American comedy is often brilliant. But so is Brit comedy. They offer different perspectives and a slightly different take on the world.

I forgot about Extras, that really had it's moments,
the scene with Ian McKellen was brilliant, "gandalf gandalf gandalf... sir ian!"

I guess i'm forgetting the oldies too, like Dads Army, Only Fools and Horses, Porrige, they were all fanatstic,

oh and the Mighty Boosh I guess (let down by season 3) but yeah, thats alright.
