The BBC has a great site set up for them. There are clips from ALL the different seasons. Along with wallpapers n such. The 'lookalike' photos are hilarious.

They can cheer me up and give me a good hard belly laugh when almost nothing else can.

7. One of my favorite shows EVER

I just wish it ran more often, and not just limited runs on Oxygen and Comedy Central...

11. One of my favorites! I can't decide which one reminds me more of

myself!!! An old bo used to hate it because he didn't like the way the daughter spoke to the mother!!!! I don't think he got it, whadaya think?
I never even tried explaining it-just told him: "It's only a TV show for chrissakes!"

12. Another fan here

My favourite has to be the one where they go to Morocco...selling Saffy for slavery and wandering the desert on a donkey.

Or wait...maybe it's the one where Patsy has to go on a morning tv show...either way, they're all great.

Ab Fab and French & Saunders - :yourock:

13. Major fan here

Some of the greatest writing ever. Very few television comedies have ever made me laugh-out-loud, but AbFab does is consistently.

On edit: Only one show could've ever pulled off the major coup of having Marianne Faithfull AND Anita Pallenberg on a situation comedy episode.

14. Hilarous lookalikes!

[Cannikin]

16. that section was hilarious

[nytemare]

15. I love the one where Eddi dreams her lips are like a Spitting Image puppet

Funny stuff!!

You must have sort of the same taste as me, judging by your sigline as well.

17. LOL I thought you were referring to something else

An old Cream album entitled "Wheels on Fire"...oh, Ginger Baker.

We need more cowbells for Ginger, Eric, and Jack. :headbang:

19. One of the funniest sight gags ever - - the kitchen has burned down

And Edena and Saffy are surveying the ruins, wondering how the fire started - - and suddenly a lump of ashes sits up, revealing itself to be Patsy, waking up (hung over) holding a smoldering cigarette.

ROTFLMTO...
