Black Adder was quality, as was Alan Partridge. |

A lot of the comedy out at the moment seems to have a very short shelf life. Everyone used to think Little Britain was the dogs when it was about. I doubt it would make anyones top 20 now.
If you ask someone what their favourites are they, more often than not, will bring up some of the older comedies. They don't make 'em like they used to.

Little Britain had its moments, some of it was genius. |

Its one of those you either liked or disliked - I disliked it Another one I never saw the point of but the majority of people loved it was Only Fools And Horses. Similar with Birds of a Feather |

If you didn't find Only Fools & Horses funny there is something wrong with you. |

So you assume that there has to be something wrong with a person because you like a comedy and the other person doesn't - not heard about personal tastes and that programme was not of my taste - too low brow for my standards |

Too low brow and yet you put Rising Damp on your list? |

Now RD was (and is) a timeless classic - Anything that Leonard Rossiter was in is a timeless classic - although just out of my top 5 but the Fall and Rise and Reginald Perrin - original (not the new adaptation which is very poor) |

For what it's worth I agree about Rising Damp, but it was just as low brow as OF&H. |

for me I just think that RD has something special to it compared than OF&H - whether its David Jason, whom I normally do like as a comedic actor, or Nicholas Lyndhurst, or possibly the setting. But OF&H I just cannot watch, appreciate or laugh with/at - although I do acknowledge it is comedy classic in the television world.

Wouldn't know as it is quintessentially a British sitcom that started life on Granada and then transferred to Channel 4 |
