What about mrs browns boys
allo allo?
How Red Dwarf and the IT crowd got in over the inbetweeners, one foot in the grave and come fly with me is beyond me
What about Shameless?
Good list but i would have Porridge,One foot in the grave,Dads Army,Steptoe and son , The vicar Of Dibley and The Good life
Where was Absolutely Fabulous?
ofah is the best one of all time in my opinion
Phoenix Nights?
no mention of Absolutely fabulous…but I am glad to see Red dwarf
You missed Absolutely Fabulous
only fools should be first..
Australian tv gets all the UK comedies . Some are so funny it makes your eyes water , some not so much . The first and second are a given . Python and Farty Towels are classics that never get old . There are two glaring omissions on this list , Yes Minister and Absolutely Fabulous . My wife was dismayed that her favorite Hello Hello isn't here either . The poms do comedy better than anyone , maybe this list should be top 50 .
Ummm… Excuse me, where is Bottom?
What about "The Good Life" with Richard Briers & Felicity Kendall ?
No AbFab??…. Well then, you can just fuck right off sweetie darling. Cheers.
Really ?? Little Britain Really ??
Where the FUCK is The Inbetweeners, you bus wankers?!
"I thought it said an idiot needs to use it"
"Yeees thats right, RODNEY!
Only honourable mentions for Spaced & Inbetweeners? Mojo dun screwed up!!
Only fools and horses for me! RODNEY!!!
I find it interesting how there are so many people screaming about how stupid the Americans are for this list when WatchMojo is Canadian (They're even based in Quebec AKA French Canada) and the lists are voted on by the internet, which, as far as I remember, is available in the UK.
Gavin and Stacey?
Where the fuck is Mrs Browns boys??
what about Mrs Browns Boys?
You put the office above only fools and horses,father Ted and red dwarf ?
YOU BASTARDS
Where is Benidorm?
The thick of It??
How in the HELL do you put The Office, a lousy 2 season show, ahead of all time GREATS such as Only Fools and Horses, and Red Dwarf?! This countdown is about as accurate as you are English! Pure bollocks!!
Maybe you should have asked a Brit to make the list. British comedy has a long history of which Americans have barely scratched the surface.
You could start with Perry/Croft/Lloyd comedies who made Are you being served, which isn't their best, I would place Dad's Army and 'Allo 'Allo above your pick. But they also made Hi De Hi and It ain't half hot mum.
Absolutely Fabulous, Yes Prime/Minister should definitely have made the list then there are others that could have, Some mothers do 'ave 'em, Steptoe and Son, Open all hours, The good life, To the manor born.
And seeing as you included the Flying circus skit show there's, Benny Hill, The two Ronnies, Alas Smith and Jones, French and Saunders and Not the 9 o'clock News.
Now I've barely scratched the surface because these are my picks but others could enlarge the list considerably.
The Royle Family and Phoenix Nights should have made this list
ONLY FOOLS AND HORSES SHOULD BE NUMBER 1 WHAT DO YOU AMERICANS KNOW ABOUT COMEDY HUH
Peep Show is bizarrely underrated. It's both contemporary and funny, and prolific. It is one of the best British sitcoms from the post 90's era.
The IT crowd should have been at the top.
