Black Adder > Fawlty Towers > The Office
>>63541870
it's in order already
>>63541870
That guy whose whole routine consists of screaming "IT'S A PUPPET!!!"
>tfw Blackadder is rarely discussed
>>63542029
This. He is also the biggest asshole and probably made this thread.
>inb4 he's too good for that.
Atkinson > Cleese >>>>> Gervais
>>63542062
> what is Fawlty Towers
seriously, kill yourself.
>>63542062
Fawlty Towers was all him and his wife.
>british """""""""""""""""""comedy"""""""""""""""""""
>>63542103
he's probably too busy divorcing his latest blonde American wife to make threads here
>>63542089

First off, it's Cleese. As has already been [/thread]'d
Second, Gervais should even be in the same room as Cleese and Atkinson. What in the fuck? You put a fucking podcast host next to John Cleese and Mister Blackadder.

> these comedians are making references to events from 40 years ago which I dont know about, why isnt this funny to me?

>Blackadder is great!
>I agree!
>Seconded!
>Wow, that was a great thread.
>For you.

Gervais should be on there. Whatever you think of The Office, it's one of the all time great worldwide successes.

Hey reddit.

Gervais is definitely a big influence on modern British comedy. A lot of shows now seem to think being awkward automatically makes for funny television, and British stand up comedians like Josh Widdecombe and Jon Richardson are just bad attempts at being Tim from the Office.
