of Anarchy' and that Irish angle which was just awful.


  • Registered Users, Subscribers Posts: 47,305 ✭✭✭✭Zaph


    Firefly. Great fun and some great characters.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 51,461 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Sons of Anarchy cos it's enjoyable.

    Never got into Firefly and tried a number of times.
