I never liked the office. Mainly because when I first watched it, I thought it was a real documentry, and formed an immediate opinion, without giving the program time to make itself obvious to me.

Still, my top 3 would be:

Red Dwarf (love Listers hair)
Blackadder (Because I am currently trying to grow his beard from the first series)
Only Fool's and Horses.

That wasn't an all out sitcom though, at least not when it first started.

It was a fix! The Vicar was going to be voted off with the least amount of votes with Porridge & Yes Minister, but somehow made it to number 3 :confused: It's a travesty of justice, Brian, that Fawlty Towers only made it to number 5 :( I suppose we've got lots of OFAH repeats to look forward to now :mad: Still what are Saturday nights on the BBC for? :rolleyes:

Yes Minister should have been higher as well, I'd put money on the fact that the Government is exactly like it is portrayed in the programme :D

EDIT: 100 posts, Excellent.....

Where is 'Allo 'Allo ?
The TV series actually ran longer than WW II !

Top 3 for me

Yes Minister
Faulty Towers
Porridge

And I agree with Mr Burns that the result was a fix. I think Carol Vorderman on her knees had a lot to do with Dibley coming 3rd.

Or, almost any of the scenes with Queenie in Black Adder 2...
The whole episode with the Germans in Fawlty Towers... German:"Will you stop going on about the war?".
Basil : "You started it!"
German: "No we didn't!"
Basil : "Yes, you did, you invaded Poland!". Pure class..
