Why is the US so good at taking shit UK shows and making them infinitely better?
The Office
Shameless
Three's company
Cant the UK make a decent show?? Even their best are mediocre
Inb4 assblasted contrarian Britcucks claim their 12 episode Ricky Gervais cuckfest is better than Emmy winning Office

See that's the problem. This is a board for shitposting... but this is a shitpost about TV.
It gets confusing when it gets like this.

Your weak bait is horribly timed, it's nearly midnight in Bongistan, at best you'll only get a few neets who don't have work tomorrow/haven't had their mum's tell them to go to bed.
Shitposting 101: Know your timezones.
It's what makes Australians stand out from amateur shitposters, the cunts will get up at 0400 to catch a particularly butthurt timezone.
dont know bout threes company.
But shameless was on a roll until they started to fuck up from the past 2 seasons. I stopped caring about it after the second to last season that came out. And from the little ive seen and heard, the most recent one was basically just as bad as I thought it would be.
I know people are tired of hearing about the complaining, but they really did fuck up on jimmys character, and everything else has just been repetitive. Fionas relationships are just getting annoying to see, carl became an annoying character to watch. I guess Lips story arc is still pretty interesting but again it was getting so repetitive.

The office, sans its last 1-3 seasons (im not exactly sure when it got bad) is probably one of the best 30 minute sitcoms ever to grace tv. probably the only sitcom that made me genuinely care about the characters. probably some of the finest comedic writing i have ever witnessed.
keep being a pleb though, im sure its working out for you

Bus turds is funny because it actually makes sense. Calling somebody a "wanker" isn't funny; it's just a reference to a common human behavior that virtually everybody does. Calling somebody a turd is funny because nobody wants to be compared to an inanimate piece of smelly organic matter
Why don't brits get this? Silly words said with a goofy accent =/= wit
british comedy is really shit. Their shitty accents are not exactly helping.
>>71922891
in their defense, their whole language is silly words said with a goofy accent

The characters in the Office were total asswipes. And what's worse they were asswipes that I couldn't ever identify with because I never saw myself in any of the characters.
With a good show like Malcolm in the Middle, even when everyone was being a total turdburgler I could see myself in there shoes which made them more charismatic.
>>71923049
did you just compare the character development in the office to plebeian in the middle?
>>71922891
the joke in the UK version is Jay is that one cockbag you knew who says stupid shit that isn't even funny. For all intents and purposes, he's an edgelord. You laugh when he gets his comeuppance

Did you actually like the character deveopment in the office over MitM?
Did you actually prefer the office to MitM?

The bus wanker bit is just build up for this scene though, which is once again made even worse by the US

IT Crowd isn't that good, Peep Show also.
Well done. You passed the test. You are clearly a true patrician of UK comedy. However, without the above staples, almost everything is written by Chris Morris and/or Armando Iannucci...

The American "House of Cards" is infinitely shittier than the UK version despite the UK version airing in the early 90's
>>71923578
Are you seriously implying no good television was produced in the early 90s?
