NATHAN BARLEY
The whole thing's on youtube (or was recently, I can't be bothered to check). Take it from an american, it's the funniest thing a brit has put out since Fawlty Towers.

Nothing there is funny.
Gervais isn't funny.
Pilkington isn't funny.
Monty Python isn't funny.

DAN DAN THE PREACHERMAAAAAAN

Honestly I didn't think Nathan Barley was funny, it was just extremely annoying and irritating but I get that's what the character was. Morris and Brooker are basically masochists for spending so long developing that character.

It's actually quite prophetical. They made this before the rise of hipsters and the narcissist millennial generation.
>>
>>64196695

that's true, but they didn't really have anything to say about it other than "holy fucking christ society is doomed" and then it later lost its edge when Brooker decided to angle his whole career toward pandering to those types of people

I don't think anything will ever be funnier than the 3 seasons Monkey Dust lasted.

Wow, that takes me back. I only saw a handful of episodes but I enjoyed it and it's obviously stuck with me. It seemed really original at the time.

Good job picking the three worst examples of British comedy. We can do it too.

Big Bang Theory
Two And A Half Men
Inside Amy Schumer
