RE: [TV Discovery] The Fast Show

I'm surprised no-one asked to be honest!

Sounds very similar to my household in the early 90s to be honest! Although I think my TV was black and white still but anyway...

Ah, I've often wondered if those kinda things aired in the US. I know Monty Python is fairly international, but Benny Hill? Wow, that's a bit before my time too! Now that I've said that, I just went to look it up and the Benny Hill Show didn't stop until about a year before his death in 1992. I see Benny Hill references in american shows a lot, but honestly, I don't think I've ever seen it, nor could I tell you what channel it aired on. Did you ever watch any of the Carry On... movies? Very similar comedy style, really quite funny too.

I am such a big fan of Monty Python, must have watched the series and movies at least a dozen times at this point. I've only recently started watching some of Terry Gilliam's movies like Brazil.

I haven't thought about Keeping Up Appearances for years! Ha! I did enjoy that one, and there's another one from the same period, One Foot In The Grave. If you ever see that one, it's worth trying. The BBC have made some really quality programming over the years.

Have you seen the Royle Family? If not, I think you might enjoy it. It's about a working class family in Manchester, but it's easily one of the smartest comedy shows ever. Similar in a way to King of the Hill, just not animated, in the sense that it's highly relatable.

Let me know if you do use the #tvdiscovery tag, I'll make sure to give your post a boost!
