The worst "comedy" ever foisted on my eyes was that steaming barrel of 5hite "My Hero" starring Ardal O'Hanlon which somehow got funded by the BBC for 6 seriesI'd find a Harold Shipman documentary funnier


Carry on Doctor was a good film

Plenty from the BBC (via the taxpayer) who've stole a living in recent times

Virtually all of the decent comedies of the last 20 years have been on Channel 4

think sometimes these bbc comedies are commissioned on potential audience figures alone, ie mrs brown boys, bbc know its **** but know public will watch it in its droves.
its like liam gallagher making an album, he knows its total turd and only retards will buy/download it but he knows will sell in its millions.

Have had funnier acid reflux than Miranda, Les Dawson was brilliant, so we're Morecambe & Wise. Liked Little Britain too, and the office.

Mr Spock the Peep Show is a shocking omission to your list of good sitcoms.   I quite liked Birds of a Feather.  They spoke like me, came from my neck of the woods and I fancied 2 of them.  The last bit of info is probably a bit wrong. Grin

I fancied Pauline Quirke I thought she had a warm personality and err comely and buxom charms.   The second one was the old girl she seemed a right goer.   The perfect milf to sort out a young inexperienced lad.  Life was so simple then.

Good list Spock, also liked the I.T Crowd. Richard Ayoade was made for comedy. The nutcase boss was good in it too, think he was called Gus. Rising damp was brilliant with great comedy actors in it

Not really my cup of tea but I could see the merit in Ab Fab.  Jennifer Saunders probably the best of brit women in terms of writing.

I'm sure if everyone honestly confessed their secret crushes she wouldn't be the worse not by a long shot.   In fact if I sat down and racked my noodle I'm sure I could come up with someone even less "acceptable".
