Looking for a new show

Hey guys, I'm an American looking for a new Britcom to watch. It's been a few years since I was last on the board but with Peep Show returning I'm looking for some new stuff from the UK. Below is a list of some of my favs from the past hope you guys can suggest some new programming for me :D

Shows I love

Peep Show
The Inbetweeeners
The Office UK
Lead Balloon
Alan Partridge (all series)
Father Ted
Extras
Spaced
Gavin & Stacey (it was pretty good)
There are more I just can't think of off the top of my head

Shows I didn't love so much

Friday Night Dinner
Green Wing
Red Dwarf
Black Books
Trollied (something like that)

Given the shows I like and the ones I don't what would you fine people suggest?

Fawlty Towers
Porridge
One Foot In The Grave
Rising Damp
Ideal
Operation Good Guys
Blackadder

Hmmm.

Reckon you would like Rev. Perhaps Spy too, and Threesome.

Thanks for the replies, I've tried Rev and Spy, they weren't really my speed. I've seen Fawlty Towers and Blackadder (very funny), Rising Damp etc but I'm looking for newer shows.. Again thanks for the tips! More would be appreciated :)

Can't seem to find Operation Good Guys online :(

Miranda?

That's new

And brilliant!!

Grandma's House & Hebburn were pretty good

Paris
Pete Versus Life
Pulling

Moone Boy.
Fresh Meat.
The IT Crowd.

The Mighty Boosh
Saxondale
Game On

Worst Week of My Life
The Old Guys
Episodes

Thanks very much for all of your help. Now that I have a list of new shows it's time to find them and hope I fall in love :)

Side Note: I've been watching the new show Cuckoo it's not bad. Think there maybe some potential there....
