Is it just me, or is this in a foreign language?

I'm tired and missed out the capitals. Taskmaster, Brooklyn 99, Angie Tribeca and Not going out are all comedies.

 

Unless you're French then yes it is in a foreign language. ;)

I wasn't having a poke, gdh, I've just never heard of these shows.

 

Getting old, by the looks of it!

 

Edit: Not going out is a classic. The others threw me.

Haha, my mistake. I read my post and realised it made no sense if you didn't know which parts were series and thought you meant that. 

 

And, yes, the first few series of Not going out were really good. Taskmaster is celebrities doing stupid challenges but better than it sounds and Angie Tribeca is like a hot shots, naked gun etc.

are there no red dwarf fans here???

 

 

modern comey is for the most part fairly pants and i still watch the good old programs like porridge, bottom, blackadder, are you being served, yes minister, only fools and horses, the vicar of dibley, dinnerladies, ab fab, allo allo and of course red dwarf... 

 

modern stuff would have to include QI, live at the apollo, a question of sport (it depends who's on of course), graham norton again depending who's on.

Love the Original Red Dwarf . Not so keen when they changed producers / set / format or what ever it was that changed .

I think brass eye is my favourite & also the other chris morris involved shows up to Nathan Barley, stuff hes done work for after that less good.

 

Also  monty python

 

Father Ted &  Alan Partridge Red Dwarf The office also good.

 

Panel shows: Never mind the buzzocks used to be good, & have i got news for you  was good  but gone  abit rubbish now.

 

Can't think of more recent stuff I like much.

 

Not sure why they keep showing dads Army on telly never thought it was that good compared to some others like blackadder Faulty towers etc.
