Mr Cary's Top 10 Sitcoms

What do you think about this list so far? Mr Don and Mr George is a bit left-field?
Didn't I read that zooo hates Bread?

Mr Don & Mr George is a fascinating choice. Not one I've ever seen, nor hear about very often (or otherwise, at all?). Will have to move it up my 'to watch' list!

Don't think that was me!

I used to fancy the silly poet one, I think.

It was an Absolute offshoot. I loved it.

Absolutely, Chappers.

Dunno where I got that about Bread.

No, this was a few years back.

Oh.........over to you zooo ;)

Don't bother.

Red Dwarf at 6? Eh?

I've never seen 'Red Dwarf', apart from the odd clips that appear now and again on shows about sitcom. It looks dreadful.

I liked 'Bread' until the original Joey left, after which it just wasn't the same.

I watched a little of 'Black Books' but couldn't see anything very funny about it. The same goes for Dylan Moran's stand-up act.

"Bluestone 42" wasn't at all bad in itself but it must inevitably be compared with "M.A.S.H" and that's rather like comparing Shakin' Stevens with Elvis.

The award for greatest-ever sitcom might reasonably be awarded to "Allo! Allo!".

My signature photo should let you know where I stand. ;)

One Foot in the Grave better than Hancock? I don't believe it! Stone me!

Of course all comedy is subjective but I'm not sure a man who owns up to writing Miranda and episodes of My Hero and My Family can be considered an expert on what's funny!
