Woah! Love Thy Neighbour - faaaaar out!! I'd forgotten about that. Well, the American version (i think) was "All in the Family" with Archie Bunker - boy they'd both get the pc brigade reaaaaaly going too.
Anyone remember "All Gas and Gaiters"? How could you overlook 'warning warning warning Will Robinson' (Lost in Space)? Good grief I can't believe these things are being dredged from my memory cells. Oh, and I luuuuuuuuuuuurved Kenny Everitt, there was just something about that man!

DAteline: Debretts Thermal Resort. First ever Triumph NZ Rat Raid.

Standing at the bar, full of ink, waiting to get served and I say to the kid next to me.
'I like your Jersey.'
(NZ Maori away strip and it was just a very cool design)

'Yeah - we just nicked 'em hey'.

It strikes me 6 years later that he could have been taking the piss.

The original brief was post 1989 comedy, but nobody is complaining.

Red Dwarf 'smegging' maybe.

Chewin the fat - 'you're [long pause]............a dick'. 'goannie no dae that' etc.

League of gentlemen - 'yeah but yeah but whatever'. 'i'm a lady' [emily dickenson]. etc

ali g - 'is it because me is black?' - punani

Harry enfield - 'you don't wanna do it like that'

one foot in the grave 'i don't believe it'

And my personal favorite - 'bitte?'

Just started watching the Catherine Tate show. Wonder how many kids at school are going to start saying "doolukbovvad?" which i think translates as "do I looked bothered?"
Yes Big Dave I did realise I was a couple of decades (or 3!) out, but hey on such a nostalgia trip just couldn't help myself eh. So you may give me a whipping for sidetracking the thread

i know i deserve it ....
ooooh ooooh was that it?

'Married With Children'...if you could get past the bloody laugh track.

It occured to point out that some of the cleverest humour these days seems to be in the cartoons. I don't mean just the Simpsons, Family Guy and such, either.

I watch a lot of Cartoon network and Nickleodeon with my kids. To be honest, even when they are not around.

When I was young (coal sack, snow, walk to school on gravel in barefeet etc.) the cartoons were lame stuff like road runner. Sure, I liked them then, I suppose, but really - how much of the same repetitive scenario can they come up with? (See road-runner, yogi bear, scooby doo etc.)

Todays cartoons have so much content, plot, in-jokes etc.
