Title: Best ever sitcom?
Post by: GROWLER on January 16, 2010, 09:42:26 AM
Moving swiftly away from Gervais  and his rancid office. sick2:

Any other sitcoms I've possibly ommited, feel free to add them to the poll.

So many excellent sitcoms back in the 80/90s. Whatever happened to all the great script writers? Shrugs:
I can only think of Outnumberd from recent times tbh.

First bloody pole I've ever done and you say it's werthless.  ::) I'm well 'urt and I declare that Fawlty Towers is the winner, ok?
Do you realise that the 4 first letters of the werd werthless is typed conseculatively to the right and down one, and werthless is the first 4 letters and down one to the right also.
Obviously in the werd werthless you've got to move over 3 more to the right, and then back up to e amd then simply down 1 to s  to the left to complete the werd.
It's a real joy to type it, and probably the fastest werd/s I can type. happy088
