Non Footy Chat Thread II

I do love me some British comedy shows.

The Young Ones has been a favourite since I was a kid.
Blackadder.
Fawlty Towers.
Spaced.
The Inbetweeners.
The Office.
Extras.

I still don't know if I can consider After Life a comedy. It can be very funny at times, but it's also really melancholy and sad. Great show, whatever genre it wants to be in.

Inbetweeners is funny but gets a bit boring. 3 seasons was right amount.
Didn't like The office, Blackadder or Fawlty towers.

To be fair, I haven't seen Fawlty Towers or Blackadder for a long time. But I liked them when I was younger.

The Office is just masterful cringe comedy. Not for everyone, so I'm not surprised you don't like it.

An oldie but a goodie.

That was one I didn't really like that much. I found Frank Spenser to be a bit too annoying. I guess that was the point of his character, but it just wasn't for me.

I did like Benny Hill when I was a kid.
I didn't understand 80% of the jokes, but I still had a laugh for some reason.

No love for Alan Partridge??

Darren Has Maggie Over For Dinner​

In season 2, Darren reveals that he has a crush on Maggie. He invites her over to his place for dinner and she accepts. The dinner goes okay, but then Darren clogs up the toilet.

The episode in season 2 was the FUNNIEST I have seen for a long time....

FTR L&S weren't exactly a 70's highlight either.

So in The One Where Chandler Dies In His Spa, after all that it was a Ketamine (relapse?) that caused Matthew Perry's death.

Matthew Perry died from effects of drug ketamine, coroner says

The Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner has deemed the Friends actor’s death an accident.
