Peep Show, Only Fools, Keeping Up Appearances and Friends are the first which spring to mind.

I can't believe no one's mentioned "Are You Being Served?" It's HILARIOUS.

I was just having a light hearted bit of banter. I agree that it's not terrible, it's hardly the best sitcom either.

I haven't watched it right through, but have probably seen most episodes at some time or other. Which character in it are we supposed to like or relate to is what I don't understand.

I don't think it's always necessary to relate to any so I couldn't tell you Alf!

Although, very often the lady in the wheelchair felt like the only "normal" in a town full of crazies, so maybe her.

I've had a change of heart, I'm currently giving Absolutely Fabulous another watch, and I was wrong to say it's rubbish, It's actually very good, I've been laughing loads.

I think I just didn't get it on first viewing, but watching again, I get it now and understand the characters more.
