It's the BEST BRITISH SITCOM poll!

Fuck, that closing date is obviously wrong. Can it be changed to two weeks from today?

blackadder II, innit?

How did you chose this list?

no On The Up no cred

First of many such posts I fear

you can't change a closing date.

i voted for father ted, of course.

but you'll have to start a new poll because there's no I'm Alan Partridge and Dom's about to descend with godly wrath.

there's no I'm Alan Partridge and Dom's about to descend with godly wrath.

God's about to descend with godly wrath

Rising Damp?

From the OFAH poll started by Dom, and the Britains Best Sitcom thread started 3 years ago, with a few newer ones thrown in. No science to it.

Alan Partridge & Rising Damp were both on the shortlist but didn't make the cut.

The Vicar of Dibley is a comedy?

Louis is right though, Ted it is. It's the only thing I can watch over and over again. Apart from Dad's Army. And Spaced. And the first season of Black Books.

Partridge didn't make the cut but AbFab did? Man, you're tough.

but 'the vicar of dibley' did ^_^

XPOST!!!!

EXTRAS???!?!?!?! ALL FOUR BLACKADDER SERIES SEPARATELY????!?!?!?!

jesus

Red Dwarf would've got more votes than half of these

You could have another poll with the ones that are missing from this list, another one: "Whatever Happened to the Likely Lads"

"Till Death Do Us Part"

xp to louis

yes although i agree all series were different I think the 'divide and conquer' aspect might come into play here and ill-favour the bladder voting public.

haha, this is true, ste, but surely increase the number of options to 28 in that case?

blackadder II, though. really. innit?

with ted hot on its heels.

Likey Lads & Whatever Happened.. were both considered. Most polls seem to end up with, like, 3 choices with 4+ votes, 20 choices with 1 vote, and 40 choices with no votes. Thought it would be more interesting this way. Obviously, some hard decisions had to be made. Beginning to wish I hadn't bothered.

I think I preferred Blackadder III

^^^

Blackadder I & IV = not good enough to be in a poll of best sitcoms

I think I preferred Blackadder III

just because of MacAdder amirite?

I liked Stephen Fry's Wellington

YOU MISSED OUT WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE LIKELY LADS!!???????

III was definitely the peak of their performance

god yes Wellington was a great furious character, Fry was fantastic.

"tea?"
"immediately"

Go here instead

Can this thread be locked?

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

i'm laughing already

Blackadder II, then Father Ted, then Blackadder III, then maybe One Foot In The Grave, then fucking daylight.

^^^ This guy knows comedy

Just watched an episode of Filthy Rich and Catflap. I'd never realised how incredibly riddled it was with bbc in jokes.

Has become terrible with age, but it had it's moments.

No, wait, I didn't see Porridge in there. Or a few others.

To tell the truth, I think I quickly scanned after I saw Extras on that list.

Extras wins the 'biggest slide in quality' poll. at least i went from loving it to hating it far too quickly.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

No Reggie Perrin, no credibility.

great poll guys

"britcoms"

3 people thought Ab Fab was better than Porridge, Blackadder and Dad's Army FFS.

haha what a spectacular disaster

3 people thought Ab Fab was better than Porridge, Blackadder and Dad's Army

Or they did what I do all the time and voted for some random button-pushing bollocks because polls are shite.

THAT'S HOW WE ENDED UP WITH EIGHTEEN YEARS OF THATCHER MAJOR TORY HELL

Pretty sure that's 29 years and counting.

more Filthy Rich & Catflap; the Trivial Pursuit/TVam episode is epic.

And there's an episode where Rick is contemplating doing a tv commercial, there is a mention of the Andrex puppy ad - which astonishingly Rick now does indeed do the voice over for. Amazing facts!

Rob Brydon claimed to be the voice of the Andrex puppy a while back.
