Comedy at Home
Even without the unique circumstance of 2020, it's the time of year when we're all looking for something to cosy up with for a good laugh. With more time being spent home than normal, here's a selection of brilliant domestic sitcoms from the Network catalogue to entice your comedy taste buds this winter. Each is set primarily or solely in a home, so snuggle up warm with that glowing feeling that only a comedy escape can give.
Aaron Brown, Network, 10th December 2020"And Mother Makes Three" (Thames) is off-the-peg situation comedy, a shameless lift from "Lucy" or "My Three Sons" or "The Ghost and Mrs Muir." Personally, I doubt it widows with young children lead such hilarious lives, but American TV insists it is a copper-bottomed comic situation, so who am I to carp?
