It has to be the office (us), Brooklyn 99 or the inbetweeners
You have to go back in the day for the best one’s IMO but in today’s PC world they aren’t flavour of the month .... at the time it was comedy people weren’t so sensitive and wrapped up in cotton wool as they are today ...
Til death us do part
Rising Damp
Porridge
Love thy Neighbour
But over the years there are so many difficult to choose an absolute favourite :tiphat:

Steptoe and Son
Fawlty Towers
Monty Python
The Goodies
I may be the only that thinks this but has comedy changed ? Some programmes billed as comedy have nothing funny in them or maybe it’s just my sense of humour?

I think a lot depends on the person watching. As an ex squaddie I absolutely love Bluestone 42, I think anyone who has served recognises all the characters but I can see that a civvy might watch it and wonder why we were laughing :)

Can’t say I’ve seen that .... but I guess it does depend on sense of humour..

Only a squaddie understands squaddies humour ?
