steptoe and son was barely ever shown here..sandford and son still is on every day...actually cracks me up sometimes..totally racist shit they wouldn't get away with today on network tv
"drums and jerks are both too young to remember the first SNL season... "
I've seen some of the first season, it's pretty funny. I have always like the older snl. Anything from chris farley back has been good. Will Farrel was probably the last good actor for that show
i remember seeing an old british show where a black family moved into a white neighborhood.. no idea what it was called but i remember being shocked at the racist shit
"good neighbors"? nope, never mind, wrong show totally...
but, that little wifey on "good neighbours"... glasses and all...was/is the hottest brit chick ever...used to nip out on almost every show...
drums:
A)who the fuck is Will Ferrell?
B)who the fuck is Chris Farley?
...okay, just kidding, but seriously now - quit trying to compare Red Delicious Apples with Moldy Old Oranges...
*signs off, and plugs in the "Blues Brothers" again*
That is hilarious though..
It reminds me of some creature on the x-files that only comes out from hibernation once every three years to zing rish a few times... Thus gaining the self-confidence needed for another 3 years sleep only to awaken and zing rish again!!
Will special agents dik and possum catch him before its to late???
why are you retarded like that oranje? don't be such an asshole. if you think "americans" only like and understand one type of humor you're out of your mind.
it's true that the American office is becoming over the top. the first couple seasons were great but it seems like they've stopped developing the characters and it's becoming predictable. it's over the top now. but at least they don't have that sickly fucker jumping around on one leg and calling it "comedy"
It's all down to fucking your sisters and your mothers, thats why most Americans are moronic, inbread, retarded abomination of nature. Oh and the British (original) Version is far superior to that brainless peice of shit that is spewed out in the states.
why do you believe that all american people like what's on tv anyway? When I watched tv it'd only be on the voom network with Monsters HD and KungFu HD and now it's gone forever ;-;. My tv hasn't been on for weeks. I also thought the English Office clip was funny. I loved Spaced(Eddie Izzard > Ricky Gervais though), and I grew up watching Monty Python movies and the flying circus shows. I like your country but you're tarnishing it's appearance by acting like that. You make it seem like it's filled with giant douches just like yourself.
I would like to take a moment, since we are on the subject of whats funny and what isn't. Apparently I angered a few people at a super bowl party yesterday by pulling my dick out of my pants, as I am known to do when I'm drunk. I thought it was funny but quite a few others didn't. I had forgotten all about the incident they have not. They have no sense of humor I guess.
Haha.. Yeah, rish.. been there. I went to school partly in Gunnison, CO.. which may not mean much to you, but all there was to do was drink your ass off. More than a handful of people in that town have seen my "limp vodka dick" at a party...
i'd have to see a few episodes to really know if i like it...i submitted a short clip from the american office...michael scott and the ladies or something..
i don't care if the people here like it better ..i just want to laugh...however the american office is hilarious . steve carrel is so funny in it and the writing is great...can't both be funny?
dik, thebox.bz... send a msg to me and i'll get you an invite if you need one...
then you can watch:
the office
it crowd
the mighty boosh
garth marenghi's dark place
spaced
snuff box
jam
brass eye
two pints of lager and a pack of crisps ;/
no problem... another site you might want to check is tvtorrents.com, it pretty much has any tv show out there. both sites are ratio sites tho, so you'll have to seed for awhile once you dl.
It would probably amuse you even more, Hank, to reallise that the place it was set in (Govan) does actually exist, and there are many people / families that live there whichare just like the Nesbits, Rab especially.
I meant "the English" spoken in the show, you fucking retard.
Boy, you are a fucking major cunt. You are wrong from the get go and you keep yapping and flapping your gums. Stfu, you fucking annoying yappy little bitch.
It was ok. but i need more info.. so far ofcourse the american office is funnier.
some brit humour is good tho. like that one show where the 4 friends are couples or something. it might be called coupling.
and for Orange if you think brits humour is better cause it make syou think then myfriend i refer you to red dwarf! the awesomest show ever shat out of the brits anus.
the british the office is hilarious but you need to get to know the characters, its like spaced... its a good show but you need to give it a few episodes.. same with it crowd (although that generally has people hooked after the first show)
if you want to get the office uk version your best place to get any uk tv is thebox.bz if you need an invite send a contact on the site morph..
as far as being pleasant, i just about to spend almost a grand a month more to help get rid of the video problems... not sure if i should be happy or sad about that :p
Btw OJ...check out GSP's comments in the ESPN post-fight sitdown...quite funny. Oh, and he explicitly states his first loss to Serra made him change...and states it was no fluke. His equilibrium got fucked!
Yeah, Part of the plot is supposed to be where the rest of the crew 'rescue' Dave Lister from his current job as a cab driver on Cornation Street. Should be worth waiting for.
I wasn't really an avid Red Dwarf (RD thereafter) viewer. I have seen a number of episodes & liked them, but I never really planned to watch it, if you're picking up what I'm putting down....God, I'm so 'street'.
"look around you"
now that is a good example of dry humor... what a fucking good show it is tho... its a spoof of those old school science shows.. like "your friend the atom" etc
i highly recommend watching that if you havent
Sorry OJ...wasn't ignoring you. Just got back in from the lovely snow.
Here's a link to the post-fight. Quite interesting...they bring on all the winners, and have Florian and Mir co-presenting/interviewing. GSP comes close to the end...funny fucker as always.
PS...you're a lazy fucker for not finding it yoself, biotch!
http://mmablips.dailyradar.com/video/ufc_94_postfight_extra_espn_video/
It's really interesting actually. UFC is taking off exponentially. Dana White is one smart, smug, rich cunt.
Frank Mir v Brock Lesnar 2 coming up soon!! Haha. I love Mir...I hope he rips that fat WWE cunt's arm off this time...like he nearly did to that cocky redneck Sylvia. Shame Mir had that accident...he's not the man he was...but still great to watch. Lesnar doesn't deserve the chances he's had. That's Dana White for ya.
He brought the sport back from the brink. He made it what it is today. Fighters actually get paid now because of him and his organizations have set the standards for safety.
Douche! He's the Bill Gates of MMA. It's only because UFC has gone so global that fight purses have now become lucrative...it wasn't always so. He's a shrewd businessman and profiteer...not a philanthropist. Douche!!
Yup. Was speaking to you. I wouldn't go as far as to say I respect 'the guy', but his achievements are impressive. So long as you kjnow he's primarily in it for himself...and use to pay even the top fighters rather paltry amounts.
...only kidding. Fuck you Rish...
Dirty dish of rotting fish,
Stuffed under yo undercoat,
You came to fawn I live to gloat,
Daily at your frail demeanour,
I gots the dirt...now you's the cleaner,
Of my merry jungle balls,
One-man stalls,
Hurry up and shine them clean,
I wanna see them brightly gleam.
Into the night - talkin' bout a fight,
You flippin out your floppy bobbin,
In social places - that lipstick's throbbin,
Lookin like it's Maybelline,
Standin proudly - Irish queen,
But instead of gettin some sympathy head,
You ruined the party - and off to bed.
In all fairness Jerks...this was probably one of the shittest parts of any episode you could find. People here seriously need to watch a FULL episode...then they'll love it...America loved it enough to give Ricky Gervais more awards than Phelps on a crack pipe, and a lucrative career as a typecast character in about 25 movies...oh, and he (and Merchant) had a major part in the writing AND production of the US version. Much of it is identical...including the love story.
Spaced was great in its day.
Brasseye had its moments (check out the 'scandalous' 'nonce sense' episode.)
Coupling was really good (I didn't even know about it until my US wife got me into it).
Red Dwarf was pretty great at times...looks painfully dated now though, but I know a lot of Americans love it...a la Python cult status.
IT crowd...has a few good moments...as does 2 Pints.
Try earlier seasons of 'My Family' for a decent Brit sitcom, and definitely check out In Sickness and in Health with Alf Garnett for some classic bigotted/racist sitcom action they'd never allow these days.
In what way is Red Dwarf dated, Cruel? Proper funny never gets old. I'm with you on the Alf Garnett stuff though, that was a classic, risque comedy. They can't even show clips on daytime tv now.
i've seen all those shows but they were never on tv enough for me to see them..some mothers do ave em used to be on before fawlty towers and then monty python for a while here on saturday afternoons
Blackadder popped up on the other British comedy thread the other day - the earlier seasons were best, and maybe Goes Forth too. Mr Bean sucks dirty shitballs.
Yeah, shit...there's a few I've forgotten about. Just dunno how many of them are still watchable today.
LOL@keeping up appearances. I know a lot of Americans love that show. Very odd.
The main thing here though is that I think all these threads totally scupper anyone's belief that British comedy is 'shit'. It's not. There have been some absolute classics...but a definite dearth over recent years. Harry Enfield was great in his day. I don't think his new stuff works.
Little Britain/Little Britain USA has had a few good moments, also the League of Gentlemen. Wow, the list really is long.
Americans do their stuff well, and we do ours well...just most often, the crossover doesn't work...take the dreadful US version of Fawlty Towers, 'Payne'. Shudder.
League of Gentlemen wasn't really a comedy, it was just a freaky TV series with a million and one horror movie references, that you just had to laugh at because the alternative was crying. I still love it though.
you know what's a really bad show...mad tv..i'm sitting here about to go to sleep as my vacation is now over and the only thing on tv is fucking mad tv...do you people have any idea how bad that fucking show is? never...ever...funny
Comments to The Office (BBC)
American version>British version
No doubt.
I tried watching an episode of the British one on Netflix once, and it was the most boring shit I've ever seen.
I'm sure it was. Most of their stuff is boring.
The British version is dome with dry humour, subtle references & witty irony
The SAME WRITERS fill the American one with over the top nonsense that you idiots need to get the jokes.
It is that simple.
God I fucking hate you people.
british office is great, thats why its the UK's longest running series.. 1.2 seasons...
thats like MASH status over there
hey oj - remember "Steptoe & Son" ?
I would hate to be British.
The BBC begged for them to make more. They refused because they wanted to leave it on a high, like faulty towers.
Another difference between us, you lot milk the fucking shit out of your shows until people get sick of them.
Poss, I never really watched that show.
Golden rule for making a show in America:
KEEP IT SIMPLE!
Golden rule for making a British show.
Make it stupid and unfunny.
Oranje.. so right man.
American television knows nothing about showmanship.. (Seinfeld aside)
We love to be a dead horse raw, until it decomposes in the ground, and comes back reincarnated as a squirrel, and we starting beating that.
oj - i was just just checking, there WAS a brit show, way back, called Steptoe And Son?
I can never understand those fucking british accents with their "do you want a spot of tea" and "god save the queen"
American humour is way better and much funnier. Steve Carell is a comedic genius!
Yes Poss, there was. All I can tell you about the show is the fact that the two main characters hated each for real.
Drum, fuck off back to your cake cupboard.
lol that was pure hilarious, maybe if I made it dry like grandmother's cunt you would of found it funny
steptoe and son was barely ever shown here..sandford and son still is on every day...actually cracks me up sometimes..totally racist shit they wouldn't get away with today on network tv
drums and jerks are both too young to remember the first SNL season...
USA, filtered thru Canucks, trying to re-invent brit humour
If you want to see racism, I'll post some clips of our old shows.
They didn't have give it to black people back in the day.
*half
what i like about "sanford' is knowing that if was the "real" Redd Foxx, the entire 30 minutes would be one great big "bleeeep"
Haha.. possum!!
I own the first two seasons of SNL.. I'm bout to submit the first opening segment actually... Don't give it away....
"drums and jerks are both too young to remember the first SNL season... "
I've seen some of the first season, it's pretty funny. I have always like the older snl. Anything from chris farley back has been good. Will Farrel was probably the last good actor for that show
i remember seeing an old british show where a black family moved into a white neighborhood.. no idea what it was called but i remember being shocked at the racist shit
What about SCTV....?? now those was some Canucks trying to reinvent brit humor filtered with canuck humor, imitating american humor....
Example..
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=FF3iJ3EckMY
But thank god for Strange Brew and Canadian Bacon....
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=c_gN7zlpnz8
Is that the show you're talking about, dik?
"good neighbors"? nope, never mind, wrong show totally...
but, that little wifey on "good neighbours"... glasses and all...was/is the hottest brit chick ever...used to nip out on almost every show...
strange brew was terrible if i recall...however i'll tell you fucks a funny story about bob and doug mackenzie sometime ...but not now
hahaha ya oranje that's it...holy hell that wouldn't fly now
Golden rule for being irish.
Starve
Good stuff, dik.
drums:
A)who the fuck is Will Ferrell?
B)who the fuck is Chris Farley?
...okay, just kidding, but seriously now - quit trying to compare Red Delicious Apples with Moldy Old Oranges...
*signs off, and plugs in the "Blues Brothers" again*
hooo! Matt lurketh again!
here's a great big potato shoved up yer pie-hole, matt
mash it your own darn self
Strange Brew is hilarious. Especially when Hosehead the dog flies away.
itsthefag is like a 1rish1 stalker.
I'm not sure if I can techincally shove a potato "up" my piehole. I'll sure try though.
No, 1fag1, I'm not like a stalker. I am a stalker.
Hahaha... yeah, Strange Brew was terrible.. in that awesome sort of way...
That pretty much as "like a stalker" as it gets.
Goddamn.. thats all we need, is another rish groupie...
If I raped your wife, hypothetically, you wouldn't say, "He is like a raper!"
Check out his new avatar. Although I'm a bit confused. Who is 1irish1?
hahaha his avatar says i hate irish
hahaha awesome
Hey matt.. go stick a chopstick in your cock, and then go shove it up your ass and rape your own goddamn self.
he's too dumb to realize nobody can read it
He's too dumb to realize no one cares what he thinks.
i have no idea who he is so he might be important
jerks...very very good analogy...
ps - uh - oh....suddenly (at least on my old Dell)...matty's avy has gone to stalker heavan....
Nah I made it in photoshop and instantly saved as a jpged, no more editing.
Just to clear things up 1irish1= 1rish1
Everyone gets the point anyways.
What point?
?
the point is he hated you so much that it backfired and now he's gay for you
haaaay
Matt? i thought I was fucked up
butt then i found yuuuu!
...saving up your infantile hatred for rish for, like, four years?
yu is hi - larious
haaaaaayte
matt, I think we may have gotten off on the wrong foot. Lets start over and be friends.
Just kidding. Fuck you.
I hardly ever comment. I just get a rise out of 1rish1's remarks, so I try to get a rise out of him... If ya know what I mean.
Then you most certainly have failed.
"Just kidding. Fuck you"
Thats the kind of replies I'm talking about.
it's pretty gay to dedicate your avatar to him
*waits patiently for the money shot*
very gay
You consider that getting a rise out of me?
slurp...
hate = love...even i know that
Alright I'm done here. I'll go in hiding again for another 3 years. THE AVATAR REMAINS!
No one cares.
wow
You care...
* I LOVES MATTY *
that was easy
don't you want to argue more?
we're sorry
That is hilarious though..
It reminds me of some creature on the x-files that only comes out from hibernation once every three years to zing rish a few times... Thus gaining the self-confidence needed for another 3 years sleep only to awaken and zing rish again!!
Will special agents dik and possum catch him before its to late???
I think you are confused as to what constitutes a "zing".
why are you retarded like that oranje? don't be such an asshole. if you think "americans" only like and understand one type of humor you're out of your mind.
nice one for submitting this JS.
And everyones entitled to their opinion, unless you dont find this funny, in which case you're gay
I struggle to find anything with Ricky "Look at me, I'm good" Gervais in it. He's a jumped up conceited pile of shit. I hate the fucker.
it's true that the American office is becoming over the top. the first couple seasons were great but it seems like they've stopped developing the characters and it's becoming predictable. it's over the top now. but at least they don't have that sickly fucker jumping around on one leg and calling it "comedy"
oranje is just a butthurt fag
^ That's rich, coming from a guy with a body builder as an avatar.
Muscle envy much, fag?
It's all down to fucking your sisters and your mothers, thats why most Americans are moronic, inbread, retarded abomination of nature. Oh and the British (original) Version is far superior to that brainless peice of shit that is spewed out in the states.
You don't think the British are inbred? Your whole country is the size of Florida. No possible way any inbreeding has occured.
The country is smaller.....& so is the population.
Your logic is flawed.
British royalty is known for its rampant inbreeding. The rest of the populace can't be any different.
But since we are here, you see no flaws in ducksuck's logic?
Maybe in the southern states.
Your whole country has shitty teeth.
I don't, so that's wrong.
^^faggot
why do you believe that all american people like what's on tv anyway? When I watched tv it'd only be on the voom network with Monsters HD and KungFu HD and now it's gone forever ;-;. My tv hasn't been on for weeks. I also thought the English Office clip was funny. I loved Spaced(Eddie Izzard > Ricky Gervais though), and I grew up watching Monty Python movies and the flying circus shows. I like your country but you're tarnishing it's appearance by acting like that. You make it seem like it's filled with giant douches just like yourself.
the only thing i know for sure about americans is that the reason abortion was legalized was so they can all drink fetus blood
^that's what a fact
'cause most Americans on here are dumb, fact.
^^ oranje is a butthurt fag who has no idea what he's talking about, fact.
^dumb
^Fag
i like curb your enthusiasm best. no comment on that boring shit up there.
That show kicks ass
It is a good show.
LOL i love this shit...
probably entertainer third..
I would just like to say that I think the Trailer Park Boys is a fucking hilarious show.
Make sure you say Canadian before our British friends claim it as their own.
They'll probably say some bullshit about how they colonized the trailer park or something.
hahaha
I would like to take a moment, since we are on the subject of whats funny and what isn't. Apparently I angered a few people at a super bowl party yesterday by pulling my dick out of my pants, as I am known to do when I'm drunk. I thought it was funny but quite a few others didn't. I had forgotten all about the incident they have not. They have no sense of humor I guess.
I figured that most people who frequent Mucho have been refered to as "that guy" at some time or another. Thoughts on the subject?
there's something wrong with you
Getting your dick out isn't funny. I know a guy who does it when he is drunk too, it doesn't go down well.
In retrospect it wasn't a terribly bright move as I only knew a couple of people at the party.
hahahaha
Oranje left himself wide open for a dick sucking joke - "it doesn't go down well."
i can only imagine how uncomfortable i would feel for the 30 seconds or so it took me to get to the door
"If this is gonna be that kind of party, I'm gonna stick my dick in the mashed potatoes!"
*my knees
Damn you, Mako.
Haha.. Yeah, rish.. been there. I went to school partly in Gunnison, CO.. which may not mean much to you, but all there was to do was drink your ass off. More than a handful of people in that town have seen my "limp vodka dick" at a party...
Hahaha... Beastie Boys... Good one Mako.. where does that original clip come from?
http://mic-to-mic.blogspot.com/2007/06/mashed-potatoes-sample-revealed.html
i don't even pull my penis out around myself
*of Stan long enough to go to the beer store.
and the failbus has made an extra stop i see
Nice mako.. fucking Mantan... I figured that was just a myth or something... Didn't realize there had been so much speculation on the subject either..
Yeah, they put an extra driver on overnights.
My entire senior year of high school I wondered where it came from, JerkStore lol.
I bet those guys had so many awesome records to sample... I mean, if they got a hold of that one...
True, true. It's a fact that all the best beats and samples come from records that no one has heard before.
it'd be a lot cooler if noobs that use samples and "beats " from other established artists had their own talent
Using samples and beats takes talent. You couldn't do it, Dik.
uh oh, trouble in paradise
i'd have to see a few episodes to really know if i like it...i submitted a short clip from the american office...michael scott and the ladies or something..
Well, I'm sure most people here are thinking the american vers is better anyway, more relative...
Easier to follow if you're idea of wit is a fart joke.
Fucking Americas, I shit 'em.
*your ...I know, I know!
You shit their semen.
i don't care if the people here like it better ..i just want to laugh...however the american office is hilarious . steve carrel is so funny in it and the writing is great...can't both be funny?
Yeah... I will agree that both are funny.. definitely.
I tried to find the old series on the net for you, dik. I couldn't them all, just the odd ones.
How much would it cost to post shit out to Canada?
no idea at all
dik, thebox.bz... send a msg to me and i'll get you an invite if you need one...
then you can watch:
the office
it crowd
the mighty boosh
garth marenghi's dark place
spaced
snuff box
jam
brass eye
two pints of lager and a pack of crisps ;/
adult swim needs to bring back dark place.
Spaced was fucking awesome.
Brass Eye and Garth Marenghi were brilliant too
just sent you an invite to your yahoo dik
Hey Yak, can I get an invite?
Anyone remember Rab C. Nesbit? That was a funny show, but very hard to understand the English.
Rab C Nesbit? English? lol
psssst, he was overtly Scottish!
sure... i don't have many left tho.. sent to your hotmail
Nesbit was okay at the time, Nothing special. Definitely no place for it nowadays.
nesbit? thats odd.. we had a pub here called the nesbit.. i wonder if it had anything to do with that
thanks yak
no problem... another site you might want to check is tvtorrents.com, it pretty much has any tv show out there. both sites are ratio sites tho, so you'll have to seed for awhile once you dl.
I never said the show was English, did I, Oranj?
Of course I know it's set in Glasgow.
It was very novel to me at the time. Hence, it's humor value.
So why on earth did you say "hard to understand the English"?
& in my opinion, Nesbit sucked.
It would probably amuse you even more, Hank, to reallise that the place it was set in (Govan) does actually exist, and there are many people / families that live there whichare just like the Nesbits, Rab especially.
Ahhh Glasgow, knife capital of the world. Never used to like Nesbitt but I find it quite good now. A bit like Still Game
Because he was speaking ENGLISH that was hard to understand, you thick fuck!
So you meant 'his English', not 'the English'. Very different things.
...'but very hard to understand the Scottish' would have been correct & make sense.
...dumbass.
I meant "the English" spoken in the show, you fucking retard.
Boy, you are a fucking major cunt. You are wrong from the get go and you keep yapping and flapping your gums. Stfu, you fucking annoying yappy little bitch.
haha sure
Ha ha, you are a stupid fuck. I hope you die choking on your boyfriend's cock.
It was ok. but i need more info.. so far ofcourse the american office is funnier.
some brit humour is good tho. like that one show where the 4 friends are couples or something. it might be called coupling.
and for Orange if you think brits humour is better cause it make syou think then myfriend i refer you to red dwarf! the awesomest show ever shat out of the brits anus.
Hi-Larious!
That show was great. They used to have it on my PBS station back in the day. Followed by the Red Green Show which was funny at times.
the british the office is hilarious but you need to get to know the characters, its like spaced... its a good show but you need to give it a few episodes.. same with it crowd (although that generally has people hooked after the first show)
if you want to get the office uk version your best place to get any uk tv is thebox.bz if you need an invite send a contact on the site morph..
and by contact on the site.. i mean contact on this site to me :P
just sent you an invite to your yahoo morph.
Send me on too, please yak.
I must say, you're being very pleasant & helpful today. Had some good news or something recently?
you fucker!!!
invite sent to your hotmail.. AND THATS THAT!
as far as being pleasant, i just about to spend almost a grand a month more to help get rid of the video problems... not sure if i should be happy or sad about that :p
Btw OJ...check out GSP's comments in the ESPN post-fight sitdown...quite funny. Oh, and he explicitly states his first loss to Serra made him change...and states it was no fluke. His equilibrium got fucked!
You're right Morph, Red Dwarf is one of the best shows ever to come from here. I read today that they're making a two part special of it it.
Cheers, yak. Much appreciated.
Come on Cruel, we both know that is because of his almost self deprecating modesty. He is a fighting machine.
Isn't that special being commissioned by Dave?
Link me to that ESPN video please, Cruel.
Yeah, Part of the plot is supposed to be where the rest of the crew 'rescue' Dave Lister from his current job as a cab driver on Cornation Street. Should be worth waiting for.
*Coronation Street
I wasn't really an avid Red Dwarf (RD thereafter) viewer. I have seen a number of episodes & liked them, but I never really planned to watch it, if you're picking up what I'm putting down....God, I'm so 'street'.
I'll be watching the special though.
Red Dwarf was awesome uptill the last 2 series
I really can't wait for that 2 part special.
"look around you"
now that is a good example of dry humor... what a fucking good show it is tho... its a spoof of those old school science shows.. like "your friend the atom" etc
i highly recommend watching that if you havent
It is very good
oh and extras...
another ricky gervais show
extras i have seen quite a bit and always like it...not hilarious but a different funny..if you know what i mean
Sorry OJ...wasn't ignoring you. Just got back in from the lovely snow.
Here's a link to the post-fight. Quite interesting...they bring on all the winners, and have Florian and Mir co-presenting/interviewing. GSP comes close to the end...funny fucker as always.

Cheers
I did look, I just wasn't 100% on which you were talking about. Thought it best to get a direct like to make sure.
Yep, I needed that link. The clips I saw were on a couple of minutes long.
It's really interesting actually. UFC is taking off exponentially. Dana White is one smart, smug, rich cunt.
Frank Mir v Brock Lesnar 2 coming up soon!! Haha. I love Mir...I hope he rips that fat WWE cunt's arm off this time...like he nearly did to that cocky redneck Sylvia. Shame Mir had that accident...he's not the man he was...but still great to watch. Lesnar doesn't deserve the chances he's had. That's Dana White for ya.
Dana is the man.
1rish1 say: I wanna suck Dana white's penis.
CruelHM says: I wanna suck 1rish1's penis.
dana is a blowhard fucking prick... how anyone can respect that guy is beyond me.
He brought the sport back from the brink. He made it what it is today. Fighters actually get paid now because of him and his organizations have set the standards for safety.
If he hadn't pulled the UFC out of financial ruin and changed the publics perception of it then the sport would be nothing today.
Douche! He's the Bill Gates of MMA. It's only because UFC has gone so global that fight purses have now become lucrative...it wasn't always so. He's a shrewd businessman and profiteer...not a philanthropist. Douche!!
Are you speaking to me?
I hope not. I never said the man was a philanthropist but he is the one that created the business model for other promoters.
Yup. Was speaking to you. I wouldn't go as far as to say I respect 'the guy', but his achievements are impressive. So long as you kjnow he's primarily in it for himself...and use to pay even the top fighters rather paltry amounts.
Cruel, you realise that Irish was agreeing with you, right?
No. Omg. Oh shit, sorry Rish. I'm such a goofball sometimes. Thanks for pointing that out OJ.
...only kidding. Fuck you Rish...
Dirty dish of rotting fish,
Stuffed under yo undercoat,
You came to fawn I live to gloat,
Daily at your frail demeanour,
I gots the dirt...now you's the cleaner,
Of my merry jungle balls,
One-man stalls,
Hurry up and shine them clean,
I wanna see them brightly gleam.
Into the night - talkin' bout a fight,
You flippin out your floppy bobbin,
In social places - that lipstick's throbbin,
Lookin like it's Maybelline,
Standin proudly - Irish queen,
But instead of gettin some sympathy head,
You ruined the party - and off to bed.
Yeah, you aren't very bright.
That doesn't rhyme.
I don't even bother reading his pitiful excuses for rap.
Let's see you do it.
Man!
Brittish comedy is shit.
If I sat down and watched that for 30 minutes I'd turn in to those people from 28 day later.
Do so then
Don't let us stop you
In all fairness Jerks...this was probably one of the shittest parts of any episode you could find. People here seriously need to watch a FULL episode...then they'll love it...America loved it enough to give Ricky Gervais more awards than Phelps on a crack pipe, and a lucrative career as a typecast character in about 25 movies...oh, and he (and Merchant) had a major part in the writing AND production of the US version. Much of it is identical...including the love story.
Spaced was great in its day.
Brasseye had its moments (check out the 'scandalous' 'nonce sense' episode.)
Coupling was really good (I didn't even know about it until my US wife got me into it).
Red Dwarf was pretty great at times...looks painfully dated now though, but I know a lot of Americans love it...a la Python cult status.
IT crowd...has a few good moments...as does 2 Pints.
Try earlier seasons of 'My Family' for a decent Brit sitcom, and definitely check out In Sickness and in Health with Alf Garnett for some classic bigotted/racist sitcom action they'd never allow these days.
I was waiting for someone to bring up red dwarf, great series. smeg head
Also, try The Young Ones, and Bottom. Both oldish (especially Young Ones), but I think a lot of people here would like the humor.
I'm surprised noone has mentioned Peep Show yet.
Shame on you all!
In what way is Red Dwarf dated, Cruel? Proper funny never gets old. I'm with you on the Alf Garnett stuff though, that was a classic, risque comedy. They can't even show clips on daytime tv now.
Peep Show is a good show. Their bbc sketch stuff was pretty good too.
Spaced was genius in my opinion. Still enjoy watching it now, especially the Star Wars bits.
Coupling was worth watching just for the bits with Jeff in it.
IT Crowd is another program the Americans completly fucked up
no one's mentioned "are you being served", "black adder" (much funnier than mr bean) or "keeping up appearances". all old, but all funny
i've seen all those shows but they were never on tv enough for me to see them..some mothers do ave em used to be on before fawlty towers and then monty python for a while here on saturday afternoons
Still like Dads Army too. As well as the Likely Lads and Filthy Rich And Catflap
and what about " Open all hours" ?
Can't forget the Comic Strip, The New Statesman or Spitting Image
Or the Fast Show, Reeves & Mortimer, Big Train, The Royle Family, Early Doors and the Smoking Room
Open All Hours was filmed just down Balby road from where I live.
Blackadder popped up on the other British comedy thread the other day - the earlier seasons were best, and maybe Goes Forth too. Mr Bean sucks dirty shitballs.
Yeah, shit...there's a few I've forgotten about. Just dunno how many of them are still watchable today.
LOL@keeping up appearances. I know a lot of Americans love that show. Very odd.
The main thing here though is that I think all these threads totally scupper anyone's belief that British comedy is 'shit'. It's not. There have been some absolute classics...but a definite dearth over recent years. Harry Enfield was great in his day. I don't think his new stuff works.
Little Britain/Little Britain USA has had a few good moments, also the League of Gentlemen. Wow, the list really is long.
Americans do their stuff well, and we do ours well...just most often, the crossover doesn't work...take the dreadful US version of Fawlty Towers, 'Payne'. Shudder.
League of Gentlemen wasn't really a comedy, it was just a freaky TV series with a million and one horror movie references, that you just had to laugh at because the alternative was crying. I still love it though.
Hello Dave!
Loved that program.
Keeping Up Appearences was filmed about 10mins from where I grew up.
The Onslows house was round the corner from my grans
Have submitted a Mr Chinnery clip, Cheeky :P the one with the posh woman's dog. Think that'll go down well here?
Heh he he he heh
If I'm not mistaken that dog was a Stan. Dik'll love the clip
The young ones was a classic, ultimately leading to Bottom, which is one of the funniest off the wall shows ever!
pbs used to play 'young ones' here in the states sometimes...never heard of Bottom, though :(
It's pretty funny
The video stopped playing at 44 seconds and I couldn't tell the difference.
I didn't watch the video at all, so I probably enjoyed it more than you.
Some lucky people didn't even see the thumbnail.
^Idiots
You just get your laughs from watching Bloomberg, right Wanko.
British comedy is great . FULL STOP
The use of violence is a myth. We took over the world using nothing but innuendo, harsh sarcasm & a macabre attitude.
No. Really?
you know what's a really bad show...mad tv..i'm sitting here about to go to sleep as my vacation is now over and the only thing on tv is fucking mad tv...do you people have any idea how bad that fucking show is? never...ever...funny
i used to like madtv... i havent watched it in a LONG time tho... it used to be funny?
i've given it lots of chances...i really don't find it funny ever..maybe i just have no sense of humour
this must be an old one i'm watching..kevin smith is a guest and he only ways like 300 pounds
Thankfully that's one import that was stopped at customs
Wtf? I used to love a lot MadTV, stateside. I found it better than SNL has become. Maybe I have no sense of humor.
I imagine 1rish1 to be like a real life David Brent
ESCAPE
Shut up, you fucking idiot.
Persona, that is.
I imagine 'rish to be more like Cooter off Dukes of Hazard.
Boss Hogg more like
cooter from the dukes with his penis exposed
More like Roscoe Purvis Coltrane with his penis up Boss Hogg's dog
Was everybody at that party given magnifying glasses beforehand
Persona is 'ESCAPE' your catchword ?
Terrible.
shitty brits!! :P
Tremendous comment. Well done.
You really can't expect much more than that from the-comment-fag.
They don't have offices in Britain....fucking redcoats >=/
Mr Fugs has his "office" in a cellar underneath his house. Nurse found this out the hard way
Shhhhh!
this gives me a headache to watch
