I agree, British humor has always seemed quite dry to me, in a good way.

the comedians are better live imo some of the comedy shows are not as good as live comedians imo.

I’m more partial to Brit humour so long as they don’t try and put it in a television show.

I haven’t watched tons of British comedies. I always thought Mr. Bean wasn’t too bad though.

I’m not a huge fan of comedies anymore of either persuasion, though. It takes a lot for a movie/series to make me laugh anymore. I get more of a kick out of some comments on the forum(sometimes even my own), than I would from watching a comedy.

I love British comedy. I don’t know if it’s better, but I like the British sense of humor. It’s much drier and more spicy than American comedy.

I wrote to Patricia Routlege she sent me a signed photo

Ya’ll need to add to your diet Australian Humour. It’s pretty much a mix between American and British as we’ve roots in both but has this self depreciating quality that is oh so good.

We’ve always had the both so I’m more inclined to older british humour and later American. I think Britain has fallen away somewhat in the last couple of decades but Monty Python, Fawlty Towers, the Young Ones and even that earlier stuff like the goodies was gold.

America caught up later with some amazing things like Parks and Recreation and more modern ones…but still. Look up Aussie humour. I think you can see The D Generation on youtube overseas…crazy Aussie goodness.
