Garlic Bread?






It was no Spaced, Stella St or Seinfeld.

Shouldn't give Kay a hard time. If it hadn't been for Phoenix Nights we wouldn't now have Paddy O'Connell as a Top Gear presenter

Surely that should be, we should give him a hard time as thanks to him we have to suffer his talentless dhead school mate on Top Gear.

Just happened to watch an episode of Max and Paddy the other day as I'd avoided it before. Terrible.

Peep Show aside, Channel 4 don't exactly have a good strike rate with great comedy.

I loved Stella Street.

Me too. Been rewatching it on Youtube. Never not funny.

They should bring it back.

John Sessions intellect makes Stephen Fry look like a village idiot.

[V8covin]

I've said it before and I'll say it again,Rob Delaney is just not funny,in fact I'd say he's in the wrong profession

Paddy McGuinness is coming to Top Gear with his joke.

Bob Mortimer's Athletico Mince podcast is just funny as fk , Childish , juvenile humour at it's best.

Oh, claim to fame, I'm mates with Andy Dawson (the other guy on that podcast).

I'd say they've had a better strike rate over the last 10-20 years than any other channel.

Yep.

Cheers and Frazier to name but 2 of the greatest sitcoms ever to appear on C4.

Father Ted. Spaced. IT Crowd. Brass eye.

There's loads of fantastic channel 4 comedy.

[AdeTuono]

C4 has indeed had some superb comedy. Mostly from 20-odd years ago.

Those who sign off on new comedy seem to have dropped the baton recently though.

Tez Ilyas seems to be the name of someone who was on Radio 4 last night ("Tez Talks") and although the canned laughter seemed to enjoy it, I couldn't and someone else called Sam Simmons who followed it was no better.

I like Tez, but I was going to mention Sam Simmons earlier in the thread... I can only see that he is trading on his Aussie accent and looking like a tramp / bloke thats on the bones of his arse - he just isn't funny in the slightest and is very annoying to listen to.

I loved Lead Balloon.

Me too. The bloke who co-wrote it, has done quite a few good things:

Fixed that for you.

Never really rated the IT Crowd.

Great shows, but stuff shown on Channel 4 is rather different to stuff they make themselves.

Vic and Bob pretty much nailed Peter Kays ‘comedy’ on shooting stars.

That said both Phoenix Nights and Car Share I really enjoyed - but his stand up is dire

That’s hilarious.

Can’t stand peter Kay any of the ste he makes especial car share Jesus.

Forgotten how funny vic and bob can be.
