Yes, but it isn't a great comedy.

It isn't nearly as witty as people make it out to be, but it isn't awful, it's self indulgent nearly the entire show, which is both it's weakness and strength.
I never thought that it's was great comedy either it's more somthing you watch when theres nothing and I mean NOTHING else on
isn't that what ''friends'' is for?

I think the real question should be 'does any American here like The Mighty Boosh? Because that would be a feat in itself.

I personally never tried to get into it. I will sooner or later though, but I know people who think that show is the best thing since internet porn.

I like the Mighty Boosh, although it has gone slightly downhill since series 1. Series 2 was still pretty good but 3 was... meh. I saw the second tour of Boosh Live and that was awesome as well, mostly just because of the little 'improv' sections where they come out of character (improv is in inverted commas because apparantly some of these sections in Boosh Live are scripted).

To me it seems that the Boosh is a show for a very niche audience. The fans it has were established very early on and it isn't really very appealing to pick up and watch for people who don't know much of it.

I missed it first time around on TV, then bought all three series on DVD. I'm not gonna be one of those fanboys who defends it at all costs, but it's pretty good, gave me some laughs.

Don't make the same mistake that I made though - watching a whole series in one sitting will break your brain.

The Boosh is loose and it's coming at yo like a shark with knees.

(I'm a big fan of the Boosh, in case you haven't guessed :p)

I didn't think that much of it when I first saw it (somewhat late on I admit) but my girlfriend loved it so I persevered.

Now I really like.

Once you get to know the characters a bit, the banter is really amusing and the show in general is very creative. I went and saw them in Cardiff live, was very funny indeed!

Milky Joe FTW!

Thought the first series was amazing. Third series was short and stale, but I still enjoyed it somewhat. I'm kind of hoping there won't be a fourth; it seems to have run its course, really.

IT Crowd is a legendary show.

And I'd have some Noel Fielding any day.
