I am more a lover than a fighter...

Seinfield is one of those American things that doesn't travel.

Well, to be fair, doesn't travel for you.

Five is not that bad a channel, lots of decent US imports and the documentary strands tend to be less dumbed down that on the main channels.

Does anyone have ABC? It seems a lot of the output on that channel is american and pretty poor.

For example, 'Hope and Faith' is SHOCKINGLY BAD.

Nods.

Not because it's the worst, but because its reputation is so inflated compared to its mediocre quality.

Prezunctly.

Seinfield
Arrested Development
Curb Your Enthusiasm

Curb only SLIGHTLY over-rated, so I don't agree with it being on the "top three". But yes to AD (and again to Seinfeld). :)

Sorry, yes, you're only going out with a schoolteacher... Well, classroom assistant... the one who changed her name?... used to be called Maxime?...

I thought that ABC had shut down. Was that only on Freeview...?

(I don't mind Hope and Faith.)

LOL.

And again, another mention for Becker as an ace sitcom. *points upwards*
