mine would be

phoenix nights
the league of gentlemen
creature comforts (the little shorts done by the wallace and gromit team)
spaced
max and paddy's road to nowhere

I didnt like Max and Paddy first time around, but i have watched them again and they are considerably funnier the second time around.

also i tried to post a poll, but the poll function must be broken.

Spaced, urgh, love it.

1- little britian
2- the smoking room
3- gimme gimme gimme
4- father ted
5- fawlty towers

and possible red dwarf

and how could i forget early doors...and did anyone ever watch the strangerers on sky one?

Never saw the Strangerers what was it about?

I loved Vic and Bob in Catterick, so underrated, anyone else like it?

as for v n b in catterick...i loved the american detective character...he was classic

I liked the Matt Lucas Character, unbelievably creepy.

i love little britain , fawlty towers and the office

gotta add the new comedy "swinging" to the list...the show is pure genius like the sex education teacher who says that to avoid pregnancy the lady must swallow a condom with water an hour before sex...

Not seen Swinging yet, will check it out.

Whats it about?

its a "mockumentary" style similar to "the day today" and "look around you"

but its about different aspects of sex and fantasies...its pretty bizzare but hilarious

American -

HOUSE M.D.
Prison Break
LOST
American Dad

Peep Show is excellent.

But the Mighty Boosh is better. Nighty Night is pretty good too.

I dont like Broken News, very weak,

There are rumours of a third series of Pheonix Nights
