I'm ashamed to say I don't get

What truly, popular, legendary show do you just not get?

It's in those stupid top 100 shows with Richard Bacon, Jonathon Ross wanks over it, some one even said it cured his piles.

But you, just well don't get it.

Fawlty Towers, Dad's Army, Monty Python?

My list; 'Allo 'Allo!, The Two Ronnies, Catherine Tate and Little Britain (to be fiar after series 1).

Also Catherine Tate
Keeping up Appearances
Last of the Summer Wine
Saw the League of Gentlemen once or twice and didn't really get that

Little Britain... at all
French and Sanders...

Dad's Army, Catherine Tate, French & Saunders (though like them both in their individual stuff), Last of the Summer Wine, Rab C. Nesbitt (though I think I just didn't understand at all). A lot of Monty Python's Flying Circus is not funny to me, though the films are. Especially Life of Brian which is one of the funniest films ever.

There are many, many others I'm sure.

Bo' Selecta I get -- it's just not remotely funny...

Dan

Second Bo' Selecta, although Avid Merrion interviews did make me laugh.

Tittybangbang - Three Series! Three series!

Absolutely Fabulous.

Seinfeld.

Little Miss Jocelyn and aforementioned Tittybangbang...

Also finally got round to watching Pulling (because I fancy Sharon Hogarth) and didn't really get it.

The Office. Neither the English nor the German version ('Stromberg').

Go for the hat trick and try the American.

Green Wing.

Spaced. The Office. The Mighty Boosh. Peep Show. Butterflies. The Young Ones.

I'd like to add ABFAB.

I'm ashamed to say I don't get why I like AbFab. :)
