Also Red Dwarf but that was more popular.

We started Animal Kingdom on Prime tonight - only one episode in, the pilot (which are generally something you have to look past!) and I am hooked already.

Check it out it you like SoA etc.

I am going to rewatch the whole thing in the summer holidays when I am done with Uni.

Happy Valley, I’m still pissed off that they didn’t make season 3 when the writer said that it would ‘definitely happen’Sad.

Line of Duty

Arrested Development (except the final series/reboot)

I am the world’s biggest AD fan, I couldn’t get through the 4th season - tried 3 times. Then they rereleased it as the chronological version and I’ve watched it multiple times now. It’s actually genius, I just don’t think the previous format worked - some of the storylines just aren’t as strong (hello, Tobias) and so his episodes aren’t great.

I still think S2 of AD is the finest season of comedy ever made. I’ve seen it at least 20 times and still find new things occasionally! Such amazing writing.

The Bridge or Line of Duty. GOT a close third.

Spaced and Phoenix Nights I’m happy to watch over again, without any loss of charm or hilarity 😁

I am the world’s biggest AD fan.

No contest, the greatest comedy ever made. It's so clever, and I still find new jokes even now, on my thirtieth rewatch.
