Funny to think of you watching French & Saunders and getting stoned - interesting combination ... <BR/><BR/>I think you've pretty much listed all the current comedy there - if I think of anything else I'll let you know!Old Cheeserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17871751335676050949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8262218.post-1165212370729521082006-12-04T06:06:00.000+00:002006-12-04T06:06:00.000+00:00I think my new fave characters in Series 2 are the...I think my new fave characters in Series 2 are the couple who discuss their utter annoyance with food diversity in England. LOL! <BR/><BR/>"...the dirty bastards!" <BR/><BR/>kills me. <BR/><BR/>Oh, yes. I LOVE Brit humor. Asian/French cinema and British comics! However, I keep thinking I should find a way to live in the UK. <BR/><BR/>Discovered French & Saunders while skipping class and getting stoned in the late 80's --- they used to show it on this network we had/have called Lifetime. <BR/><BR/>Then came AbFab. sigh. <BR/><BR/>I keep up with it all via Amazon.com UK: Spaced/Nighty Night/Peep Show/15 Stories High/The Smoking Room/3 Non Blondes/Green Wing/Gimmie Gimmie Gimmie/Comic Strip/Wild West--- if there are any out there I've missed -- let me know. I do enjoy Little Britain, but Series 3 kind of lost me.mattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13792716037555018912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8262218.post-1165167849715596412006-12-03T17:44:00.000+00:002006-12-03T17:44:00.000+00:00Matty!

I actually thought it was a lot better than the first one, it took a while to "get into" the characters...Some of my favourite other characters were the couple who ran the wig-making business and the singing / dancing waitress.<BR/><BR/>I'm sure you'll like the current series when you get to see it. I expect it will come out on DVD in the not-too distant future ... and sooner than a year I would have thought! That sucks that they've never shown it on TV though - fools!! <BR/><BR/>Glad to hear you're a fan of the English comics ... French & Saunders are an old fave, I do find their routines a little tired these days, but they did lots of great stuff in the past. Their skits of movies/tv shows/pop stars were brilliant e.g. Silence of the Lambs. And have you seen Absolutely Fabulous? A massive hit with the queens. Nighty Night I have never watched but heard good things about.<BR/><BR/>And the "gingers" were back in the current series of Catherine Tate, you'll be pleased to hear.Old Cheeserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17871751335676050949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8262218.post-1165085839862701072006-12-02T18:57:00.000+00:002006-12-02T18:57:00.000+00:00OH MY GOD! ...if only you knew how much I was wish...OH MY GOD! <BR/><BR/><BR/>...if only you knew how much I was wishing to see the current Catherine Tate Show! I just got the second series on DVD from Amazon UK and have watched it several times. <BR/><BR/>After French & Saunders and Nighty Night -- she is my absolute fave!!!!! <BR/><BR/>I guess I will have to wait a year before I can see this series. <BR/><BR/>...they have never shown her show on BBC America as far as I know. Nor did they ever air WILD WEST in the states. ...antoher series I really enjoyed! <BR/><BR/>Ginger comedy rules! LOL!mattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13792716037555018912noreply@blogger.com
