 ost_uid0]So... what`s your favourite television comedy series?  I just love 3rd Rock from the Sun, Seinfeld and Malcolm in the Middle. And currently my absolute favourite is Scrubs. A brilliant little show! Â  However, my all-time favourites are definitely the British comedies - Fawlty Towers, Monty Python`s Flying Circuis and especially Yes, Prime Minister. In case you haven`t seen it, it`s an incredibly sophisticated yet outrageously funny political satire... I just adore it! So, how about you folks? [/colorost_uid0]

But what are the chances that really good sci-fi will be broadcast in my country at a timeslot that begins before twelve midnight (if at all)?You got it right, none absolutely.

ost_uid0]I think I've seen about all episodes of 3rd Rock from the Sun, so I don't watch it anymore. I don't really like the reruns.I have watched Friends, but I don't anymore. Sometimes I watch Scrubs though, if I can catch it.[/color ost_uid0]

ost_uid0]The only current comedy that I make an effort to watch is [bost_uid0]Duck Dodgers[/bost_uid0] on Cartoon Network. That show is hilarious and has a lot of good spoofs.[/colorost_uid0]

Maybe "The Smoke Screen", when the Prime Minister promoted chain-smoking Minister for Sport to Minister for Health, Or, "The Devil You Know": Minister: "You know, Humphrey, I think we`ve become very close over the past year. We have bonded. Humphrey: "We did, Minister..." Minister: "Like a terrorist and his hostage." [/colorost_uid0]

ost_uid0]The closest thing to a current comedy series that I liked was the live-action version of [iost_uid0]The Tick[/iost_uid0], which was so frequently preempted by election coverage in 2000 that it never caught hold. (Can't get NBC here, so I've never seen [iost_uid0]Scrubs[/iost_uid0].)Looking back a bit, there are, of course, [i ost_uid0]Monty Python's Flying Circus[/iost_uid0] and [iost_uid0]Blackadder[/iost_uid0], and I have fond memories of such shows as [iost_uid0]My Favorite Martian[/iost_uid0] and [iost_uid0]Get Smart![/iost_uid0] Mention is also due to [iost_uid0]Police Squad[/iost_uid0] and the short-lived Buck Henry/Mel Brooks creation [iost_uid0]When Things Were Rotten[/iost_uid0].[/colorost_uid0]

ost_uid0]That first one I don't remember (series three I'm guessing), but the second is from "The Middle-Class Rip-Off".Another good 'un - Sir Arnold: But once they have accepted the principle that senior civil servants could be removed for incompetence, that would be the thin end of the wedge. We could loose dozens of our chaps, hundreds perhaps. Humphrey: Thousands...[/color ost_uid0]
