BBC comedy?

We like Still Game now on BBC Scotland, available on Virgin Media. Hubby often listens to radio 4 and the comedy on there in the mornings.

I quite enjoy Warren and Fleabag but I think the golden age of TV comedy was many years ago. Things like Dad's Army, The Good Life and Open All Ours, even Last of the Summer Wine, Just Good Friends and As Time Goes By have thankfully been repeated on either Drama or Yesterday channels. They're just a good now. As the cliche goes - they don't make 'em like that anymore.

I agree Kittylester. Mum is one of the best comedies that BBC has done for ages. Not much else to laugh at though. ☹️

Agree 100%, in fact I don't even listen or watch BBC anymore.

All the good comedies have gone forever I'm afraid and now there's very little, if anything that makes me laugh as I used to do.
TV is abysmal and only now caters for the " new age " in so-called comedy and other off the wall programmes.
Talking pictures is the only channel I have any interest in these days.

I did find Mrs Brown funny the first time around but now it's over exposed ( there is a joke there somewhere).
Sitcoms on BBC are dire I can't think of any which I followed up after the first episode. Warren is the latest in the weak and predictable offerings.

Charleygirl15. yes, I loved That Was the Week That Was and when I remember back and occasionally seeing excerpts replayed. It was, at times_vicious_. But it was clever and witty and assumed that its audience were intelligent enough to understand it. In other words, it was not dumbed down.

I love the Charles Paris mysteries, but often forget to listen, it is on at a time when I am usually out or busy round the garden. I do enjoy Just a Minute and I'm sorry, I haven't a clue and, intermittently, The Now Show

I adore Fleabag. My husband is shocked by it though.

I love Mrs Brown's Boys.

I cannot think of anything I have watched on TV in the last 10 years that was remotely funny. Warren is dire. I know I am showing my age but I used to enjoy "That Was the Week That Was*.

The beeb are good at clever comedy - my favourites include Mum and The Cafe - but they don't do then often enough.

I so agree Jane nothing on the BBC TV makes me laugh except HIGNFY.

I heard an excellent first episode of ‘A Charles Paris Mystery’ with Bill Nighy on BBC Sounds yesterday. I just wish all the episodes were available (weekly show) as I would like to binge listen.

And as for the 6.60 Radio 4 slot - it is either brilliant or totally dire and cringeworthy.
