    Best Comedy series of the 00s?

    Further to MK's thread about the state of comedy, I thought it might be good to discuss which comedy show was your favourite from the last decade. Many of the choices speak for themselves; The Office was a critical smash over here and developed the fly-on-wall feel of Ianucci / Morris' early...
  3. Channel 4 - Comedy Showcase

    Anyone been watching channel 4's new series where they pilot some fledgling sitcoms. Best one(s) will get a permanent slot. First up with the semi-awful Campus - fly on the wall situmentry about staff at a university. Then last night they previewed Phone Shop...

    Battle of the Sitcoms - THE FINAL !!!!!!

    Ok ok, i know the second semi hasn't quite finished, but it'd take a cunning plan of Baldrick proportions for that result to change so i'm using poetic licence to kick this off now so i can get some work done :( Well, i think its been fun and extremely well fought, and after 30 matches and 2285...

    Battle of the Sitcoms - Semi Final No 2

    The penultimate match of the competition sees MK Shrimpers' Blackadder up against pubeys' Father Ted 'adder has been the stand out performer so far, has it enough left in the tank to see off, IMO, the incredibly over-rated Father Ted ?? Time will tell ...

    Battle of the Sitcoms - Semi Final No 1

    Oh how i enjoyed that b*stard alarm clock going off at stupid o'clock this morning to remind me that my holiday was over and i have to drag my sorry *** into work :'( :'( After some pretty close QF ties last week i'm expecting a couple of straight forward semis, starting with ... Only Fools...

    Battle of the Sitcoms - Quarter Final Review and Semi-Final Draw

    Only OFAH really cruised through the Quarters, which is just how its supposed to be IMO, with arguably the most popular shows each having their supporters doing their best to see their favoutrites through. The battles between Partridge and Phoenix Nights and MBB and Father Ted were particulally...

    Battle of the Sitcoms - Quarter Final No 4

    We reach the last of the Quarters today with Genial Harry Grout trying to get his lameduck Vicar of Dibley through against one of the most popular shows in tv history, Crickos' Only Fools and Horses ... good luck Al, i think you're gonna need it !!!

    Battle of the Sitcoms - Quarter Final No 3

    Morning all once again, i feel i ought to apologise for the inconsistant timings of the threads this week ... but i'm on holiday and i'm not your slave so you can all feck right off Today SHOULD be a foregone conclusion, but i fear the landslide could be in the other direction :'( In the Red...

    Battle of the Sitcoms - Quarter Final No 2

    Hang onto your hats folks, this is going to be immense Blackadder (MK Shrimper) vs Fawlty Towers (statski77)
  13. BLUEBLOOD

    Battle of the Sitcoms - Quarter Final No 1

    Morning everyone, and welcome to the first Quarter-Final ... just one match a day from now for you to deliberate over, todays is I'm Alan Partridge (seany t) vs Phoenix Nights (Josh C)
  14. BLUEBLOOD

    Battle of the Sitcoms - Quarter Final Draw

    Finally we're about to have the draw for the Quarter Finals ... a day later than promised, and instead of it being from the home of cricket its from the home of BLUEBLOOD ... both venues equally salubrious of course :unsure: BLUEBLOOD Junior will be drawing all the ties, so complaints should be...

    Battle of the Sitcoms - Second Round Review

    Blackadder continues to blaze a trail in this competition with another thumping victory, elsewhere the battles were much closer with only Father Ted and Only Fools and Horses breaking the 70% barrier, that said we didn't have any real nail biters this time around, with The Vicar of Dibleys 6...

    Battle of the Sitcoms - Round Two (Heat 8)

    So we reach the end of the second round .. Father Dead, er.. Ted (Pubey) vs Goodnight Sweetheart (Defiler) Who's gonna grab the last quarter-final slot ??
  17. BLUEBLOOD

    Battle of the Sitcoms - Round Two (Heat 7)

    Definately a case of after the Lords Mayor Show for me today, as we follow Fawlty Towers et al with 2 piles of crap, 1 show i've never seen and an enjoyable, if slightly far fetched, time travelling yarn Phoenix Nights (Josh C) vs The Orifice .. sorry, Office (Fatshrimp) :zzzzz::zzzzz:
  18. BLUEBLOOD

    Battle of the Sitcoms - Round Two (Heat 6)

    Though this will probably play second fiddle to the other tie today, its still a biggie IMO Dads Army (shrimpled) vs Men Behaving Badly (Einstein)
  19. BLUEBLOOD

    Battle of the Sitcoms - Round Two (Heat 5)

    Welcome to quite possibly the best day of the competition so far ... Porridge (Southminster Shrimper) vs Fawlty Towers (Statski77) These 2 could've easily expected to reach the semis at least, but one will fall here and now ... its up to you to decide which one !!!!!
  20. BLUEBLOOD

    Battle of the Sitcoms - Round Two (Heat 4)

    Secondly today we have My Name is Earl (Napster) vs The Vicar of Dibley (Genial Harry Grout) I don't know the first one, and can't stand the second .. so its probably a good job i leave the voting to you lot !!!! I believe Napster is holidaying, so if anyone would care to take up the battle...
