I think it's because British sitcoms are "look how much of a pushover I am" where as American sitcoms are basically "watch me get into a wacky situation via misunderstandings"or "watch me ruin these peoples lives, but I'm still in the right."

ROTATE THE BOARD!

brit here, US comedy eclipsed British humour over a decade ago. Barring a handful of stand out shows we got nothing apart from our satire of current affairs which isnt really comedy. accept it.

Y'know, Mickey used to have a stunning body when he was younger. If I had a daughter, I'd give her to him.

His view is outdated. Like he hasn't seen any American comedy since the 80's or 90's.

He's spot on about Americans wanting to only focus on winners though.

Why was SIrens cancelled?
That show was great!
Happy endings too.
But chuck lore's shit is available on tv almost 24/7. Except for Cybill which is actually great.

I feel bad for myself because normies ruin comedy in general.

Not a clapper or a bong but The Thick of It is fucking hilarious
>>

they enjoy humour where people's trousers fall down or fall over

If you're gonna take this piss out of them at least do it right.

American comedy of the last decade has revolved around over the top reactions. People yelling and swearing because something strange or "crazy" has happened.

>>69093004
True, but the Brits gave us this.

British people have the smallest houses in the world.

They're like 1/8th the size of american houses.
