Greatest sitcoms of all time?

George & Mildred. That Yootha Joyce was a stunner.

 

I knew her brother Hugh!

 

There were so many good sitcoms made in the 70's and 80's that I've forgotten half of them I reckon.

I like these............

Only Fools & Horses
Father Ted(this program just buckles me sometimes. Genuine moments)
Friends
Fawlty Towers
Blackadder
Game On
Porridge
Cheers
'Allo 'Allo!
Rab C. Nesbitt
Still Game
I'm Alan Partridge
One Foot in the Grave

 

Just noticed the Porridge with David Jason in it is on BBC 4 tonight.

 

Don't know of anyone's mentioned it but I think arrested development is the funniest show I've seen. Unbelievably witty

 

apart from all the obvious ones the middle is pretty good

 

laurel and hardy

 

I used to laugh at this when watching with my ma

Never got right into it....but she was a great character!
It should have been better than it was i think.Too many also rans among the rest of the cast though....especially her husband, who for me, should have had more of a recognised good actor playing the downtrodden hubby.
Paul Eddington in The Good Life played a similar role brilliantly.

 

The 2 series I can't stop watching just now (Well suppose they're the same series) are Porridge and Going Straight. Ronnie Barker is genius in them, it's timeless TV.

Only Fools and Horses as well. Actually one of my favourite episodes of Porridge is Pardon Me which also stars David Jason!

 

Also love The Office UK, Still Game, Rab C and Father Ted...All including Porridge are absolutely hilarious.

 

Not Going Out is good.love the one-liner stuff

 

That was the episode that was on BBC 4 last night.

Can't say I ever really got into Going straight as much but haven't seen it that often.

Think I miss the other characters. That one last night Barraclough was absolutely brilliant. Insisting he hadn't signed the petition until it was presented to him.

 

Without a doubt:

Frasier
Yes Minister
Porridge
Open All Hours
Only Fools and Horses
The Office (UK)
Still Game
I'm Alan Partridge
Father Ted

To an extent:

Everybody Loves Raymond
The Inbetweeners
Cheers
Fawlty Towers
Blackadder
Last of the Summer Wine
Keeping Up Appearances
Friends

 

Only fools and horses, Love thy neighbour,George and Mildred, Rab C Nesbitt and Game on as already mentioned were among my favourite oldies along with Bless this house, On the buses, , Man about the house,Mind your language and Bread. Best most recent though are Still Game, Mrs Browns Boys and that new one on ESPN. Not sure what it's called can anyone help me out.

 

The Chucky and Sally Show....4th rate, but may improve given time (HMRC would prefer Bar L):smiley-laughing002:

 

That might be it mate. Does it start at 11-30 am on a Saturday morning and feature 44,500 zombies (allegedly) cheering on 11 wannabe footballers (acting is pish but a good laugh all the same) and end with them booing as the main character (big fat bloke) disappears down a big dark tunnel.

 

Only Fools and Horses easily.

 

Aye 45.500 fools and 11 horses. Mare like only tools and zombies

 

Friends, Still Game...
