What British sitcoms you like most

[JP Woody]

American sitcoms are so much better

Whats that based on? How loud American audiences scream and cheer everytime someone walks in a room or delivers a witty put down?

The only thing America does well are animated comedies and Drama's, there attempts at sitcoms are usually wank with the exception of one or two.

Curb Your Enthusiasm and Louie are great. But what else ?

Christ, a really cannet take the opinion of someone who obviously enjoys How I Met Your Mother seriously. That shows an absolute pile of Brad Pitt.

 

[dazamfc]

The Inbetweeners by far.Brill program.Gavin and Stacey is great aswell.GAVALA!!!!!!!!!!!!

not true.

 

[Barney Stinson]

not true.

How is it not true

 

[iota4u]

Only Fools & Horses - higher standard of comedy and a higher standard of acting and timing in the delivery of their lines.

 

[SamScfc]

Most american sitcoms are *****, they make up audience laughter. :S

 

[snooloui]

Americans can't do comedy (apart from a select few), simple fact. All American comedies are based on typical stereotypes, **** jokes and insulting helpless people. Therefore they're not good, they're awful.

wow thats what the show little britain does. Even the british do it too so what your saying is a load of *****

 

[snooloui]

Yes but most British shows don't, whereas ALL American shows do. Plus Little Britain is a sketch show, not a sitcom (idiot).

 

[Barney Stinson]

snooloui you sir are an idiot most Comedies movies and tv shows come out of america. All britain got is Ricky Gervais who is no funny at all

what good English comedy films are there

 

[iota4u]

all britian has got is Ricky Gervais? wow.. i think you need to look at british comedians more mate. He isn't our only comic and he isn't our most famous either.

 

[Mike.]

i said one of the best, not the best. which is borne out by hits hight rating and many awards.

and the thread is on what british sitcoms people like the most. it has nothing to do with american sitcoms. keep it on topic

 

[snooloui]

I never said Britain made good comedy films. Most American comedy films are rubbish though. The only good ones are made by Judd Apatow.
