one of my best friends in the whole world is Canadian .. and has the best sense of humour ..
i idolise David Suzuki .. who is Canadian .. talk about irony .. and Mike Myers is Canadian .. and what more can be said? and drummer from rush is Canadian - Neil peart ..
so its all good
oh and you probably dont share this opinion .. but i was so impressed with Canada's position re: recent global politics

I always liked Benny Hill.
*Ducks head as projectile whizzes past*
There used to be a show called "The Goodies".
It had 3 British "hippies" with a Benny Hill flair.
Has enybody else ever heard or seen it?
It aired on American Television back in the early - mid '70's.

(Showing my age, huh?)

Fawlty Towers, Blackadder and Red Dwarf are all good, but I can't believe no one has mentioned The Young Ones. That seriously ruled.
Of course, I believe some honorary mention should go to Monty Python's Flying Circus.

A lot of good ones mentioned so far, but mostly older series. A more recent one I found very funny was Spaced.

yes. yes. Monty Python. My favorite episode was when they dressed up as women in the laundromat!!! the one about what to do with the cat when they went on vacation!!! a scream.
and the mounties singing!!!!! He cuts down trees!
He wears High heels. He loves to pick wild flowers!
He puts on women's clothing, and hangs around in bars. I love those guys.
