Here are 20 recent comedies that wouldn't have been green-lit today.
Ed Power, The Telegraph, 17th October 2017BBC Comedy Sitcom Signature Tunes
There is one element in the sitcom which is overlooked - the signature tune. Evocative 30 second sequences of tightly-composed music which set the tone for the half-hour which follows. Without you realising it, that signature tune embeds itself in your psyche. From now until the end of your life, that tune will be a shortcut to the time when that sitcom made the first and greatest impact on you.
Jon Jacob, BBC Blogs, 2nd September 2016I'm all in favour of scatology, when it's used to deflate pomposity or to prevent art from falling into pretentiousness but, for the past six weeks, Game On (BBC2) has been using the full Viz vocabulary without displaying even a glimmer of the Viz wit that might justify it.
