Partly inspired by the 100 best ever greatest top ten in the world, no, universe that was on recently

What are your favourites? (also including sketch shows if desired)

I'll say, Father Ted, Black Books and Pete and Dud/Derek and Clive. Filth.

(edit)
for anyone interested here's a streamed versio of all 3 derek and clive records: http://www.backpacknuke.com/derek.and.clive/

Spaced was amazing.

Spaced by a mile.

I've just been watching Spaced again on DVD, partly why I asked. It's brilliant, so many hidden/cross references.

Another for Robins Nest here.

Spaced was middling at best IMO.

Faves would include Fawlty Towers, Father Ted and numerous US ones (Frasier, Cheers, Mad About You, Seinfeld, Simpsons, Futurama).

The man who did the washing up had one arm! When you think about it, it's ridiculous.

Married.. with Children
Scrubs
Fawlty Towers
Kenny Everett Television Show

and I thought a couple of series' of Men Behaving Badly were funny

I was once recommended a man who only had one arm to repair some body work damage on a car, apparently he was the best in the area. (one arm Dave was is nickname ...)

I'd vote for father ted - but it was shame it ended so suddenly as it had so much more potential to give after the last series.

One of my alltime favourites is M*A*S*H. Such a classic. Guess I generally like the older ones, but WKRP, Taxi, all good. Seinfeld of course. A recent one that's turning out to be very funny is Corner Gas (a Canadian show that my parents have kindly bought the DVDs for).

Lauging is good
