OK - as much as I love the Office, Men Behaving Badly and Blackadder, Little Britain gets my vote. It's catchphrases are so memorable. 'But I'm a lady, I do ladies things' for example. Fried gold!

The thread isn't called classic British comedy. Obviously Little Britain hasn't been around enough to be considered a classic, I put it on the list given its current popularity (or so I thought, I appear to be the only one who voted for it!).

As for the abscence of My Hero, Bottom and others, I made the list out of the ones I have watched on a regular basis. Over the last 18 months, I haven't been in the UK long enough to catch a lot of the newer programmes, and I have only seen the odd ep from the other series in the past . I hope that clears things up . Keep the votes coming! I strongly suspect that 'None of the above' will win this poll though ...

Oh come on! American stuff is good, but does not beat British comedy! Compare Will & Grace with Dad's Army (which I now realise I didn't put on the list and I'm embarrassed how I could have left it out) or Blackadder? No? You can't, because there is no comparison...

I like American and British Comedy (I'm British). I don't think either is better than the other. Anyway, Only Fools and Horses wins by a mile IMO.

Friends is the only really good American comedy show I've seen. There's some great writing in the states, but most American comedy makes my brain want to hang itself.
Went for Red Dwarf, it wasn't as well crafted as shows like Fawlty Towers or Blackadder, but when you consider that there were (i think) 9 series plus a planned movie you gotta be impressed with the consistancy of the material...except for the seriese without Chris Barrie, that was a bit duff.

British comedy sucks the fattest cock on the face of the earth. I would have voted for that spot, except Will and Grace and Friends suck just as much cock. God. No place for me to vote.
