Just as the title says. Could be a series or film or stand up.

Ali Wong stand up on Netflix. It's tears in your eyes funny.

30 Rock makes me laugh out loud.

WiserOlder · 04/09/2020 21:28

30 rock is so good!

Taskmaster on UKTV play (I think that's what it's called, used to be on Dave) is hilarious- comedians competing in ridiculous tasks.

Ash Vs Evil Dead is very gory but very funny.

Oh yes Parks & Rec.

SummerSummerSummertime · 04/09/2020 23:06

Ali Wong & Katherine Ryan's stand up shows both male me laugh.

Frasier. Currently rewatching from the beginning. It has not dated and is perhaps even better than I remember. Funny and clever.

wowfudge · 04/09/2020 23:09

I laughed all the way through Peter Kay's Comedy Shuffle on BBC 1 tonight. Pretty sure I've seen it before but he is funny.

SummerSummerSummertime · 04/09/2020 23:10

Gavin & Stacey cracks me up still too.

Titsywoo · 04/09/2020 23:12

Girls Night is very funny!

Bit old school but if you can find it I watched Love, Honour and Obey the other day and it's hilarious Grin

Titsywoo · 04/09/2020 23:13

Oh yes to White Gold as well

TheClitterati · 04/09/2020 23:13

After Life - I've laughed more watching this show than any other.

NeedToKnow101 · 04/09/2020 23:21

@Doyoumind

I've watched and enjoyed, or tried and not got on with a lot of the suggestions but there are a few new ones I'll look into. Thanks for the responses.
Have you tried Sex Education yet?

The baywatch remake with The Rock in. It's been made very tongue in cheek, me and my DP were howling with laughter,

Anything with Will Farrell is usually guaranteed to make us laugh too.

James Acaster on Netflix

Episodes, i thought this show was hilarious!

ChavvySexPond · 04/09/2020 23:49

Ted Lasso!

Gertie75 · 04/09/2020 23:52

Friday Night Dinners.
What we do in the shadows is good too, it's quirky but fun.

BackforGood · 04/09/2020 23:53

I've started re-watching Green Wing recently. Definitely stands the test of time. My (18yr old) dd watched it with me and thought it was really funny too.
