THE YOUNG ONES FOR FUCK'S SAKE

duhhh

[Shada]

i know peter kay is played out in the uk and americans might not get it, but phoenix nights is a must watch, and why has no one mentioned fawlty towers!?

[Tisswat]

I forgot to mention Grumpy Old Men. Didn't like all the spin-offs like Grumpy Old Women though.

[mis]

I just started watching boosh and i fucking love it.

How did moon and noir go from being in a zoo in season 1 to running a shop for naboo in season 2? they dont seem to explain that

[whizkit]

^doesn't matter! I enjoyed season 2 more than season 1.

Been watching bits of League of Gentlemen on youtube recently. Anyone knows good streamed sources for full episodes?

[pavlova cakesworth]

i prefer season 1 of the boosh to seasons 2 and 3 the way i prefer milkshakes to chemical burns

[mis]

Boosh season 2 episode 1- Best Episode and song ever

[pavlova cakesworth]

no sir. the call of the yeti is a weak link in a typically weak series. the best episode (with the best song) is tundra.

[mis]

You are incorrect. Yeti was insanely funny. Tundra song is good though, I'll give you that.

[thomh]

Eurg.. The Mighty Boosh?!

That's like the lowest of UK comedy..

I'm Alan Partridge, Bottom, The Young Ones, The Office, Father Ted (Irish but I guess it's still sort-of UK comedy since it was broadcast on UK television), Peep Show is great too but the new series is kinda bland.

[Magsåvningsreserven]

/scoffs

best episode is Milky Joe

Isolation = win

[alterion]

Add Father Ted + anything narrated by David Attenburgh to the essential british TV list

[Double D]

No mention of Life on Mars/Ashes to Ashes?

Pretty much the best series' the BBC have commissioned in most of my living memory, but that's admittedly not very difficult.

[Double D]

Also penis upon Boosh, I require another series of Nathan Barley.

I think 95% of the humour in that show would go straight over the head of anyone who isn't familiar with Shoreditch and it's media-hipster populace, however.

[st_]

I really disliked Life on Mars. Nathan Barley is a cracker. Black Books, Father Ted, The Office, Boosh.. I think all the shows I enjoy have been mentioned.

The funniest show on British television would have to be The Bill..! Reg, Tony, June.. classic!

[Magsåvningsreserven]

used to watch The Bill a fair bit until my obscene hatred for ITV grew, i can't stand 90% of the shows on that shitty, shitty channel.

Does anyone remember Los Dos Bros or something? It was only on for one season on C4 and I was absolutely hysterical whenever i watched that, soooo funny.

[thejimbo]

This new show called the smoking room is pretty funny, the guy from peep show is in it. Very dry british humour

[ghostdeini]

Boosh season 2 episode 1- Best Episode and song ever

ranks right up there with Season 3 Episode 1 as the best TMB song.

Eels! Eels! Eels!

[Magsåvningsreserven]

actually i think season 3 ep 3 is the best for 1 reason (apart from gary numan):

The Crimp-off

CSIQ4IJAYfk

also found this gem, one of my faves also, Electro Boy

6bcQRTFwczs

good times

[englandmj7]

Someone gave me the first season of Little Britain. Jesus fucking christ. Worst show I've ever seen in my life. It's goddamn painful to watch.

I was surprised by how much I enjoyed Skins after I forced myself through the first couple episodes. It is pretty much a teen soap except with tits, cursing, drugs and violence, but it's entertaining.

[redshirt]

Little Britain is too retarded for my taste. Too much chav-ness going on.

Someone introduced me to this short lived Chane4 show called sugar rush and it's awsome! Them lesbos are hot!

Too bad we don't get enough british programing where I come from.

[mis]

I really like peep show

[mrip]

killed life on mars and ashes to ashes

ashes to ashes sucked

life on mars was ok

also watched extras which could have been called a drama, not comedy

i laughed once through out both series and the x-mas special

no heroics was good but only 6 eps

[Tea]

If you can find torrents for a series called Garth Marenghi's Darkplace, that shit is pure genius.

[homeboy]

As I haven't had time to follow X factor properly, I tuned in on their website to catch up. Take by complete surprised the episodes on web are no different than watching them on freeview as they contain 4 bloody commercial breaks with no possibility of skipping them.

[Magsåvningsreserven]

this season of The IT Crowd (except the last episode) was excellent.

[NatseOklim]

I liked the last episode actually.

[ollir]

i dunno if its been said but nathan barley and green wing were quite good.

i watched ideal last night forgo how funny it was

[Magsåvningsreserven]

Being Human is so fucking good - possibly the best drama series Britain's produced in recent years, heard a second season's been commissioned so that's good news.

[dopefresh]

i dunno if its been said but nathan barley and green wing were quite good.

i watched ideal last night forgo how funny it was

If you liked Green Wing try Black Books.

Never Mind The Buzzcocks is pretty funny too, be sure to watch the episode with Donny Tourette.
