Film Suggest comedies!

[old.Tohtori]

I want laughs.

Well,inner laughs as i don't do the general muahahahaha*snortchokefallover* thing that much.

Anyhoo, movies and/or series which have good laughs would be lovely.

How i met your mother, scrubs, big bang theory...work fine. British comedy needs to be more of the black books style though, somehow the laugh/etc style is better with yanks.

Movies, well, break up, good luck chuck, all good watching but nothing "really haha" comedies lately. So all suggestions welcome.

tried peep show?

best of the best for modern british comedy.

youll be laughing all the way to the toilet so you dont piss your self.

 

[old.Tohtori]

Oh damn. I always thought peep show was fast show related, and as such, assumed i had sen it. Quick look at youtube proved me wrong though.

Excellente tris-! :worthy:

Not to mention it's perfect 'cause it has many many seasons i can buy

 

[Helme]

Blackadder, A Bit of Fry & Laurie, and to a lesser extent House are all good for laughs.


Yes, I like Hugh Laurie sue me.

 

[Billargh]

The Mighty Boosh

 

[Bahumat]

Yeah boosh is good but you will either love it or hate it. Peep show is great, numberwang sketch especially.

 

[Thorwyn]

Extras

 

[pikeh]

I second Peep Show and Father Ted!
gonna do the normal Garth Marenghi's DarkPlace plug as well.

 

[pikeh]

numberwang sketch especially.

numberwang is the Mitchell and Webb look, not Peep Show. Same people though!

 

[Afran]

Yeah, Peep Show & Extras are amongst my favourites. Forgetting Sarah Marshall is meant to be funny, but I've yet to see it (apparantley similar to Good Luck Chuck which you mentioned, which I found hilarious ) The Office is also great if you haven't already seen it, UK version that is, I can't stand the American one.

 

[chipper]

Spaced

[Lamp]

Do you like Star Trek as well, Russell ?

 

[russell]

No -But Bill Bailey also makes me lol. Is he alien?

 

[Lamp]

He might be. No human can possibly have such a hair and beard combo going at the same time for so long. Bill Bailey's genius.

 

[kiliarien]

numberwang is the Mitchell and Webb look, not Peep Show. Same people though!

Aye I'd give 'That Mitchell & Webb Look' a go Toh, very funny, especially the opening Nazi sketch which continues later.

Also, I'd give 'Brass Eye' a look, especially if you like satirical comedy that's close to the line. :lol:

For films, you have to 'Shaun of the Dead' and 'Hot Fuzz' for Pegg's performances.

 

[Afran]

Ah, indeed Spaced is good. Watch Hot Fuzz if you haven't already seen it!

 

[Shagrat]

I second the recommendation for Spaced. Really funny series.

 

[Edmond]

I 3rd Spaced (my sig has something to do with it )

love Scrubs, Family Guy

but old stuff, the young ones was my fav growing up

 

[cog]

As much as I love most of whats already been posted, Arrested Development is probably the funniest show I have ever seen. Absolutely hilarious

 

[Edmond]

Forgot 'Flight of the Conchords' very funny

 

[Lamp]

Forgot 'Flight of the Conchords' very funny

I watched a couple of episodes of that. Couldn't get into it at all.

 

[russell]

Gavin and Stacey is good to.
