Registered 10 years agoAnyway I don't get on with most American sitcoms (I find some of them feel like they're trying too hard) but in my opinion the best one out there is Workaholics.
Which I don't believe has ever been shown over here, despite it being a Comedy Central series (Comedy Central have a UK channel). You can watch it on alluc.org and a bunch of other streaming sites though.XBL: rolemodel86 PSN: Syrette86

Which is fine, as long as that doesn't outweigh taking the piss out of other extremes too. Sadly they seem to focus on liberalism these days, and the humour all comes from the slippery slope argument which gets old fast even when its being taken to ridiculous extremes.
I stopped actively watching it years ago. It's just lazy these days and plays on whatever fashionable to take the piss out of. Case in point: scientology pisstakes. They have a hard on for it, and the frequency and predictable ways that they mock it smacks more of doing it because it is fashionable to do it these days rather than ridiculing the actual specifics of it to make a point about why it could be considered a load of manipulative pyramid scheme bullshit instead of just a wacky belief system based around alien lifeforms and strange pregnancy rituals and psychobabble.
Just makes it feel like they are pushing a political agenda now more than taking the piss out of everything equally. But I guess thats what happensnwhen youve been around so long youve become mainstream. People stop being shocked and start thinking you're just quaint so you feel like you need to keep pushing harder and harder to offend and shock peple whilst also appealing to their inner prejudices.

Registered 7 years agoThe irony being that the show targets the reaction of stupid/gullible people to these issues, not the actual issues themselves. South Park is and will always be the best thing ever put on a screen.Pissy pants.

As for you point about them focussing on liberal tolerance, the Democrat's have been in the White House for four years now so most of the big news events in America will be about that, just as during the Bush years most of the material was about far-right Republican news.
The programmes best years are behind it but it's still good after 16 seasons, The Simpsons became shit long before that. -

Registered 7 years ago@kinky_mong - So you didn't like the first couple seasons, but enjoyed the later ones... or are you talking about Simpsons?
With SP, I was out about the time talking poop became a character. -

Registered 5 years ago@ronuds I was talking about South Park, but that does apply to The Simpsons as well (although there are a few good episodes in the second series that are still watchable).
And Mr Hankey was in the first series of South Park so you would have been out after about 6 episodes. -
@kinky_mong - only the 6th episode? Well, I did say 1st or 2nd season!
I've tried watching sporadically since then, but I just couldn't get into it.
I feel The Simpsons had a far longer stretch of excellent seasons, but you're right that the first couple could be hard to watch now. And the new ones are just terrible. -
