Any of you lot seen a show called The Mighty Boosh.
It's a British series with Noel Fielding in it.
It's a bit weird but piss funny.

I find it hard to watch repeats of any other comedy series maybe MASH.
Used to love pommy shows as a kid but most bore me now.
Enjoed The Office and Red Dwarf but cant stand repeats of them.
IT crew is great and Young Ones was good in its time.
Bottom of the list is Friends, unfortunately Mrs Wedge likes Friends. Drives me insane.


100% agreed, Trailer Park Boys is the best comedy I have seen since the Young Ones (which I still love.) The episode where Lahey and Randy are caught in the 'act' had me in tears, and Ricky's continual abuse of the English language is gold.

Are they ever going to release the 5th series DVD's in Australia????

The Bottom Live DVD's are also hilarious if anyone is a fan of Rik Mayall and Adrian Edmondson.

I've heard TPB mentioned here before but never investigated it - must do if you think it's on a par with the Young Ones! Am I right in saying it's never been on free to air Oz TV?

Never really got Bottom...there were a few good episodes but it always seemed a bit forced to me. Interviewed Ade Edmonson once...

I sought out a TPB DVD (series 1 and 2) after reading people's opinions of it here and elsewhere. It's not on par with the Young Ones. Certainly worth watching 'coz it gives a few chuckles, but by no means did it have me rolling on the floor with soiled undies.

Never got into bottom much either (*).

Been enjoying Ramsay also, but not sure about the staging. These people as annoyed as they are must still kow that they are in a business that is going under, and as such have to take on board advice, even if they arent keen on it.

A cult series which I used to watch whilst at Uni was Bosom Buddies. It was the series that launched Tom Hanks' career although I did prefer Peter Scolari in it.
