BFTD Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 American Sitcoms are pretty much, to a man, shite. Frasier. Wish they were still making it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audaces Fortuna Juvat Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 (edited) What about Scrubs? Excellent stuff throughout, until the last series. Married With Children for the legend that is Al Bundy, and the "wid" that is Christina Applegate.

The Ginger Prince Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 American Sitcoms are pretty much, to a man, shite. Curb your Enthusiasm was okay and I've heard good things about Arrested Development. The rest I've seen are pish though. Too much audience participation for my liking. Pass marks for Home Improvement because I had the teenage horn for Jill, the mother. Used to love Home Improvement when I was a bairn. Love intensified once I'd caught on that Tim Allen was the voice of Buzz Lightyear. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zen Archer (Raconteur) Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Roseanne was good apart from the eponymous star of the show, the rest of the cast appear to have done well for themselves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardinal Richelieu Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Heh. Okay, forgotten a few. Not quite sure why I'm giving you my review of every US sitcom ever made, except to point out I don't think they're up to much. Cheers was okay. Frasier was a bit up its own arse. Scrubs. Was watchable back in the day, but if I see it on the telly, I'm not tempted to watch. My Name is Earl... again, used to slightly enjoy it, but not exactly rush-home telly. Third Rock... tried it once. Never again, same as Fresh Prince. Too much cheesiness. Golden Girls... actually used to enjoy this. Nurses as well. (but not the Golden Palace, I have standards). Don't think they'd stand up to the test of time. Roseanne. Christ Zen. John Goodman (nearly wrote Don Goodman) got pass marks. The annoying wee brat, the annoying daughter that turned lesbian, the annoying friend (Jackie), the blonde one who went away and came back and was painful. And that's before we even get on to Roseanne. Did they not have a whole series that was just a dream? Or maybe they won the lottery. Cannae mind. Woeful telly. Zen. Used to think you had taste mate Nearly forgot Sandra Bernhard 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used to think you had taste mate Nearly forgot Sandra Bernhard I agree that Bernhard is a minus, however back to my point. Johnny Galecki, Laurie Metcalf and Sara Gilbert have done not too bad, the trio emerging on TBBT also Sarah Chalke coming good on Scrubs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lisa Cuddy Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 fair enough , my spellings ability is shite as has been discussed before . That's one of my pet hates. I get really, irrationally annoyed by people thinking that the phrase is "spacial awareness". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florentine_Pogen Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Moira Stewart when she does the 7.30 am news on the Chris Evans show. Does my head in. a) She's a feckin' awful newsreader these days, makes loads of mistakes. b) She engages in some godawful scripted 'banter' with His Gingeness and ends up guffawing in a 'snorting cocaine / choking on a pistachio' stylee. Dreadful, cringeworthy pish. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardinal Richelieu Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 That's a shame. Used to have a lot of time for her. Supposedly, as the credits were rolling at the end of the BBC News, John Humphrys turned to her and said... You’re the most sensationally sexy lady I know. The best thing we can do for the next few hours is to make mad, passionate love in the basement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
