british version of "the office" is the worst fucking thing i've ever seen and i'm not even american

also i hate this fucking faggot

/thread

Appeal to ridicule.

fuck, I'm on season 5, I'm afraid for when it ends

It's way funnier than the American tho, more subtle. Americans need to have everything thrown on their faces, I'm even surprised that the American version doesn't have a laugh track.

...

/thread AMERISHARTS BTFO

Brits are equally vulgar, they just mask it with verbose language.

And honestly, by "vulgar" I actually mean "fucking dumb".

Fuck British humor. With American humor, you can just call those who enjoy it morons and call it a day. When you point out Brits are equally fucking dumb, expect verbal diarrhea about le subtlety and incessant comparisons to Americans. Pot calling the kettle black.

As a Brit I have to say that most of the comedies that my friends and family consider genius are absolute shit. That being said, I love the following:

>Red Dwarf (not the new Dave ones they are shit)
>Little Britain/ Come Fly With Me
>Blackadder s2-s4
>The Inbetweeners (although the movies are no where near as good)- although this scene fucks me up

youtube.com/watch?v=cU9rYiMKkEk

We did it better newfriend. That's why it got canned.
>le silly man dancing

By making an objectively superior version of the same show?

worst taste, stop embarrassing us.
Officially GOAT British comedy:
>The smell of Reeves and Mortimer
>Mr Bean
>Only Fools and Horses
>Fawlty Towers
>Dad's Army
>The Office
>The Trip

Shit-tier British comedy only fags and yanks enjoy:
>Monty Python's flying circus
>Blackadder
>The IT Crowd
>Peep Show
>Mrs Browns Boys
>Little Britain
>The Vicar of Dibley

What's wrong with Blackadder? And Little Britain is fucking stupid and gets repetitive after the first few seasons, but I find it hilarious. I agree with all the other ones you said are shit though. I have an Irish friend who loved Mrs Browns Boys. It is utter shite. Seriously I think the Irish just like an accent they can relate to.

Also Mr Bean is fucking Godtier so we agree on that.

youtube.com/watch?v=QNRkhJc2d_w

>That's why it got canned

Honestly American comedy rarely strays outside the mold of "DUDE SILLY SITUATIONS LMAO"

They try to be funny whilst British comedy tends to just shit the British and the way they do things (class society and all that).

It's like they're trying to piss each other off and then having a laugh about it.

>mr bean better than blackadder

>Blackadder
>Shit

>when a Brit has to explain why his comedy is superior near me

Brits can do proper comedy sometimes, from the usa we only got bazinga

American sitcoms are fucking terrible

It thinks it's communicating!

What about this?

Just obnoxious really. Edgy comedy for the sake of being overly edgy and stupid. Really dated and not funny.

American sitcoms are the lowest form of entertainment. Goes to show how dumb the average american is considering their popularity.

British politicians a funnier tho

youtube.com/watch?v=3QRthd6hswQ

Seinfeld is far funnier than any shitty Brit show aside from maybe peep show

Ah Americans. The mere suggestion that they're not the best at something is enough to send them into a state of anger, furiously sputtering out U-S-A chants and bringing up things they never invented. Why are you all so insecure?

German """comedy"""

top pleb m8

HAHAHAHA HAHAHAHA wow!!!! Look at all the quotation marks he used!!! Fuck that is so FUNNY!!!

terrible
Ein Herz und eine Seele is GOAT German comedy

Monty Python is shit but honestly it's more beloved by Americans than Brits anyway. It has a massive cult status over in the States, and is a symbol of British culture of sorts. Over here it is well known but not nearly as beloved as the likes of Only Fools, Blackadder, Two Ronnies, etc.

The greatest British comedy is The Thick Of It. The fact that it barely gets a mention here proves how pleb this board is. I also think The Office is superbly written and acted and has some golden moments, but I know yanks can't seem to stand it. I urge anyone who hasn't watched The Thick Of It to do so asap, it's fucking excellent, and is probably the best political comedy/drama... well, ever.

Other good British comedies:
>The Royle Family
>Extras
>Early Doors
>Phoenix Nights

PD: I love Monthy Pyton

peter serafinowicz shits all over anything comedy americans ever created.

kids in the hall too.

This. UK version is obviously superior in every way. The American version tries too hard to be """""funny"""""" it's OOOOHHH AAAAHHH, NOOOO, over-the-top, childish, unimaginative. Besides being obviously of better quality, the UK version had something to add, had merit, and was quite inventive. And no I'm not from the UK.

>when babbys favorite series gets canceled and instead much more successful American version is introduced which goes on for many seasons

Name one example.

Things Cred Forums agrees are funny:

>Seinfeld
>Curb your Enthusiasm
>Arrested Development
>Monty Python
>Keeping up Appearances
>Anchorman 1
>40 Year Old Virgin

How fucking cucked are Britsharias?

They literally try to compare a show they ran 12 (twelve) episodes to an 8 season long American show.

All stand up comedians are shit regardless of where they come from or whether there humour is political, satirical, observational etc etc, why would anyone pay money to watch some attention seeking prick do various rehashes of the same material they've been spewing out for years.

All these butthurt eurocucks ITT

>Forgetting Cringe Comedy

Seinfeld is brilliant, not that part obviously, nor the stand up, which is awful. Arguing that Seinfeld represents the typical American sitcom is pretty inaccurate as well. I agree that a lot of American humor, stand up is horrible (Office UK >>>>>>>>>>> Office US), but this clip doesn't really prove your point.

mfw never seen Seinfeld and saving it for later in life when i have crippling depression

MARK WATTS

Curb Your Enthusiasm > every brticuck comedy

Everbody Loves Raymond is by far the worst sitcom ive ever watched, theres more clapping and laughing from the audience whilst the actors stand silently looking at each other than actual dialogue. Thats real cringe comedy.

>no mention of the fast show

>shits on blackadder

you're a cunt, mate. i'm happy with both american and british comedy, they don't exclude each other.

They prefer 'Brit' or 'English'. I then joke and tell them than I find 'Brit' offensive due to it's use as a racist slur in Ireland and post-WW2 independence fights, like in Cyprus and they look, ahem, sheepish.
