Looking for some good comedies. I looked at the top shows on Brit Box (streaming channel in the US), and most of them are police procedurals! I think the first comedy is Gavin & Stacy, which I haven’t seen but isn’t there something newer? My wife and I have enjoyed Coupling and Inbetweeners. Any suggestions?

    Minus things already mentioned (and in no particular order):

    • The Thick of It (political comedy, has some amazing swearing)
    • The Cleaner (British version of a German comedy)
    • Ghosts (not the US remake, of course)
    • 8 out of Cats Does Countdown (comedy version of the long running quiz show)
    • Alan Davis’s As Yet Untitled (talk show with comedians)
    • Gone Fishing (not a comedy show per se, a gentle fishing show featuring Bob Mortimer and Paul Whitehouse)
    • Drunk History (British version of the American show/YouTube sensation from back in the day)
    • Mighty Boosh (surreal humour, still gets referenced frequently in my house)
    • Jeeves and Wooster
    • Phoenix Nights (Peter Kay show, definitely check this out)
    • Vicar of Dibley
