something like "my hero" on the BBC.
that programme is truly dire.

I quite like Frasier.
"my hero" is maybe hilarious compared to footage from Beslan.

i only made this statement in actuality of a few ppl i know over there, and actually 2 gentlemen i met at a bar tonight who were from the UK no business trip and were flying back tonight.
they were rabbling on to me over and over about the television and how they "somethings omething " didnt see all of that where they were from ,and found it interesting.
I really couldnt ask them / him to repeat himself too many times, as that would be rude.
but it was all in a good course of exchangement

I miss cheers; i was just old enough to catch the "last episode" and at the time I didn't quite know what they meant by that. But I still remember it.
Funny how that works

this technological age has killed everyone's fucking imagination, especially when it Comes to sitcoms and oldies and the likes.

the only one i can think of which is worst than othe one you just mentioned (too scared to mention it again, 3 times the fucking candyman will appear) is birds of a feather. oh, the hilarity of the class clash with regards cultural norms. fucking hell, it was bad.

i think you're picking on k9. it's not his fault he could only move at 2mph over concrete surfaces. you also missed out duty free.

Oh Duty Free, the Beckettian, studio bound holiday programme.
If you can get the clip of the intro to K9 and Company, when he's sitting on the wall rather precariously, .... oh, I had tears in my eyes.

chemlsford 1-2-3 had its moments, before rory "they think your career is all over" mcgrath fell out with jimmy "another shit sitcom, what was it called?" mulville. and of course, 7 series of drop the dead donkey still stand up to repeated viewing. excellent stuff.

I like the way they show Elisabeth Sladen reading the paper, drinking a glass of wine outside in the chilly, eternal autumn that is 80s Britain, and then going off driving. You wouldn't get that now.
The Christmas BBC ident is a super bonus too.

I'm trying to think of more without resorting to visiting the InnerWeb....
Me and My Girl (though i did fancy her) Birds of a Feather is the shittest and has ruined many a Xmas with its "specials"
same goes for Fools and Horses the thing with Dennis Waterman and Rula Lenska (I can't spell)
Home James with Jim Davidson
