I am disappoint.

I'd like to apologize for the poor quality of the post above and sincerely hope you didn't waste your time reading it. Yes, I do feel bad about it.

XXXXXXX

I miss Sapphire and Steel


I sometimes watch it with my bootlegged digital copy, but I wish the series lasted longer.

I mean, really, how can you not enjoy this off Britain?

First time I enjoyed Time Paradoxes and Time Loops ... Really, the British have something with Time, a strange fetish I adore too.

I would add for British TV Comedy "Absolutely Fabulous".

I've also been sucked in by "Downton Abbey".

I like Rab C. Nesbitt too. "Rab C. Nesbitt, you're a born waster. On a good day, you can waste for all of Scotland!" But I could use some subtitles to make out that Scottish English. Smile

Also, Black Adder FTW!

I literally just downloaded Blackadder again the other day, so awesome!

Sherlock and Luther should be on this list. While they're relatively new, there's no denying that they're great television.

Yes Minister and Yes Prime Minister have been missed from the list of British comedy.

Sir Humphrey is, frankly Sir, a legend.

I'll add:

A bunch of other British stuff I like that escapes my mind. Except Cricket. I don't think even the British understand it.
