along the same lines, other great BBC series:
Good Neighbors
Jeeves and Wooster
Bless Me Father
Rising Damp
and of course,
Fawlty Towers
BBC Top Gear. It’s a car show, but it’s still funny. Called a Renault just like the French, a bunch of surrender monkeys, because the car would suddenly break loose in a curve. And of course all the humor surrounding the Stig and their various little projects like building amphibious craft and a Reliant Robin space shuttle.
