I'm willing to bet that the majority of the comedies on the list were originated by the Beeb.

Couldnt really name one
My house didnt have a TV till about 20 years ago my parents couldnt afford it
by the time we got a tv of any kind I was at an age where I was more interested in looking at the start of my carreer and going out and enjoying myself.
I didnt have my own tv till about 15 years ago by which time I was @ work and very rarely watched any tv but did watch rented movies. Still had to pay a licence for that privalege, a few years later I have kidz who really are only interested in cartoon network, movies and computer games.
BBC barely figures in my families persoanl history and highly unlikely to ever figure in its future either.
Hence the begrudged TV licence which I hasten to add is set to become known as "Computer TAX" in the not too distant future.
Why should we finance a corporation that just doesnt figure in our lives never has and likely never will ?
