Need a new show, any suggestions?

Talk about just about anything else that is non-gaming here, but keep it clean

I second flight of the conchords :D. One of the best comedies i've seen in a very long time.
If you like this show, also be sure to check out The Mighty Boosh, similar premise but 100x more weird.

I feel the exact same way... strange.

Just watch Talking Classics.

Do we not have a general "this isn't about video games and I need a suggestion about something" thread?

Oh well, to be helpful, you can never go wrong with Fawlty Towers.

Not sure...I haven't seen it if we do. I think the general "whatever this is about" threads are getting a little out of hand. Does every single post need to fall into a preset category lump thread? When they end up getting merged they are generally impossible to make sense of anymore.

Indeed, John Cleese at his finest. Err, worst. Well, you know what I mean. As for another older suggestion, Black Adder. I'm a little 'meh' on season one occasionally, but the later ones, especially season 2 are excellent. The Prisoner or Danger Man (Secret Agent) for some helpings of McGoohan.

UK Office, I've not watched much of the Stateside Office, which I assume is tripe as you Yanks seem to be all barse-ackward in your televisions (save 24). Srs, UK Office (I'm American) it's just a really touching, funny story. Very touching, very sad.

Black Adder is a delight.

I hold a Fawlty Towers marathon at least twice a year, and it never gets old, just better.

Probably doesn't classify as a "show", but I'm a proud owner of several seasons of Columbo.
It's a perfect detective show, and it has aged really well, because the style seems fitting. And Peter Faulk is just amazing, on and off screen. You send him a letter, and wait for a while, you'll receive an autograph.

I am a giant Python fan, and have lots of love for FT as well as anything else Python-related in any way. My favorite episode is "The Germans" - what's yours?
