:laugh2: I quote from Father Ted a lot in daily life


My favourites are usually Dougal lines, the spider baby conversation and him answering a visiting Bishop about whether he ever has doubts about the religion are my favourites

Yeah that's also undoubtedly true of the show's resonance. I also liked Friends at the time btw, don't get me wrong lol. I guess I just prefer having a laugh over relating to the characters. But having said that, Seinfeld is also indicative of what a lot of people are like below the surface imo, even if they don't like to admit it. You ever watch Seinfeld, @Ammi?

…I’m another one who never really caught on the Seinfeld thing but I will give it another look sometime as I know how hugely popular it’s always been so I think that it was probably a ‘it’s me/not you, Seinfeld…thing….

…it’s funny how we connect with certain things…series/movies etc at certain times in our lives as well, I always think though…there are times when we might watch the exact same thing but just not have the same connection because our headspace, as it were…can vary so much also, with life events…

Seinfeld detractors are philistines

Simple as that,

LOL

Father Ted :love:
My favourite episode was “When God Created Women” when the famous author Polly Clarke came to stay. The Mrs.Doyle scene where she criticises the author’s books was hilarious. :joker:
.....and the episode where the boring Priest was struck by lightning....lol

:laugh2:

…see, that was another series that I loved because of some relatable things in it…I knew so many Mrs Doyle’s that just wanted to feed you every time you visited and even though I never drank tea, I always told that…’you’ll have a little cup a tea, though…g’wan, just a small one…’…:laugh:….Im not sure that I knew any Father Teds but I did know some priests that were quite eccentric in their character….I love Father Dougal because he’s just such an innocent…such a pure soul…:lovedup:…

OMG

Two of my most hated tv series are Father Ted and Only Fools and Horses !!!


British sit coms are the non league to the far better written/acted/produced US sit coms who are in effect the Premier League even Champions League level

That's such an Irish thing, to ask multiple times if someone wants something to eat or drink :laugh:

Father Ted is Irish, excuse your cheek. written by two Irish men and acted by Irish actors

Made me laugh :laugh:

Forgive my ignorance..

I have never gotten my head around all the United Kingdom, British Isles , Great Britain malarkey ..

My point is that US comedy is far better than all of the above .

…of course, I have a huge ensemble of Irish relatives as dad was from a large family…and it was also to the extent that my mom and dad would ask me every time as well if I would have a cup of tea…even though I’d never ever accepted a cup of tea from anyone ever, I didn’t like tea at all…

Eh? We're not part of the UK or Britain, we're our own country bloody hell

Still though, you might change your mind........... :hehe:

…:laugh:…and if I did, just for that feel good thing for the person offering etc…?…the next time it would be two cups of tea…we know that’s the truth of it…if I did change my mind, it wouldn’t stop there…

Everyone one knows tea is a gateway drug, next you'll be having cake

…:laugh:…I often get the raisins and the cocaine mixed up as well…it’s an easy mistake to make …

What TV series are you currently watching/following?
 

Well it’s still dreadful imho !!

Nothing comes close to the yanks for comedy programs/ series

Stand up humour is a completely different conversation of course

You are incorrect I'm afraid

That’s the whole point. They’re intentionally pretty despicable, selfish people with a distinct lack of morals, self-awareness and dignity. :joker:

In your opinion.. of course

I’ve finally gotten around to watching Mindhunter on Netflix. Half way through season 1.

Just… Incredible. I can’t believe they stopped after just two seasons.
