Favourite sitcoms during 70's/80's

[Big_gun_boy 10]

I never used to miss Whatever happended to the likely lads. Saw a repeat the other day, and it looked terribly dated.

I wonder if any of todays "comedies" will be remembered in a years time, leave alone standing the test of time for over 20 years?

Any thing with Lenoard Rossiter, Ronnie Barker or David Jason.

One of the funniest of recent times was Father Ted.

 

One comic I cannot stand is the Rickey Gervais.

The Office was brilliant, but as I have seen him since, I realise he was not acting.

He really is a self-satified smary git.

Love watching any 70s 80s telly stuff just cos they remind me of younger times when everything seemed innocent and carefree.Remember watchin an episode of the Generation Game when a bloke won and his prize was 5 mins snoggin and groping the french bird from mind your language (serious),they even had the nerve to bring on his wife after they had finished,here face was priceless.

Fave prog from 80s was a kind of loving with joanne whalley (just because of her) and have been trying to find it on net for ages,if anyone can help would be well chuffed
