British Comedies

---

In reply to: but as far as I know, Black Adder isn't televised anywhere in the U.S. i've seen Black Adder on some kind of pbs station here in the states

I'm a big fan of the Red Green show, a Canadian program. I think Pat McKenna is one of the funniest people on the planet.I suppose I could get the BBC on my cable, but I'd have to pay extra for it. The only British shows I get to see are on PBS. Mr. Bean was only on a few times (including the animated series, which I didn't care much for), Red Drawf, and Chef. I haven't watched too many of them.

I remember a Thanksgiving episode of Friends where Matt LeBlanc got the turkey stuck on his head and everyone thought it was so funny, when in reality, that wasn't original because Mr. Bean did that big several years earlier.If you haven't had the chance to see all 14 episodes, go get the 3-DVD set. It's definitely worth it!

I know this is off topic, but does anyone here like Dave Chappelle

Well, it is a comedy show, so it is kind of on topic.....well, I've never watched it, but I haven't heard anything but good news about it. It seems funny, I think I'll go to my cousin's and wach it sometime.

Here is a list of my current favsBlack BooksThe OfficeSpacedBig TrainThe Fast ShowNot the nine oclock newsPythonFaulty TowersRed DwarfThe mighty BooshBrass EyeOnly fools and horsesmy familyanything French and SaundersRipping YarnsBeanSketch Showthere's heaps more......

The Mighty Boosh is fabulous. I would forward Brass Eye and The Day Today for making irony an art form.

Black Books!! that rocks!! can't believe I forgot such a qualty show!! so funny

Black Books was just incredibly funny, especially Bill Bailey, the man knows funny.

Question, Wasabi Peas, was "Not the 9 'o Clock News" done by Rowan Atkinson, or is it just me?

Yes, Rowan Atkinson was on that show for a while.

yuhuh!!

Sorry, guys, my Compy's been down for some time, had to go to the library to post this. MY MOM GOT THE ENTIRE SERIES OF MONTY PYTHON ON DVD!!!! ALONG WITH THEIR AUTOBIOGRAPHY!! The Pythons: An Autobiography by The Pythons!!!!! Best time of my life......

i was told by like the 7th or 8th person i should see Mr. Bean. i guess i got to rent it cuz every one is saying watch it. i haven't heard of anything else. other than the cooking show that cusses. that would be funny.U put the Fking chicken in the Fking stove and bloody hell F**ing cook it for about an.........LOL yeah that would be a funny show. that's how diver dude cooks he cusses out all his food. LMAO!!

You should see Mr Bean, CR. :smile:

we talking about the series or the movie?

there is a series? is it the same guy (the one that feel asleep alot in rat race lol)

They occasionally show it on PBS, but I got the whole series on DVD (3 discs) on A&E video for $30\. It's definitely worth it.

The movie kind of sucked. It was too serious and repeated a lot of the same skits that were in the series. See the series for sure.

definately the office.
