Re: Worst TV sit Com ever.....

Going on from the previous thread on Watching and the debate on some dubious sit coms thought I'd start an obvious one....

I would list said

AB_FAB
Two Pints etc
Game On
My Family
2.4 Kids
The one where Bruce Forsyth took over from the recently deceased Leonard Rossiter(set in a super market)
Butterflys
Squirrels

the blue touch paper has been lit....

I'd go along with that, I used to like Game On when it was on, but have tried to watch it again and boy is it ****.

I'd also throw in
Birds of a Feather
Terry and June
The Upper Hand

The Good Life......

Tom Good (Richard Briers)
Barbara Good (Felicity Kendal)

With Margo and Gerry I think that was them,that's got to be the worst sitcom of all time.................

How could I have forgot My Hero followed closely by Father Ted.

A couple of others( i cant recall the names) but Paul O'Grady in a bingo hall and the late John Inman in a Pickle Factory? awful is to good for them.

Father ted was/is great, ....agree with you on my hero

Grace and Favour... the disasterous follow on from Are You Being Served.

Took the words right out of my mouth! But I would also say that 'Are You Being Served?' was not much better either.

Well found out Daz....rock/pickles whats the difference. Green Green Grass never seen it but spin offs rarely work? The Gaffer with him off heart beat another fun fest...not!

"Feck off,Cup!"

Classic!

Pedro, the Inman sitcom was Odd Man Out, with Josephine Tewson..and it was a seaside rock factory,not pickles he inherited. it rings faint bells as it was Peter Butterworths last TV role

Re: Worst TV sit Com ever.....

Johnny Vaughn and Vernon Kaye punch till you drop Daz

[pedro]

Re: Worst TV sit Com ever.....

Nearest & Dearest was indeed set in a pickle factory and funny( must get a little hand on me watch) Inmans was similar seem, to remember him inheritating it from some relative?
Father Ted funny...get to feck!

Re: Worst TV sit Com ever.....

Thought of another....and its grim

the vile Johnny Vaughn in 'Orrible

it certainly was!
(that man has a face I'd never tire of punching )
