Agreed. A very different show to its progenitor but unquestionably funny nevertheless.Quote:

Personally, I think their radar is way off. It is perhaps to be expected that several solid rather than brilliant British programs (mini-series included) found their way to the top end of the list. And I can deal with The Sopranos at #1. The real crime, however, is The Wire at 14. One of the major creative achievements of the last 25 years, period. And it gets rolled by Queer as Folk for christ's sake. And no Deadwood. Pfft. Philistines.
I must say that I am shocked that in whole thread nobody mentioned Only Fools And Horses!
Also, who likes shows about mafia - leave lousy and unreal Sopranos (I really don't understand how could someone after watching The Godfather triology watch that crap) and try to look for Brigada, series about Russian mafia; much more realistic then The Sopranos.
lol, Coronation Street.Quote:

I caught an episode the other night. The guy was in a desert somewhere, eating spiders and generally getting his Daniel Boone on.Quote:

And what about Pride and Predjudice - the Colin Firth one?
Scenes from a Marriage and Carnivale. Curb Your Enthusiasm was a great series, but they lost the dynamic in the finale season. I like the American Office better than the original, but they seem to be milking it nowadays. I have to give Gervais and Merchant credit for moving on after two seasons (series). I did enjoy Extras and I have to admit that I watched it more for Merchant as Darren Lamb than anything else, but it had a great comedic dynamic all around.
There's a great one with Will Ferrell. I have only seen maybe three eps, but yeah, it's a good show. (apparently there is 'a bit' of editing or staging or whatever, and that caused some controversy--but he is pretty hardcore, and the controversy was maybe overdone in the big scheme of things...).Quote:

Oh, I haven't thought of Le Femme Nikita for quite awhile. I loved that show...or perhaps it was just the character of Michael I loved. :pQuote:

Has anybody watched Von Trier's Riget?
Oh, that is such an amazing film! Among my favorites of Bergman's.Quote:
