chartpolski 23,060 Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 It’s only my opinion but I saw a lineal progression from Happy Days to Cheers to Friends to The Big Bang Theory. Casts of pals living out their lives in 50’s, 70’ 90’s and 2000’s America. Basically the same storylines brought up to date to reflect the times. I was also a big fan of MASH, Married With Children and even Will & Grace ! Now I’m watching re runs of It Ain’t Half Hot Mum, Till Death Us Do Part and Rab C Nesbitt, so I’m pretty eclectic with the comedy I enjoy! Cheers. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I like the comedies myself, like bottom, the young ones, rab c, still game, only fools etc etc, but im not all sentimental about it, thats why it takes all kinds to make a world, just a pity about the wrong ones included ffs Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Give me third rock from sun or Al Bundy in married with children. If we're going over the water... Married with Children was gem. They must've had an English scriptwriter; who else would've called one of the main characters Peggy Wanker- Bundy ? I bet the American audience had no idea 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
