Wooster and Jeeves starring Fry and Laurie.
Reason enough to support PBS.
Not a sitcom either, but all the various Bits of Fry and Laurie themselves. Sometimes uneven, usually brilliant.
Thanks matt!!! I found the one I was looking for! Land of Hope and Gloria! Aaaah, I feel better now…I didn’t imagine it.
Also it reminded me that I had seen The Brittas Empire, so I have to heartily second that - as well as The Young Ones, Is It Legal? and Father Ted.
