Monty Python!
Benny Hill
AbFab
and my all-time fave, Keeping up Appearances! My family and I jokingly referred to my aunt and uncle as Hyacinth and Richard for the longest time. She's a bit fussy like Hyacinth, and my would just roll with her antics just like poor Richard.

Great bump!

Oh, Good Neighbors (The Good Life in Britain)-- I haven't thought of that in a long time, but I used to love it. I particularly liked Penelope Keith, who was also in one of my other favorite BritComs, To the Manor Born.

Has anyone ever heard of Heil Honey, I'm Home? I've only seen a tiny bit of one episode, but I'd like to see more. It's so impossibly non-PC it almost had to be good, but was pulled for the lack of good taste. You think? Needless to say, my guy loves to say that when he comes in. :rolleyes:

Diana is the female lead. Then there is also Harvey (the home's director) and Jane (his assistant).

I always liked Good Neighbours, As Time Goes By, and my ultimate favorite is Coupling.

From my favorite episode of Coupling.

While not specifically comedy (sort of comedy and drama mixed), I thoroughly enjoy Monarch of the Glen, especially the first three seasons. One of my all time favorite series anywhere. :D

IT Crowd is my favorite.

There's also some sketch shows I like a lot. Catherine Tate is hysterical, Mitchel & Webb, and of course the Little Britain series. Saxondale makes me laugh, but Extras was amazing and I still laugh at some episodes I rewatch.

I had heard of it before, but I saw part of a show on a montage of Britcoms.

Found it on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qWjCkcAmzDc!
