I like to see experimentation in programmes; in Spaced when they did a flashback, they did it with the characters in comic book format. Peep Show, has the whole inner monologue, contrasted against outer dialogue. I'm going to try to concentrate on what they are doing, rather than just the narrative. Haven't seen Community or Better off Ted, yet!

Pilot Fish, you MUST watch Community and Better Off Ted. They are brilliant. Particuarly Community. Community's big on experimentation, and 99.8% of the time it pays off. Honestly, try Community. Try it. Damn you.
Try Community.

Yeah, it's just that thing of being so far behind, plus I try to balance my viewing, from around world. I realise why I never got into Spaced; it's the flat, dingy and untidy. Peep show the flat is dull and boring. I feel like TBBT apartment is a pleasant place to be, lots to catch my eye and interest me!

This was a very funny French comedy series, they showed here a few years ago; 'Vous Les Femmes'. The second clip shows a woman who would be perfect for Sheldon!

Don't mess with the English language. I have been making some errors lately, but not going back and correcting them, they still bug me!

I really want to see another series of The Morgana Show. It contains some of the most eerily accurate impressions I've seen. She doesn't just impersonate Cheryl Cole, she IS Cheryl Cole.

I also remember enjoying the sharp writing on Will and Grace, for a while. I'd bring in new writers every few seasons.

Yes I agree, although she was an ex-porn star lush, and he was stuck in adolescent mode; they both had sharp wits, and we're compulsively honest about everything, except themselves(I'm starting to see why I'm drawn to certain characters, and stand up comics, now!). Honesty, is refreshingly funny!
And undoubtedly a little of this show fed into TBBT(Karen's voice).

I can't write today. Hence have retreated to Laphroaig and Spike Milligan.
This is about the level of my mental activity (and actual activity earlier, when I unearthed my marble collection...);
