At my age, I don’t care much for shows which are about 20-somethings learning how to live life. We turned on **House of Cards** which I mentioned earlier in this thread, but never got truly started.

> [@Smid](#): > > By that time in the UK that sort of comedy had gone VERY out of fashion, and it was alternative comedian and comedies from the likes of Fry and Laurie, French and Saunders and Ben Elton. Not sure what you mean by “style”, as the writings of PG Wodehouse along the same lines remain popular and indeed this series overlapped with Fry and Laurie starring in the popular _Jeeves and Wooster_ in the same time period. _You Rang M’Lord_ ran between 1988 and 1993, _Jeeves and Wooster_ between 1990 and 1993. Both were set in approxmately the same time period around the late 20s. As a big fan of PG Wodehouse I greatly enjoyed _You Rang M’Lord_ because I could appreciate many of the nuances of the relationship between the servants and the idle nobility that employed them. Ironically, I never really enjoyed _Jeeves and Wooster_ because in my mind the series just never achieved the impossible task of matching the brilliant wit of the original stories. I think the real difference between the two series is that Wodehouse was always thoroughly lighthearted and even the worst of his characters was guilty of nothing more than being stingy or grumpy. Whereas in _You Rang M’Lord_ we have (for example) Lord Meldrum who is having an affair with the wife of a fellow peer, a butler who is constantly pilfering Meldrum’s wine cellar and doing anything else he can to steal from him, a cook who always makes too much food for the family (“you never know when unexpected guest may arrive”) so the servants can dine in splendour, the footman James Twelvetrees who has fully bought in to the mythos of the aristocracy and considers them his “betters”, Lord Meldrum’s daughter Poppy who constantly teases James by flirting with him, etc. I think the series is very funny but I can see some viewers being put off by the fact that basically none of the characters are likable. Well, except maybe Ivy the naive simple-minded maid, hilariously portrayed by Su Pollard who had a similar role in the preceding Croft and Perry series _Hi-de-Hi!_. ---

> [@wolfpup](#): > > Not sure what you mean by “style” If you aren’t clear on this, I’m not really sure why. The ‘style’ of those writers (Dads Army, Are you being served, Allo Allo, Hi de hi) are the mainstays of the late 60s and early 70s. They often rely on innuendo, comedy homosexuality, ‘The vicar/boss/some other stuffed shirt’ scenarios along with the ‘I overheard a conversation and misinterpreted it’ tropes. It’s the comedy of the people older than us (and as you can see from the timing of the years, still continued after alternative comedy hit). But frankly, it was bloody awful to me and everyone from my generation. After the young ones, the whole comedy taste changed for the youth, I can’t say I’ve watched one of those shows since 1985 (perhaps caught a little of Dads Army once in a while, but that wasn’t the worst offender). Out of fashion with anyone under 40 at that time. Which was the major viewing audience in the UK. (BTW, I never watched a single episode of Jeeves and Wooster with Fry and Laurie, it wasn’t my thing. I enjoyed them in pretty much everything else they did, and they were pretty much in the forefront of alternative comedy then, but not that). So I can’t compare those to Jeeves and Wooster, but I can say that series is pretty much an outlier of the comedy stuff then, and was produced by ITV, a channel which gave up comedy in all forms around then with the end of Spitting Image, and things like Men Behaving Badly moving to the BBC after the first season with Harry Enfield. I also do understand that people not from the UK might not understand this case, but there’s so much excellent comedy not of that style produced in around those 20 years, the Croft and Perry stuff was forgotten. Even the likes of my mum didn’t watch them anymore around then. (Such series as Young Ones, Filthy Rich and Catflap, Blackadder, Fry and Laurie, Fast Show, French and Saunders, Comic Strip Presents, Men Behaving Badly, Red Dwarf, Father Ted, Alas Smith and Jones, Alexi Sayles Stuff, Man From Auntie, Big Train, Blue Jam, Brass Eye, Friday Live, Saturday Live, Spitting Image, Who Dares Wins, Alan Partridge, Day Today, Drop the dead donkey, Fist of Fun, This morning with richard not judy, Goodness Gracious me, Harry enfields stuff, Murder Most Horrid, Nightingales, Punt and Dennis, Mary Whitehouse Experience, Rab C Nesbitt, Absolutely, Seans Show, Smack the pony, New Statesman, This is David Lander, Whoops Apocalypse, and I’m sure I’ve missed about 40 odd shows in this list too). ---

They often rely on innuendo, comedy homosexuality, ‘The vicar/boss/some other stuffed shirt’ scenarios along with the ‘I overheard a conversation and misinterpreted it’ tropes. Thank you for your insight on this. You may indeed be correct, at least in some respects. In the specific case of _You Rang, M’Lord?_, I guess I’m so deeply immersed in the culture and times evoked by PG Wodehouse, my favourite author, that I’m always going to enjoy it. I also have to say that, again for this specific show, I disagree with what I take to be the implication of outdated and tasteless jokes about homosexuality. In this show, yes, the elder daughter Cissy is clearly a lesbian, but note that in this crazy family she is the only sensible and level-headed one. She is kind to the maid Ivy, gives her some of her old clothes that she knows Ivy cannot afford, and advises her in difficult situations. She is kind to the servants in general, and in a family whose aristocracy naturally makes them politically conservative, shocks her father when she stands as socialist candidate for the local council because she cares for the common people. How is that offensive? Her sexual preference makes for two running jokes; Lord Meldrum frequently berates her for her choice of clothing style, apparently oblivious to the fact that his daughter is gay, and the staff frequently advising Ivy, when going into Cissy’s room, not to linger. Again, nothing offensive or dated there, IMHO. Now that you mention it, I do see some elements of that in _Are You Being Served?_. One of the salesmen is an exaggerated caricature of a gay stereotype, and that definitely wouldn’t fly today. There’s also the octogenarian store owner who surrounds himself with beautiful young assistants, which today would be considered creepy. FTR, I believe _Dad’s Army_ is often considered the best of Croft and Perry but it’s just not for me. I watched one or two episodes and gave up on it. > [@Smid](#): > > (Such series as Young Ones, Filthy Rich and Catflap, Blackadder, Fry and Laurie, Fast Show, French and Saunders, Comic Strip Presents, Men Behaving Badly, Red Dwarf, Father Ted, Alas Smith and Jones, Alexi Sayles Stuff, Man From Auntie, Big Train, Blue Jam, Brass Eye, Friday Live, Saturday Live, Spitting Image, Who Dares Wins, Alan Partridge, Day Today, Drop the dead donkey, Fist of Fun, This morning with richard not judy, Goodness Gracious me, Harry enfields stuff, Murder Most Horrid, Nightingales, Punt and Dennis, Mary Whitehouse Experience, Rab C Nesbitt, Absolutely, Seans Show, Smack the pony, New Statesman, This is David Lander, Whoops Apocalypse, and I’m sure I’ve missed about 40 odd shows in this list too). I don’t know how many of those made it across the Atlantic, but despite being someone who likes British comedy I’ve only seen two of that list, _Blackadder_ and _Father Ted_. Both were pretty good, and I might even watch _Blackadder_ again though I have no immediate yearning to do so. I quite enjoyed _Father Ted_ but it didn’t seem to hold up all that well on a second viewing, the problem IMHO being that it’s just a bit too over-the-top. If we’re going to have a comedy about vicars, I much prefer _The Vicar of Dibley_. FWIW, here’s my list of my favourites of the British sitcoms I’ve seen on my side of the big pond. They’re in alphabetical order with no attempt to rate them, but I will say that _Fawlty Towers_ is so far above them all that it’s in a class by itself. I’ve mentioned re-watching some series several times, but as befits its extraordinary status, I’ve watched _Fawlty Towers_ so many times that I practically have the scripts memorized! My favourite old British comedies: Allo Allo, Blackadder, Father Ted, Fawlty Towers, Hi-De-Hi, Only Fools and Horses, The Vicar of Dibley, Yes Prime Minister, You Rang M’Lord? – and a runner-up, Oh Dr Beeching. ---

Just a reminder for fellow fans of _Evil_ that the much-anticipated fourth series which was delayed by the strike is now underway. Three episodes have so far been aired. The last and final episode will air on August 22. This is supposedly the final series, which will have a record 14 episodes. Personally, I can’t deal with the weekly rationing so I’m waiting until the end of summer and then plan on re-watching Season 3 to refresh my memory and then binge-watch the final fourth season. Honestly, I think the creators would appreciate that. The weekly doling-out isn’t their choice and totally interrupts the atmosphere each episode creates. ---

Well, ok, back to the starting point, as I said, half of these went seriously out of fashion at the time. So it’s not usually being lack of success, they’d just had their day. Yes Prime Minister is kind of unique, so not the same, Blackadder and The vicar of dibbley is cowritten by the same writer, Richard Curtis, who went on to do those British Films (Four Weddings and a Funeral, Nottinghill, Love Actually), but Vicar of Dibley did sort of stride the alternative comedy/old school with Curtis and Dawn French being one of the main performers of alternative stuff. Father Ted is actually Irish, though it was a big hit on UK Channel 4 when broadcast. Only Fools and Horses did span the two, but it was sort of dying out as a main series around mid 80s, with only a few specials left to show, but is not regarded as the same as the Are You Being Served style, so still sort of a classic in that sense. You might want to check out a lot of others, which are more that style: George and Mildred, Man about the house, Robins Nest, The good life, Porridge, On the buses, Last of the summer wine (lasted decades though), Some Mothers do have them, To the manor born, Open all hours and Terry and June. There are a couple which have dated so hard because of racism, Mind your language and Love thy Neighbour, along with the shows with Alf Garnett (Till death etc). The latter, though, often show the racist being stupid, and the abused being stoic and suffering, so kind of acceptable, the language often really isn’t nowadays. There are others of this time which did stand the test of time, and are more classics like Fawlty Towers: Agony, Butterflies, Steptoe and Son, Butterflies, Reginald Perrin, Citizen Smith, Only when I laugh, The liver birds, Rising Damp and Shelley (some would argue The good life and Porridge should be in this list, but I digress). Occasional ones from the 90s do match the last category again, and I’d put the solid One foot in the grave. I’d say you’ll love a lot of the stuff in the list I put up first, but I’d mostly hate it. The Fawlty towers type list, you will probably love, and I’d probably still like. ---

_Porridge_ is definitely still worth watching, mainly for Ronnie Barker and Richard Beckinsale (father of Kate), who are both excellent in it. _Only Fools and Horses_ is one of my all time favourites. Some of the more well-known clips from it were posted on SDMB recently but aren’t really representative of the programme as a whole (the chandelier scene, Batman and Robin, Del falling through the bar). It was always less about slapstick and more about clever banter between the brothers and devious scheming. ---

> [@iamatractorboy](#): > > _Porridge_ is definitely still worth watching, mainly for Ronnie Barker and Richard Beckinsale (father of Kate), who are both excellent in it. Co-signed. More Ronnie Barker in more “old-fashioned British sitcom” style includes Open All Hours and Clarence. The limitations of the conventional-gags-and-prejudices core of these comedies are apparent, of course. But IMHO there is always some beautifully nuanced more original funniness in the dialogue and acting, especially Barker’s, that makes them rewarding to watch. YMMV of course! ---

> [@Smid](#): > > If you know it’s not great (not well executed) then not so bad, it’s the 9 years of red herrings, misleads and other such things to have led us up the garden path to just spend about the last ten minutes on the reality… Yeah, the show is not only _called_ ‘How I Met Your Mother’ it’s literally the entire framing conceit of the show, and the Ted character starts the story out years before meeting the mother and tells his kids basically his entire sexual history, none of which as far as I could tell had anything to do with the actual mother meeting. Considering he was a college professor, you’d think his editing skills would be a little more on-point. Also, good for him that he was getting work, but I always wondered why Bob Saget needed to be the ‘old Ted’ narrator, ‘Wonder Years’ style. Unlike WY, the younger version of the narrator character was already an adult-- I don’t think one’s voice changes _all_ that much from one’s 30s to one’s 60s, unless you’re a heavy smoker or something. ---

I do get they are going for the zanier 30 Rock vibe, but some of it is just not hitting for me. I did like the montage of them singing “pro male” songs like, “Sometimes Girls Lie!” or the song about “only being mad at the other girl” when he cheats on you. Even their unfortunate 9/11(ish) song was pretty humorous. Bad luck it released on September 10. ---

Paula Pell is definitely older, but her character is supposed to be generally the same age as the other girls (as you can see in flashbacks).
