I remember watching Game On years ago and we were having a clear out the other day and I found the DVD of it so I’ve been watching it. Love it all over again Grin

Yy to What We Do In The Shadows. Funniest thing I’ve watched in ages.

I’m quite enjoying Schitt’s Creek.

Mum was glorious.

Two and a half men, after Charlie Sheen left, I caught an episode by accident and got hooked.

BackforGood

Have you seen 'all about me'? It sounds like it might be the british version. Worth a look if you have not seen it.

lorn195 · 21/07/2019 08:37

Having had a conversation about this yesterday - keeping up appearances and are you being served. Both brilliant still

Teachermaths · 21/07/2019 08:59

The thick of it is currently on iplayer.... Absolutely fantastic.

dementedma · 21/07/2019 09:01

flouncy beat me to it with The High Life. So funny, and rude!
Pif, Paf, Pof.......

Senoritaforever · 21/07/2019 09:04

I’ve been watching Fawlty Towers, The Office and Little Britain. All still funny.

chrislilleyswig · 21/07/2019 15:38

We're watching Friday Night Dinner at the moment

Rediscovered the High Life, forgotten how rude it was. Very, very funny. There's a poster called Piffpaffpoff and I always sing the song when I see her

What we do in the Shadows and Ghosts, I watched on iplayer after reading about them on here. Both very different, but both very funny.

DGRossetti · 21/07/2019 16:20

Man like Mobeen ?

Not just funny and insightful, but (I think) the writing betrays a deep affection for Birmingham that adds a warmth to some pretty heavy subjects. And I say that as an ex-pat Londoner now exiled to Brum.

Which leads into another series set in London:

People Just Do Nothing

Although I used to work in Hounslow, so it was even funnier (and yes, it really is like that ....)

Derry Girls was also fab ...

EscapeTheCastle · 21/07/2019 17:10

Re watching Miranda on the iplayer. Really enjoying it again.

Chocolatedaim · 21/07/2019 17:15

Cheers!
It’s on channel 4 Mon-Friday as I’m eating my breakfast 😊

colourlessgreenidea · 21/07/2019 17:36

Recently rewatched the whole of Nurse Jackie. It’s a work of art, Zoey especially.

GingerRogers84 · 21/07/2019 19:36

I re-watch Father Ted on an almost yearly basis! 😂😍

spiderlight · 21/07/2019 20:06

Mum
Detectorists
This Country

All quite gentle but brilliantly written.

JorahsMistress · 21/07/2019 20:11

Me & dh have recently been watching scrubs and laughing ourselves silly, on season 8 which we count as the final season 😂

Fuzzywuzzyface · 21/07/2019 20:17

I have been watching men behaving badly.. totally puerile and sexist but it is laugh out loud funny. Grin

southernsofties · 21/07/2019 20:19

Re-watching The IT Crowd now DS is old enough to watch it, really enjoying it

DMCWelshcakes · 21/07/2019 20:20

The High Life.

You Rang M'lord?
Oh Doctor Beeching!
Hi-de-hi!

I'm sensing a theme...

Also Derry Girls and Friday Night Dinner.

Geekster1963 · 21/07/2019 23:00
