View original postI credited you too since I can't believe I forgot AbFab. I've certainly quoted it and used photos from it enough on Facebook. Your list is definitely much more British than American comedy. Do you find American comedy not as funny/too overt compared to British dry humor?

But yeah, besides what I wrote there, it's probably also a question of taste more generally. And not only in comedy for that matter - still thinking of my list for the other posts, but it would also include various British shows. In pop/rock music and television, I'd say it's the UK that leads the world, not the US (movies of course are another story).
