Fawlty Towers, brilliant.

The Marx Brothers, particularly Groucho, a comic genius. Catch him on YouTube hosting ‘What’s My Line’, absolutely outstanding comedy.

Dad's Army -best ever

Hi de Hi and Are You Being Served - had their moments

Allo Allo - excellent, often underrated

Blackadder- can't believe it's 40 years old, but still one of the best.

Allo Allo ?

Sort yourself out

Couple of unsung heroes.

The Brittas Empire & Dear John.

“Dear John” was underrated I think.
Red Dwarf was great.

They were alternative before alternative

Totally left field

Red Dwarf I would suggest is modern , alternative and bizarre in parts

Too zany to be considered old school

Jimmy Tarbuck ......absolutely talentless .....that's the angle

Re: Old School Comedy Yes Or No

Les Dawson .....bit dated but a talented guy

Dick Emery .....cross dressing superstar

One Foot In The Grave ......absolute crap

Rising Damp ......Great comedy actors , superb scripts

Only Fools And Horses .....never thought much of that

Keeping Up Appearances .....shoot anyone involved in that nonsense

Bread ......unfunny scouse cobblers

Porridge ......top stuff

Two Ronnie's........could drag on but had their moments , mastermind and hardware shop being the best

Man About The House ......rubbish but Paula Wilcox was worth watching

No Citizen Smith Sludge?

"Power to the people!"

Would've thought right up your alley.

Agree with the rest of you list.

Totally agree, one of the all time comic greats.

Dear John's a good shout. Rachel Bell's line "were there any sexual problems" always got a laugh. "it ain't half hot mum" was great but not PC to show these days.

Sort yourself out

The early series of Allo Allo were brilliant. Lost its way a touch at the end.

Re: Old School Comedy Yes Or No

To be honest Sludgey, your opinions on music are very suspect to say the least.
When it comes to comedy, your opinions carry even less weight.
You are better off slagging TLG, and supporting the meek.
