Comedy is good

[Wills Of Doom]

I was wondering if anyone really likes comedy shows. There's been some great stuff recently - Little Britain, Nighty Night, Darkplace - but I think they still need to prove themselves (more series needed). Can anyone make a top ten? Here's mine:

1) Blackadder
2) The League of Gentlemen
3) Red Dwarf
4) Steptoe and Son
5) The New Statesman
6) The Day Today/Brass Eye
7) The Fall and Rise of Reggie Perrin
8) The Young Ones
9) Father Ted
10) The Office

Ooo tricky one. I'll have a try, although I'll stick with sitcoms only.

1. Blackadder
2. Red Dwarf
3. Only Fools And Horses
4. My Family
5. Yes, (Prime) Minister
6. The Detectives
7. The Good Life
8. All About Me
9. Porridge
10. My Hero

In no particular order;

League of Gentlemen
I'm Alan Partridge
Father Ted
Pheonix Nights
Dad's Army
Only Fools
Blackadder
Open All Hours/Porridge (Hard to choose)
Little Britain

And the best sitcom in the world ever.........SEINFELD!

Bo Selecta aint a sitcom but still worth a mention!

1. Fawlty Towers
2. Monty Python's Flying Circus
3. Porridge
4. Blackadder
5. Yes, (Prime) Minister
6. Bremner, Bird & Fortune
7. Have I Got News For You
8. Red Dwarf
9. 'Allo! 'Allo!
10. Auntie's Bloomers

Hmm. The only show common in every list so far is Blackadder. It is without a doubt a worthy show. My fave quip:

George: The other day, someone shouted out that I have the wit and sophistication of a donkey.

Blackadder: Oh, an absurd suggestion sir.

George: Thanks very much, Blackadder.

Blackadder: Unless of course it was a particularly stupid donkey.
