I dug Darkplace and tried (in earnest) to get into the Boosh, but couldn't. Now Peep Show... I haven't seen it all, but I've loved every episode I've seen.

As I said before, I actually have no trouble accepting that some people don't like Boosh.  "Philistines" was a bit of a private joke (one of the things I hate most in this world is when people like or don't like something and insist that those who don't agree are idiots; I mean, so we don't all have the same tastes--big deal).

While I appreciate Darkplace,  the concept is really the biggest laugh.  I only really need to watch one episode at a time to get my fill for awhile. 

In fact, usually I just watch the Ape-a-loid chase.

I'm watching Peep Show Series 4 (having not watched 3 yet) and just got to the episode (#5) where they take the boat down the canal.  The last four minutes (with the dog) was so horrible that I laughed until I had tears coming out of my eyes.

Good work, Mitchell and Webb and Bain and that other guy.  Hilarious.


PS The last episode of Series 4 is even funnier.  The now hopelessly uncool saying "Oh no they didn't" was made for these two episodes.


I really don't appreciate your sarcastic, anti-comedy tone, Bro!

British comedy disappointments:  I didn't find Big Train funny at all, except for the music-related jokes.  Black Books is ok but the idea of it is kind of funnier than the actual show. 

Whaaaaaaat? Oh - I guess this is a music-related joke,  but ....

I liked the majority of Big Train but that clip takes the cake for me. I could watch it ten times in a row.

And I love Black Books to pieces.

And Dark Places.


And most British TV shows I've seen ....
