Oxigen_Waste Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Okay, I've always been a huge fan of your brand of humour, and am quite well versed in it up 'till the late 90's. But could you please point out to me good recent (post 2000) shows? I am aware of (and love) Spaced, Black Books, The Office and Extras, but I want to know about all the rest I might be missing! : peace: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bard Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 (edited) Peeeeeeep Shooooooow. Also, I don't like the office. Ricky Gervais' smarmy cunt face probably has somethign to do with it. Edited December 3, 2010 by The Bard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 The Inbetweeners? Great programme with a film in the making. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bard Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 The Inbetweeners. Yeah. I've only seen a few episodes of this, but it totally succeeds where Skins failed to give an accurate portrayal of the awkwardness of teenage school life.

Diageo Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 There was a program I absolutely loved, called Coupling. Not sure if it's British, I'm pretty sure it is, but I thought it was incredibly funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcj metroid Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 I wouldn't recommend It crowd to be honest. It has it's moments but isn't quite as good as black books or father ted before it I think. But it's enjoyable enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoogleViper Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Peep Show is shit. However I will echo Green Wing, Inbetweeners and surprised ReZ hasn't mentioned How Not to Live Your Life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I was going for absolute "cream of the crop" of the past decade. It is excellent though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mad Monkey Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Also, I don't like the office. Ricky Gervais' smarmy cunt face probably has somethign to do with it. God yes, the american Office was so much better, just because it didn't have Ricky Gervais in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro_Link Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Really!? I could understand thinking that now if you rewatched it, but Ricky Gervais annoyed you back then at the time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He always has, I'm pretty sure that's his whole purpose in life is just to annoy me, the commercial success is just a coincidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Yeah. I've only seen a few episodes of this, but it totally succeeds where Skins failed to give an accurate portrayal of the awkwardness of teenage school life. I agree, I can't relate at all to Skins. I don't know anybody who's like that either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReZourceman Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 My Family. But that may be late 90s, not sure It doesn't matter when it was....this is a "good" British sitcoms thread. :p (Its entertaining enough, but horribly predictable in a bad way) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nekunando Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 There was a program I absolutely loved, called Coupling. Not sure if it's British, I'm pretty sure it is, but I thought it was incredibly funny. I remember Coupling from years ago and I definitely enjoyed it back then! I think one of the funnier people in it was called Geoff but he wasn't in one of the following series (I'm not sure how many there were ) In a way, it reminded me a little of a British Friends due to the three male and three female characters, but it was pretty different! I can remember finiding one episode particularly funny, but I can't think what it was about now Anyway, I'd suggest Peep Show aswell and, though I didn't watch it all that much, I think Green Wing was probably pretty decent aswell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
