“You’re going to have to promise me that when we have our talk you’ll make an effort and try to listen when you’re not actually saying anything.”
[Richard]“More Christmas cards? Are the genuine, or are they more of those you’ve written to yourself?”
[Hyacinth]“I regard it as a service to those people who may have misplaced my address. I’m sure they’d like to think they sent me a card.”
Did you ever get the impression that the feelings between Richard and Elizabeth were more than just neighborly?
I’m sorry. I am embarressed and ashamed to be part of a nation that produced this abomination of a situation comedy and remain completely perplexed by its popularity stateside.
it is the worst programme ever.
Have you not realised that its the SAME JOKE every week?
well, different strokes I suppose.
now the world don’t move, to the beat of just one drum…
You have to remember that the USA is the country that produced “Three’s Company,” “The Beverly Hillbillies,” and an incredible number of shows that are much worse than those two.
Speaking of shows that are much worse than “Keeping Up Appearances” . . …
We sent you Jerry Springer in retaliation.
[Nitpick alert]
Actually, we (USA) developed “Three’s Company” from their (England’s) “Man About the House”.
And by the way, I happen to LIKE “Keeping Up Appearances”. 
My! I shall have to bring out my Royal Doulton with the hand painted periwinkles!
Best part about that show is that Hyacinth is in fact my own mom, who loves the show and makes fun of it without knowing it’s actually about her.
b.
I just like it 'cause it’s British
OH yes. It is the same joke week after week. And the woman who plays Hyacinth’s neighbor is the worse actress I’ve ever seen.
And I did eventually get bored with the same jokes and I stopped watching, but at first it was hilarious.
A related question…
Which of the characters are you the closest to?
Welcome to our “Baywatch” hell.
I love “Keeping Up Appearances”…
and actually, I am surprised they haven’t ripped it off to do an American version.
Now if you will excuse me, I have to get ready for my candlelight supper. Sheridan and his new friend, Christopher Lowell, are arriving soon to help me redesign my curtains.
Probably Rose. Only waaaaaay better looking and far less slutty.
Onslo Onslo Onslo.
Gotta love a UK man that wears NFL T-shirts!
