Yes, Red Dwarf for me as well. Fawlty Towers was good, but has been shown sooo many times, it's lost it's appeal for me...


Edit: Red Dwarf ended at 18. Man Behaving Badly at 16.

OK, can you think of any great sitcoms produced by ITV?

Please, please, please don't let it be Only Fools that comes out on top! Highly overrated IMO. I voted for Fawlty Towers, but would also like to see Yes Minister/Prime Minister come high up too. Paul Eddington was a top comedy actor. Still like The Good Life too.

Its being decided as we speak. Here is MY top 3

1. Only Fools and horses - Best ever easly doesnt resort to cheap humor or onne-liners and also has serious aspects e.g. Death, mis-carrage and the characters are more developed than any other comedy and have real depth! Image blackadder or dads army dealing with that! 7 seasons worth of gold.

2. Yes Minster - Underated great script which is secound only to the above. While is might not be the easyest comedy and hard to actually find funny for some people. I thinks its great. Also dispite what you might think you dont need to like politics to like this!

3. Fawlty Towers - Scripts may not be as good as the above but its great physical comedy of clesse!

Forget the actual results who did you want to win and why

Since my other Favs have gone - I want Blackadder to win now.

I've re-opened up the poll for another few weeks, let others have a chance to vote who didn't vote previously. :)

One Foot In The Grave for me, mainly because Victor is my hero and my life is just as crap as his, only mine is real.

Damien 27-03-2004 23:10

Re: Britains Top Sitcom
 
Actually the poll results are what i think will happen. Only fools, fawlty towers and blackadder in that order. Fair enough.

I dont like the title though It should be Most ppopular comedy as best is not really a good word for it. Especially since yes minster is not in the top 3

Re: Britains Top Sitcom
