I haven't seen the rest of Angry Boys after the first 2, but I loved Summer Heights High.

I watched a re-run of Shooting Stars yesterday, from 1976,

No you didn't. Shooting Stars first aired in the early 90's.

The bbc comedy output is shite at the moment. There's some good stuff coming out of America at the moment. It's always sunny in philladelphia, Community and the american office - all very very funny shows which you are doing yourself a diservice if you have not seen them

I watched a re-run of Shooting Stars yesterday, from 1976, it was still hilarious and was the best thing on by a mile at about 6.00pm last night.
Shooting Stars? The one with Vic & Bob? If so, where the fuck do you get 1976 from?

I've tried getting into that, but I find it more irritating that funny. Larry Davids "oooh i'm jewish and angry and fed up about everything" shtick just gets annoying after a while

I find Modern Family to be very tolerable on the whole. Some annoying bits but generally well written and acted.

And as for Sofia Vergara....

the american office -



I've watched the American office. It's not bad, a few giggles and quite enjoyable.

The comedy is too choreographed for my liking though, the original office is so subtle that you are still noticing new stuff at the third time of watching. Yet utterly hilarious the first time around.
