I'm full of cold and want to lie under a blanket watching something that makes me laugh. Help me please.

Loved League of Gentlemen, Physcoville, Hunderby, Mandy etc. Don't mind dark but must make me laugh.

TIA.

I have just bought Getting On with jo brand to rewatch

Curb your Enthusiasm. Larry’s dedication to the petty, plus the slow burning jokes over the series are perfect.

I love the IT Crowd!

Alma's not normal

Thecurliestwurly · 20/10/2021 21:49

Alma's Not Normal on iPlayer. It's a new show and very funny with some dark themes.

Thecurliestwurly · 20/10/2021 21:52

If you're feeling shit, Detectorists or Gone Fishing is great too if you want something a bit lighter and less dark. The second one is just Bob Mortimer and Paul Whitehouse fishing with banter, but it's very funny in places and a warm, relaxing watch. They make me smile when the rest of the world looks very bleak.

AtomHeartMotherOfGod · 20/10/2021 22:12

I have and love these box sets:

Phoenix Nights
Spaced
The Day Today
Look Around You (series 1 - very important 😆)

Big Train Series 1 was also very funny, if I remember rightly. Friday Night Dinner for sure.

Bbq1 · 20/10/2021 22:14

Definitely Brooklyn 99, The Big Bang Theory, Community and our current favourite, Superstore. All laugh out loud funny and so clever. All on Netflix.

AtomHeartMotherOfGod · 20/10/2021 22:16

Available on catch-up probably - it's controversial but I absolutely pissed myself watching Cunk on Britain.

Some people hated it though.
