I guess I should have introduced myself. I started watching British sitcoms on PBS when I was a kid thinking that I might get a glimpse of nudity on British TV. Alas, I was always disappointed with every episode of "Are You Being Served" that passed without seeing Miss Brahms' knickers.
My favourite single episode of any British sitcom is "Come on You Blues" of "The Thin Blue Line" (but I am still a British sitcom neophyte). I like "Little Britain," "The Mighty Boosh," and lots of older sitcoms. But my favourite show is "Spaced."
I am not very impressed with American sitcoms at the moment, with the exception of "Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia."
This is an interesting board, as I have always wondered about the impressions that other countries have about America based on television shows. I have been to England (mainly Scotland) for two different summers and really started appreciating British humour--which I don't think a lot of Americans do.
P.s. I will be using this board to practice my British slang, so correct me if I mistake my Geordie with my Cockney.
