well i used to watch benny hill and the goodies when i was younger.
i have been watching them on fox lately and although not hillarious, they are still quite funny.
Have to agree with Benny Hill. Used to think it was the funniest show on television when I was a kid. Now it just looks like a lot of sexist, racist (and just about every other 'ist') crap. Same recycled gags and very unfunny. The Goodies still gave me a giggle, but looks very dated.
Watched a bit of the Dave Allen Show again recently and, while some of the skits looked dated, his jokes (particularly the religious ones) are as funny as ever.
As for movies, Flying High and Top Secret were no longer funny. Neither was Animal House or Time Bandits.
Thank goodness for Monty Python though. Monty Python and the Holy Grail and Life of Brian (and even The Meaning of Life) are still hysterical decades later.
