For sitcoms that haven't already been mentioned, Plebs and Friday Night Dinner are pretty good. Also the British Parliament. Oh yah, 15 Storeys High.

Monty Python is a total troll upon people who enjoy British sitcoms unironically (hello, Whovians) and don't realize how loving stupid they look to normal folk with functioning brains.

I watched Black books one day when I was sick with a norovirus, and I have to say, it's just the very best.

Father Ted is not a sitcom. It's an accurate portrayal of life in rural Ireland.

Yes Minister and Yes Prime Minister are pretty drat fantastic, and also quite possibly an insight into how politics actually happens

I do, but I cut my teeth on the "bad" series (7-8) so I enjoyed the old ones more.

Green Wing often tries way too hard and veers into severe soap opera territory but the cast is fantastic and the improv is terrific

All the best sitcoms, British or otherwise, have laugh tracks so I don't mind them. The best ones are when they have Screechy Woman or Coughing Fit Man.

You're right they do but I don't think that makes laugh tracks an okay thing, I love league of gentlemen but drat rewatching it now and it's so weird having a dark comedy with an obnoxious laugh track.

Hello my american friends. The correct answer is Yes, Minister and Yes, Prime Minister. Biting political satire that's as relevant today as it was 30+ years ago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HSD1d-6P6qI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gmOvEwtDycs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0ZZJXw4MTA communism bitch fucked around with this message at 14:26 on Nov 17, 2014 |
