The thick of it should be higher. Car share at 3 :shocked:

Firewire 24-08-2016 05:00 PM

Diabolical

Car Share is rightly up there though

MB. 24-08-2016 05:05 PM

Where actually is Friday Night Dinner though

MB. 24-08-2016 05:05 PM

Also Nighty Night

Yeah everyone's trash in this country

Cal. 24-08-2016 05:10 PM

They're trash anyway

Pete. 24-08-2016 05:14 PM

Miranda and Twenty Twelve were robbed

Shaun 24-08-2016 05:47 PM

The correct top ten: The Office, Peep Show, Extras, Green Wing, The Thick of It, Psychoville, Gavin & Stacey, Getting On, Beautiful People and The Royle Family.

This is just British ones though... Parks & Recreation, 30 Rock, Broad City, Arrested Development, Futurama and American Dad! would all make the top 20 easily overall.

Always thought Black Books was 90s :shrug: And as much as I'm indifferent to Mrs Brown's, it's 200000000x funnier than Miranda which is the biggest disgrace to modern British comedy.

Denver 24-08-2016 05:47 PM

no Royle Family?

Agree with Psychoville. Surprised The League of Gentlemen was not in the top twenty.

Alf 24-08-2016 06:52 PM

As a connoisseur of the British sitcom, I find it disgraceful that Still Game isn't on that list.

I'm sure the Scottish member's who have seen it will agree.


Regarding The Royle Family and The League of Gentlemen, although they both did air in the 21st century, they both started in the 1990s, and looking at this list, it looks like sitcoms that began in the 21st century.

I agree that Psychoville should be in there, and other notable absentees from that list include Saxondale, The Mighty Boosh and Early Doors.


My top ten of the 21st century

1 Still Game
2 Peep Show
3 Early Doors
4 The Office
5 Peter Kay's Phoenix Nights
6 The Thick of It
7 The Mighty Boosh
8 Saxondale
9 Psychoville
10 Gavin and Stacey

I'd also like to put a mention in for 'Rev'

lewis111 24-08-2016 06:56 PM

Miranda is 7 places too low

Amy Jade 24-08-2016 06:58 PM

Mrs Brown's Boys is one of the worst programs ever.

Alf 24-08-2016 07:07 PM

'Toast of London' is another that should make the top 20

Mokka 20-09-2016 04:40 AM

Green Wing came on my Canadian Netflix this fall.. I have been watching it over the last couple of weeks... and I love it :flutter:

Jamie89 20-09-2016 09:12 AM

Mrs Browns Boys :umm2:

My top shows of those listed would be:
The Office
The IT Crowd
Peep Show
Green Wing

I'd also include:
League of Gentlemen
Royle Family
Psychoville

Gavin & Stacey (may just be my second favourite)
Miranda (I adore Miranda Hart :flutter: )
Outnumbered (great watch)
Black Books (it was funny)
Green Wing (still watching but love it so far)

!

I've watched a few episodes and I don't get the popularity, I didn't think it was funny at all

EspeonBB 20-09-2016 12:02 PM

The Office and Outnumbered though :clap2:

You should, it's my alltime favourite show and a young Graham Norton makes appearances throughout as Father Noel Furlong

The fact Peep Show isn't #1 is a disgrace

Oh and Father Ted is amazing :love:
