Oh, this is easy. I remember it well!

And that's the truthththththth.

(I also remember all of Ed's [incorrect] responses.)

Oh, No...You're not bringing back Tiny Tim!

Condraduations. You win second place. [:o)]

Tiny Tim past away some time back. Several others from the show are also gone now. (I guess you can say he is tip toeing through the tuplips) I'm gonna hear from Mookie on that one.

I thougth the show was super went I was a teen and saw the originals. Several years ago I saw some reruns on cable and thought "I used to like that show". It just wasn't as funny now as I remember it being then. Oh well, times change and so do people.

Kinda like watching re runs of Monty Python, its was off the wall and funny then, sorta tame now.
The new crop of stand ups, Chris Rock, guys like that, did in the tongue in cheek humor that forced you to think about what was said.
George Carlon did that a lot, you had to think about what he was saying, like his seven dirty words routine.
Then, it was shocking, but made some sense, from his standpoint.
Now days, you hear those words on HBO regularly.
Did have one of the great big flower decals plastered to my bedroom wall, does that count?
And a poster of Goldie Hawn.
Stay Frosty,
Ed

I love the old Monthy Python movies, (Jim in his best British accent) "Tis a Killer Rabbit". lol But to truly appreciate them you need 4 or 5 friends and who knows how much to drink. [:D]

[Mookie]

Well, the Mookie of course, has something to say on this one!

I loved Laugh-In - and while I am 1/2 English - never understood Monte Python - Maybe I am too English for it! (Stuffy)

I emulated Arte Johnson and his tricycle - every time I went fishing. We always took those cheap webbed lawn chairs that would fold up like a paper napkin in water. I would always bait my own hook and the bait was always just a little bit out of reach. So instead of standing up - I would reach over and try to snag it. Always did the Arte Johnson bit - then had to try to get untangled alone, since husband would be laughing so hard, he couldn't function to get over and help me!

If you ever want to watch old comedy - take me fishing sometime!

....Anyone remember the English program..."On the Buses"...I thought those two fellows were some of the best comedy on TV at the time.

When I lived in England, one of the local bus companies had equipped some of their buses with TV's. Usually they were turned off, but the few times I saw them turned on, they were playing tapes of this show.

I have no idea whether the show was funny or not because they never turned the sound up.

Top Ten Briti***V comedies:

1. Monty Python's Flying Circus [:D]
Sorry Mookie but if ya can't laugh at the "confuse a cat" or the "dead parrot" sketch theres something wrong and I suggest heavy doses of psychotropic medication [:o)].

2. Fawlty Tower[:p]
John Cleese as the most insane innkeeper in England.
Look for the episodes called "The Germans" or "Basil the Rat"
Second only to Monty Python.

3. The Young Ones[}:)]
Most of you will not know this one but the rest who do know watching Vivian, Rick, Neal, and Micheal could be seriously harmfull to your health. I actually injured myself falling off my chair laughing at the "Bambi" episode.

4. The Benny Hill Show[;)]
See others postings.

5.The Good Nieghbors[:)]
Young couple decide to chuck the rat race and turn their suburban home into a farm...very, very funny. Look for it on video.

6. The Black Adder[^]
(all 5 series, Black Adder I, Black Adder II, Black Adder the party of the Third part, Black Adders goes Forth, and Black Adder goes Back and Forth)
Rowan Atkison verbal wit at his very, very best. Western European history was never funnier.

7. Bean[:p]
Again Rowan Atkinson only this time physical humor, every episode is a homage to silent comedy greats Keaton and Chaplin.

8. The Hitchhiker Guide to the Galaxy.[8)]
Sci Fi skewered with a lightsaber up its catflap. You'll learn why its dreadfully inportant to know where your Towel is , and the the Answer to the Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything is in fact, 42!

9. Red Dwarf
Again Sci Fi humor 3 million years in the future with a rastafarian astronuat, a complete prat of a hologram and a cat-man whos great-great-great x 1000 grandmother was the ships mascot.

10. The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin.
A very very funny series of a man tyring to destroy his business only to find the very things he hoped would fail become a huge success.


Hey it my list and I'll put down what I thought was the funniest. There are others including some I've completely blanked out on, so if you can add to it feel free.

P.S. This has been edited by Vsmith.

9. The Goodies
70's Hippie humor at its very best (Kitty Kong episode), very rare to see it on this side of the pond.

and

10. The Alexie Sayles Show.
Again very rare to see on this side, but very pointetly barbed humor at the expense of Iron Maggies government.

Hey it my list and I'll put down what I thought was the funniest. There are others including some I've completely blanked out on, so if you can add to it feel free.

My C R S is working on me tonight, but I like John Cleese in the series about the British Bed & Breakfast. I just can't remember what it was called. I always like whatever he does. Even his old Magnavox commercials. Smart, very smart. [:)]
