    Blackadder
    Peep Show

    This was a tough one, have enjoyed so many. Only Fools is also a timeless classic, just re-watched the first series recently, and this came out years before I was born - it just doesn't get old.

    Does anyone remember Operation Good Guys. It was like a "the office" style docu thingy version of The Bill. About twenty years ago. Only one series I think and it died a death. One episode feature David Seaman. I thought it was hysterical.

    Operation Good Guys should have been in my top 5. Been re-watching all 3 series. The Lou "Frisk Em" Ferrino episode in series 1 and the survival weekend in series 2 are absolute classics.

    I havent watched it for a while, time for a revisit I think.....it was an absolute classic. I should have added Peep Show as well....

    I bought the Fawlty Towers box set from that Cex shop in Bexleyheath when I was back a month ago. I've spent a lifetime defending it as one of the funniest comedy shows ever, but this time, I found Nasil irritating and the show dated. Very sad, i'll try it on the children, but so far they don't get it either.
