Then replace those with Black Books and Not Going Out.

Isn't anyone going to mention The Young Ones?!!

It looks like Bottom is barging them out in most lists. If Bottom hadn't have happened then it may have sneaked in my list. But I feel more guilty for leaving Some Mothers out, tbh.

Holy poo on a stick! I forgot Some Mothers too!

*ashamed*

And Bottom is a hundred times funnier and better written than The Young Ones...

You're joking, surely? Bottom relied too heavily on Carry On-esque double entendres to get laughs.

I NEVER joke when it comes to Bottom

To me the most important thing about any sitcom is how much it makes me laugh, I love to laugh!!

And no other sitcom splits my sides like Bottom did.

Sometimes I will be at work or whatever and something that happened in Bottom will pop into my head and I will start laughing! even now!

Then again, that could be some sort of mental illness....

Who knows...

C'mon, the Dangerous Brothers is The Young Ones is Bottom. I like all of them but they're all much of a muchness aren't they? The thing that make The Young Ones better is Ben Elton's co-writing. Whacking each other is fine but you need something else too.
