Well, I have so much comedy that I like, some people say too much, but (apart from the Goodies of course) here's the list:
\'- Monty Python
\' - Blackadder
\' - Fawlty Towers
\' - Ripping Yarns
\' - Mighty Boosh
\' - Red Dwarf
\' - Black Books
\' - A Bit Of Fry And Laurie
\' - Young Ones
\' - QI
\' - ISIRTA
\' - ISIHAC
\' - Jeremy Hardy Speaks To The Nation
\' - Just A Minute
\' - Have I Got News For You
\' - Absolute Power
and so on. I can't stand shows like Little Britain and Catherine Tate Show though. The characters annoy me and it's pretty much exactly the same premise every week. |

ah bbc7.... saviour of my sanity.
I had no tv last year and listen again kept me entertained for hours with comedy and sci-fi!
I used to go to bed at about 11pm, switching everything off but my laptop and just relax!
can't do that now- got dial up! |

I like BBC7, liten to that a lot as there's so much good stuff on it. I've always loved round te horne. Visual wise, Ripping yarns is a faveand the Mighty Boosh. It's weird enough for me, Wonder what I'll get for crimbo. |

' You all have such great taste!!
Rocketgirl - I agree that Spaced is the greatest!! I absolutely love it and I adore Simon Pegg.
Totally agree with those who mentioned Futurama, Hitchikers (in any of its many formats), Iron Chef and of course Python.
The D-gen were the coolest weren't they? I used to have the Funky Squad annual too. What on earth did I do with it? We have the Late Show DVD which is fantastic. Love re-living all those moments from the early 90s.
Actually I pretty much agree with everyone's taste round here.
I'm sure there's lots more stuff that I like and have forgotten to mention but one who comes to mind is Eddie Izzard. Especially round the "Dress to Kill" and "Glorious" era. | Yes the late show for me is the best Australian comedy of my generation.  |

' I'm big on Little Britain, The Simpsons, Frasier, Extras (coming to Aus soon I believe), Monty Python, Good News Week (when it was on the ABC), Billy Connolly, most of the pre-Goodies stuff that the Goodies were in, Family Guy (I saw the pilot of that recently... completely different), and any old Britcom that manages to come my way I tend to love... way too many to list. | Ahhhh Good news week I use to enjoy that.  |
