For true sitcoms that would be hard, as they also seem to date very easily e.g. Faulty Towers. But is terms of comedic shows, I did find most series of the mighty boosh entertaining.

Mate, I love it. Loads of people hate it.
Went to see it live and it was a bit of a let down though.
Also saw them at a festival playing the songs from the show. The mosh pit for bouncy bouncy was mental.

Peep Show.

Good call. Finished 2015, there must have been at least one more decent one since then?

yeh, was about edit that it appeals to certain sensibilities. It's mental, so I love it .

Have watched some of the stage stuff - hard to replicate the tightness and slickness of the broadcasts.

Also will split opinion, but the original red dwarfs were on the beeb.

To be honest I haven't watched many TV shows taken to the stage but the ones I have have been disappointing.

Some years ago now though. Must be nearly 30 years?

Jeez, yes, I guess so. That's scary.....

I can honestly say I've never made an effort to watch a comedy programme since Vic Reeves Big Night Out, I just don't get the whole cheesy one-liner thing & witty observations... I quite liked Outnumbered though

There are some decent things I'd watch but, tbh, nowadays most things just pass me by anyway!

That makes me feel a bit better. Split up with some lass, Mighty Boosh Live was the main casualty of it all!

Well, that and my sanity...

 

[NorthernWisdom]

Ideal, Johnny Vegas. Now that was underrated as a sitcom. But that finished nearly ten years ago! Psychoville's just as old, I seem to be stuck in a time warp.

Time flies, and we all inevitably age and get grumpy...

 

[wingy]

Scotland seems to throw up some decent ones .
Shappi Korsandi and Kathryn Ryan.

I'm not sure whether to ask you to elaborate or not

You're now starting threads off just to push your own chip-on-your-shoulder agenda.
Really sad .

Inbetweeners?

 

[clint van damme]

Inbetweeners?

Scarily, that finished in 2010.

 

[NorthernWisdom]

Ghosts. I liked Ghosts!

 

[TomRad85]

Last sitcoms I found funny are probably about a decade old. Inbetweeners, Peep Show, IT Crowd, Psychoville (great shout.) Haven't found a single one funny since then.

Oh actually, Toast of London had its moments and House of Fools made me laugh. Basically I like Matt Berry + Vic and Bob

IT Crowd was great, I used to fancy Jen in her suit and heels.

Good shout. I really enjoyed Toast and far more recent than most mentioned.

Loved it. But it's 7 years old. Scary how old some of the shows mentioned are when in my mind they seen quite recent

Not on E4 and More4 it didn’t.

 

[TomRad85]

I don't think 'lefties' make comedy unfunny, I'd imagine a lot of my favourite comedies are written by and star left wingers (that's entertainment for you.) But I'd suggest the recent output, especially on certain channels for sure, has been hijacked by the new ultra woke left and those people are about as funny as castrating yourself with a blunt knife.

Same, still class that as a new sitcom. Slightly worrying.

Last leg? Too woke?
I've found it can crack Me up ,but it is woke and overtly political.

Don't find it funny at all. Adam Hills seems to have made a career off having one leg and mentioning it a lot because he sure isn't funny.

Edit: I should mention you are allowed to like it, I'm not the gatekeeper of funny but its not for me at all.

32 years since first series.

Had a documentary on Dave about it and new RD has been on the TV in each of the last five decades. That made me feel bloody old!

Ghosts. I liked Ghosts!

I did too. Should be a new series readily any time as they finished filming about three hours before lockdown started.

Can happily revisit Red Dwarf every couple of years. Love that show.

Vic and bob are in my humble opinion the greatest ever.. Big Night Out was unlike anything that came before or after, I can still watch it now

Brass Eye I liked too, but whether you’d call that political, god knows.

Atleast Boris actually got brexit done, imagine if these two got in, country would be at war with some poor fuckers.

That literally makes no sense. Not a big fan of the guy but he's one of the most anti-war politicians around. Strange.
