British Humor
So....do all Brits actually think it's hillarious when a man runs around in women's underwear? A more generalized question is whether or not all Brits think that the so called "British humor" is all that funny. Here in america most of that style of stuff is , with the exception of stuff like Red Dwarf and Mr. Bean.

Mr Bean is hardly highbrow stuff so if you like a middle aged man obsessed with his teddy then you can't criticise men running around in womens underwear ( which I don't recall seeing very ofter ).

I have no idea what show you'd even be talking about there.

We have our fair share of wank stuff though.

No, but the show that follows the thirty seconds of stand up is comedy gold.

British Humor is great. Granted, I haven't seen a lot of the t.v. shows and whatnot. But I love Monty Python, Eddie Izzard, The Office, and Shaun of the Dead was brilliant.

Pretty much the main stuff that has carried over to here, but I'd love to seek out some other stuff. I hear "Spaced" is pretty good?

Watch Spinal Tap. Watch The Holy Grail. Watch Black Adder (Atkins is better in this than Mr. Bean). Watch Brass Eye. Watch Chef!.

All of those are hilarious.

Only Fools and Horses
Red Dwarf
The Royle Family

The Office
Little Britain
Peter Kays Pheonix Nights

There are so many fantastic British comedies, where as America have

Frasier - One good gag per show
Friends - Was funny in the first series, then got very old - very fast
Sienfeld - WTF was this shit

I think Will and Grace is the only American sitcom I actually enjoy.

Definatly. A fairly cheap (Cheap by British DVD price standards) 3 disc set of the 2 Spaced series and an extra disc full of stuff has just been released. Fantastic for me, who bought the 2 disc set 2 months ago.

Its not hilariously laugh out loud funny, but there are tons of hilarious parodies in there. Lots of making fun of the new Star Wars movies. Plus, theres a character in the series who got kicked out of the terretorial army for trying to invade Paris with a tank.

A lot of the people involved with Shaun Of The Dead were involved with Spaced, hence the reason why Simon Pegg and a few others have starred in both. Simon Pegg was on Xfm a few weeks back and said that a new series of Spaced will come out eventually, but they are planning on working on a new movie, which features a British policeman as an action hero.

Blackadder is gold. I saw a bit of Only Fools and Horses, good times. Fawlty towers is the man.

I'm an Aussie also, and I too believe British humor is far more funny than American humor. No argument.

Also, the Brit version of Whose Line is it Anyway shits all over the American one.
