Monkey dust was awesome, took a while to get it but once it makes sense it's brilliant

Given that it's a pre-watershed "family" show, the first couple of series of this are absolutely brilliant. I'm not sure I've seen it in a couple of years though.

Yup. It's well funny without being vulgar or having profanity.

All about the 12" version on the DVD

I've been to one of Matt berry's gigs. I was expecting comedy. I got music, a lot of pretty cool psychedelic stuff. And I saw this played live

I just discovered Snuff Box, the boyfriend sketches have me in stitches.

Mitch Hurwitz said somewhere that Arrested Development is essentially a British comedy, just made in America.

In terms of actual British comedies, can't beat Darkplace, AlPal, Psychoville and Peep Show. Too good.

(they are both mentioned on the list I've just seen, both very highly recommended)

Criminally underrated, Blue Rat episode was absolutely ridiculous

I bought snuff box on dvd for cheap knowing nothing about it. Probably the greatest purchase i've made
