Comedy shouldn't revert to bad language unless its absolutely necessary (exception being step toe and son). For a comedy to revert to a bad language substitute (fek) and use it at every possible chance, is second rate. But each to their own, some do enjoy it.

We like it - it usually gives us at least one laugh out loud moment.  Little else does on tv at the moment.

I like the poll. Already closed. Good one.

Someone mentioned Blackadder. Now THAT is comedy genius. The writing is superb, the acting and comedic timing excellent.

Someone once said to me that Blackadder was all about sarcasm and sarcasm isn't funny  :o  And they were British too.

My sense of humour is a little wacky if not dry, Scunner, I doin't find him funny at all, but there has been the odd occasion that has made me laugh, seeing him deported was one. 


The funniest man on the forum was Crabbit, but no one else laughed, a very mis-understood man.    ;)


Happy New Year.

How cruel, as I recall I make you laugh numerous times when we meet Loz. How cruel the dementia is, I mean :D

I cannot really comment on Mrs Brown's Boys as never seen any of the various series other than the odd comedy clip on FB.  Whilst I love some of French & Saunders stuff, not all of it made me laugh, and I found a lot of Python and Rowan Atkinson (including Blackadder) somewhat infantile.  For me, my favourite comedy was audio, not visual.....I refer to the immortal Kenneth Horne and his ensemble cast....no Sunday afternoon was complete without Beyond our Ken or Round the Horne....
