just because there’s a terrible british comedy doesn’t mean american comedies are better – there are some truly awful american sitcoms that won’t ever make it over here, just as presumably, american audiences won’t have to endure the whiny idiots from 2 pints.

What was that sit-com about a single mother called? I can't remember, but it was crap.

Brighton Belles was probably the worst ever. Why does Carla Lane insist on describing herself as a writer of comedy, rather than gloomy undramatic drama? When even the thoroughly warmed-up studio audience don't laugh more than twice an episode, you know something's gone wrong.

No. ‘So Haunt Me’ was the worst.

I should point you towards the original joke: Arizona Bay. The CD also contains hilarious and spookily prescient Iraq jokes…

Rubbish! It’s only the second worst comedy ever made, anywhere. http://www.bbc.co.uk/comedy/guide/articles/h/housethatjackbui_66601810.shtml>"The House that Jack Built" is the worst comedy ever.

(I have to say that I was remarkably impressed that despite the fact that it was a BBC sitcom, even the BBC’s page on it slates it from beginning to end. Which is no less than it deserves)

TPLAPC was truly, truly dreaful. However, could one not still maintain a superiority complex by maintaining that more Americans would find it funny than Europeans?
