I hate Christmas , comedy dvd box sets ?
I really hate this time of year so try to get through it by watching as much comedy as possible
I have all of partridge , brass eye , black books , IT crowd , green wing , phoenix nights , father Ted , not going out ........porridge , rising damp etc from the old days
Any other suggestions ?
Coupling was well written , I will dip into that , the Welsh bloke in that was superb

Vice Principals. Not sure if you can buy the boxsets over here but if you know where to look you can get the downloads etc. Viciously funny, very dark comedy. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3766376/

I find that a bit forced , script let's it down
Only my opinion
Murder in successville was very good but it's not out on dvd , I know it's old but bo selecta used to make me laugh
Laurel and hardy is always worth a look at , what brilliant timing they had and of course the Marx brothers

Game On was a favourite of mine. I am one of the few people I know of who preferred the new Matt.

Try Eastbound And Down as well if you liked this. Equally as funny and wrong in many ways! http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0866442/

This should give you a good idea. It is very funny - which I don't often find with American 'comedy' shows.

Arnold Ridley, who played Godfrey fought at the Somme, got bayoneted, hit with shrapnel and was invalided out.
Then he joined up for WW2 and then joined the home guard in real life.

I've only just started watching 'Peep Show' on Netflix. For two posh annoying bastards it's dark, warped, very inappropriate but funny as fuuck.
Phoenix Nights is a staple for me mind.

Not sure if you can get a box set, but everybody loves Raymond is pretty good.

Probably

Re: I hate Christmas , comedy dvd box sets ?
Brooklyn Nine Nine is light hearted enough but it’s getting a bit cheesy in the current series.
The Mick is another US show I’ve been watching. Kaitlin Olsen (Always Sunny) is in that.
Check out My Name Is Earl. First two series of that were good.
If you want a bit more family fun Malcolm in the Middle is class.
BBC’s Cuckoo is good and gets better as it goes on. I think it’s got two new series planned.
I found Fleabag quite good for a new show. I think it’s had one series.

American comedy 'Raising Hope' was tidy (in my eyes anyway). Some of the characters were hilarious who would've definitely voted for Trump.

After a few beers and if I was bored she'd be worth a dabble.
