Getting On with Jo Brand and Miranda with Miranda Hart are the best comedy shows on telly.
Why cant we have more comedys by and starring women?

Yep - agree with that.

And getting on is written by the 3 main female leads,

AgentZigzag · 18/11/2010 20:48

I like Miranda Hart in other things, but I can't bring myself to watch a prog that uses the old 'falling into a grave' routine in their advert.

I'm happy (for her) that she's got another series though.

YABU - Mirand Hart is funny but her show is a pile of shite!

ShadeofViolet · 18/11/2010 20:48

Miranda

AgentZigzag · 18/11/2010 20:49

I am really enjoying The Trip just now. Happens to be men.

BootyMum · 18/11/2010 20:58

Yes, like them both a lot but seem to come across them accidently whilst channel surfing.
When are both on - what day and time?

jooseyfruit · 18/11/2010 20:58

when's getting on on ?!
I saw one and haven't caught the others.

pointydog · 18/11/2010 20:58

I'm not mad on miranda.

pink4ever · 18/11/2010 20:59

I love both the shows mentioned. The bit in getting on the other night when jo brand gave her hated old teacher the last bun nearly had me in tears(blub).

ThePinkFlamingo · 18/11/2010 20:59

love the way they just ignore the doctor.

southeastastra · 18/11/2010 21:01

QuickLookBusy · 18/11/2010 21:09
