So funny his wife left him to ride the cock carousel until she hit the wall and decided to marry him.

I had no idea about this With the Jews, you lose.

Since someone mentioned 2DTV, does anyone remember a show that was an animated sketch show kind of like 2DTV, but edgy? I remember one scene where a lifeguard gets killed for being a pedo because he was wearing speedos but his hand was covering up the "s" leaving "PEEDO". There was another scene where a kid is at his dad's for custody time but acts like a kid with divorced parents until the dad does a flip off the building.

Even as a teen, I could tell it was pathetically tryhard. Does anyone else remember it? It was from the 2000s, I think.

To give a contribution. I was quite a fan of Green Wing when I was younger.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Bottom yet. I'll just quote what I said a month or two ago in another thread:

I don't usually watch British comedy, but after hearing the description for Bottom (from 1991-1995, not to be confused with some weird lesbian movie called Bottoms that came out recently), I watched it.

I love dark comedy and slapstick, so this was perfect for me. It's about two British people living on government welfare, one an alcoholic, one a sociopath, both hate each other and are massive perverts. It has the best slapstick outside of the three stooges, and tons of horrible dark comedy about how they treat each other, other people and society.

There's literally an episode in the third "series"/season about them trying to rob places during the yearly riots that happen during a parade. It's great, I legitimately recommend it.

No mention of Monty Python and Benny Hill?

That was Monkey Dust with its Paedofinder General sketches:

I find them funnier now than I did when they first aired.

Monkey dust is really hit or miss but I love how blairite it is

has anyone watched the new mitchell and webb show, its not that good theres some good sketches but the ones that drag really fucking drag, the one about sweary australian dramas really annoys me because what are they parodying? is there some influx of gritty australian dramas that I'm just out of the loop of? To be fair they always were hit or miss on their old sketch so I audibly groaned everytime numberwang came on. I get it it's nonsense can we go to the next sketch

I guess I can always just watch the good skits from that mitchell and webb look on youtube
