The Big Bang Theory

You are not human! I was made to suffer through an entire episode of that monstrosity a couple of months ago and I never laughed, not even smiled slightly. There was nothing funny in it at all!

monty python and shame on anyone who thinks otherwise

Shame on me then, I guess.
They did some great comedic works, sure.
But they didn't only have hits, they also had a lot of misses, at least in my opinion.
Now, if you said, say, Life of Brian or Monty Python and the Holy Grail, I could agree with you. But not everything they did was as great as these examples.

Why does everybody forget the Spanish Inquisition?

Because nobody expects it. That's why. Their main element is surprise, surprise and ruthless efficienc.....

My favorites are, in no order:
Monty Python's Flying Circus
Red Dwarf
Black Adder
Faulty Towers
Black Books
Spaced
Arrested Development

The Boosh is awesome! I love the series' and I'm hoping to see them live soon...
