Ah, now that's possibly my favourite ever programme. I wonder if that makes me a pretentious gay wanker! You should have given it a chance, Chip; not sure where you get the pretentious angle from.

Bizarrely, I did actually watch quite a lot of Six Feet Under. And there was stuff I liked in it - notably the incredibly repressed mother and her gay son (especially in the early seasons) - but the daughter got on my nerves. And the Peter Kraus character - he seemed such a drip.

He was my favourite!

He drifted around like he was in a coma every episode! I like a bit more spunk in my characters.

Well there was plenty of spunk in most of the other characters.
*Oh dear. I made a slight gay joke. I am a shameful bastard. *
Hey again, I like Friends, but, for what it was then, not what it is now...
Spaced was ok, but, nothing really happened for the whole two seris', however, I do like some of Simon Pegg's work.
As for sitcoms I would consider good, Peep Show is consistantly awesome, The Smoking Room was good as is The Mighty Boosh and Extras. I do like The Office but woldn't watch it again. Also, I think Two And A Half Men is worth a mention, consistently tight writing.
Oh and The Inbetweeners which was great one through six.
As for bad comedies, well let's be frank. There's more worse ones than there are good, but I partically dislike My Family, Teenage Kicks, and Scrubs (but the supproting cast make it watchable). Can't think of anything else I partically don't like. Actually, Only Fools And Horses 'the Uncle Albert era'. The first two series were brilliant, then it got boring and tedious.
Well, that's my two cents... Laters.

Not a TV show, but film: The Dark Knight. Just plain boring. And no matter how many virginal geeks tell me it's high art, I don't buy it.

Sex with other geeks doesn't count as proper sex.
Another film that left me cold was Appocalypse Now.

I do that all the time; if it's something I wanted to see and it's on the cheap.
