    Farther ted was funny, the IT crowd isn't canned laughter and very cheap sets
    Totally agree.

    I can watch Fr. Ted over and over and still laugh out loud - mainly due to the performances of the actors rather than the quirky scripts.

    Shame that poor Dermot Morgan didn't live longer to make another series.

    The 'IT Crowd' was total rubbish.

    perhaps they are well supplied by a 'preferred' agency?

    So, new cast, new script writers, and why not a new name too. With those minor changes it'll be right as rain.

    Yet again you demonstrate that you are a complete wanker with no social skills.

    What's the matter little cry baby. Still smarting from being walked over in another thread? Get over it you loser. Though I suppose trying to win an argument is central to your ego and your sad life.

    Because it's funny?

    IMHO Richard Ayoade is one of the best comedy performers around at the moment see Garth Marenghi's Dark Place for another example of his work.

    oxymoron (classical plural: oxymora, Anglicized plural: oxymorons)
    1. A figure of speech in which two words of opposing meanings are used together to express two contrasting qualities in one concept. "Bitter-sweet" is an example of an oxymoron; memories that are bitter-sweet are both painful and pleasant to recall.
    2. (non-standard) A contradiction in terms.
