    Strange, it seems that the views counter of LET do not count me.
    Maybe this is the reason that the views counter here is low.
    Now I am a ghost

  • @Murv said: nationality or government

    Well nationality isn't government. There are nice folks everywhere, even when the gvt is very repressive/shitty/whatever. And nationality in itself doesn't give much information on who a person might be...

    True enough. But some people tend to forget that.
    Glad to see there are people here who think that way!

    Don't worry, it seems like the main activity on the forum is currently to beg purple daddy for some extra bandwidth most people who ask for will never need nor use.

    seems the test ips on the order page are mistake, the test ip of Dallas and Buffalo should be exchanged :D

    161.129.152.2 should be the ip of nexril@Dallas, Texas https://lg.nexril.net

    Nice catch, they've been fixed now.

    Hi @Advin
    seems you created my vps at error location, I selected Dallas when order it, but you created it at Buffalo :s

    sorry, just noticed the BF & CM promo have different location :D

    Why does the last part of this thread seem like an updated version of the BBC TV series "Coupling" ?

    I think Bottom is very underrated. I'm not British so I don't know what's this show's status there. But I do know that Rik Mayall is famous, so... yeah.

    I know about these ones but haven't started watching them yet because either there are too many episodes or just never got around to watching them.

    2. The Black Adder (1982)
    3. Dad's Army (1968)
    4. Monty Python's Flying Circus (1969)

    Some recent ones like Fleabag, Ghosts, etc. are on my list as well.

    Any other Britcom shows @Nekki or anyone else would want to recommend?

    That is a very broad spectrum of comedy, going from the very popular to the fairly niche, but you've seen a lot of the classics. Seeing as you like just about everything, I'd recommend:

    • 15 Storeys High (2002)
    • Campus (2011)
    • Damned (2016)
    • Garth Marenghi's Darkplace (2004)
    • Man Down (2013, Rik Mayall's last comedy performance)
    • Open All Hours (1976)
    • Phoneshop (2010)
    • Porridge (1974)
    • Pulling (2006)
    • Toast of London (2012)
    • Twenty Twelve (2011) and it's sequel W1A (2014)

    Edit: Do make time for Black Adder, it's fantastic.

    Bottom is quite famous, Rik and Adrian were together in the Young Ones which is one of the most famous British comedies of all time, and Bottom continues the same kind of humour. The Bottom live shows are legendary for their screw-ups and errors, which aren't cut from the performances.

    @_;MS_ and @Nekki Thank you for all the recommendations.

  • Actually, these 30 (+ a few more) are the ones that I've finished. There are dozens more where I watched the Pilot, and then moved to some other show.

    Seeing that these recommeded shows are in the alphabetical order, shows that they are taken from a much larger list of selected TV shows :).

    • 15 Storeys High (2002)

    Oh yeah, I've seen their Sofa episode/Pilot. Loved it, a different kind of funny. I stopped watching only because the print of the RIP wasn't good. That was 4-5 years ago. I'll check if there are some other "sources" available now.

    • Garth Marenghi's Darkplace (2004)

    Yes, seen this one in many clips. It's a parody of old horror shows, right? I have it in my collection.

    • Toast of London (2012)

    This and Year of the Rabbit (2019) are on my watchlist, too.

    • Man Down (2013, Rik Mayall's last comedy performance)

    I'll check this one out, too.

    • Open All Hours (1976)
    • Porridge (1974)

    These ones I've seen in many Top X lists as well. These and, 'Allo 'Allo! (1982), Absolutely Fabulous (1992). One that was not in many lists is Yes Minister (1980) (+ Yes, Prime Minister (1986)), I liked the few episodes that I saw of this show.

    • Campus (2011)
    • Damned (2016)
    • Phoneshop (2010)
    • Pulling (2006)
    • Twenty Twelve (2011) and it's sequel W1A (2014)

    These are new to me. Thank you very much :)
    IMDbing them now.

    Edit: Do make time for Black Adder, it's fantastic.

    Sure :) I already have this and many others in the Collection.

    Seeing as you like just about everything,

    I've tried a couple of times, but could never like The Thick of It (2005).
    Maybe, now's the time.

    That's great. I've seen The Young Ones (1982), Filthy Rich & Catflap (1987), and some of the live shows that are available on YouTube.

    The Bottom live shows are legendary for their screw-ups and errors, which aren't cut from the performances.

    You're spot-on about this. That's what I felt while watching those live shows. I can recall one scene where Rik forgot his lines, and Adrian turned that into a 10 minute scene, LOL. Also, love how they engaged with the audience in their live shows.


    To anyone reading these comments, if you've not seen a movie called Withnail & I (1987), please do as soon as you can.

    There might be - it was never released in HD due to not being terribly popular, but after the actor/writer/creator Sean Lock died earlier this year, BBC made it available on the iPlayer so there might be something better.

    • Garth Marenghi's Darkplace (2004)

    Yes, seen this one in many clips. It's a parody of old horror shows, right? I have it in my collection.

    Very specifically, it’s a parody of 80’s British TV horror. There is a spin-off series, ‘Man to Man with Dean Leaner’ which has Richard Ayoyade playing Dean again interviewing fictional celebrities that exist in the Gareth Marenghi universe.

    • Toast of London (2012)

    This and Year of the Rabbit (2019) are on my watchlist, too.

    I need to finish of Year of the Rabbit. I watched it on a night flight back from Las Vegas, fell asleep and didn’t have time to finish it before we landed.

    • Man Down (2013, Rik Mayall's last comedy performance)

    I'll check this one out, too.

    Rik is in the first series and an Xmas special, he’s great in it. Such a shame he died so young.

    • Campus (2011)
    • Damned (2016)
    • Phoneshop (2010)
    • Pulling (2006)
    • Twenty Twelve (2011) and it's sequel W1A (2014)

    These are new to me. Thank you very much :)
    IMDbing them now.

    They’re fun. Campus is from the folks who did Green Wing, I really wish it got a second series.

    Edit: Do make time for Black Adder, it's fantastic.

    Sure :) I already have this and many others in the Collection.

    Seeing as you like just about everything,

    I've tried a couple of times, but could never like The Thick of It (2005).
    Maybe, now's the time.

    It can be a hard watch and I’m not sure it’s aged well. The US equivalent (same writers/creators) is Veep, which I thought was excellent.

    Sean of the Dead

    Shaun of the Dead (2004)? Yes, seen the whole Cornetto trilogy, and all the British comedy stuff by Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, and Edgar Wright.

    Hyperdrive
    You, Me and the Apocalypse.
    Dead Set

    I'll find out about these shows, thanks.

    Seems criminal nobody has mentioned Red Dwarf tho

    Yea :D. It's recommended a lot!

    Edit - also nobody mentioned The Office or Extras - Ricky Gervais actually used to be funny

    The Office (2001) is in my list above. Great stuff! Extras (2005) is on my watchlist, Derek (2012) too, but not that much. Ricky Gervais' ongoing show After Life (2019), which is not Comedy, is also good. I was shocked to see one scene about the drug addict character, I mean Tony's decision in that scene, how the producers allowed it to be in the show.

    Dead Set was excellent, it really didn’t get enough attention. I guess it’s a touch dark for some people.
