I love Dad’s Army and have recently been watching it again on some Sky Channel. Jeeves and Wooster wasn’t a big favourite of mine though.
Fawlty Towers is my total favourite but Dad’s Army is a very close second.

Do you realize that’s like 45 bucks in American rubles, I mean dollars?? Still a good price, though, considering what my husband paid for the first season of Grey’s Anatomy. Daaaaaamn.

Saw Dad’s army plenty of times, very good show!!! I didn’t know Jeeves and Wooster but now I’ve gót to watch it. I like the British humor.
@ Dwayne..thanks for putting that mental picture into my head..now I won’t be able to sleep all week.

I also watched a British show ‘It ain’t half hot mum.’ Enjoyed that one too. Strange is, it’s one of the very very very few shows where they translated the title for some strange reason to ‘O moeder wat is het heet’ (O mother it’s so hot) and I don’t know why.

Those in the USA have missed a classic show not seeing ‘Dad’s Army’.

Dads Army, like Are You Being Served, matures with age.

Its only when you get the chance to watch it and compare to some of the bilge that has passed for TV comedy since that you realise just how good it was.

Of course everyone will go for the highlight “Don’t tell him Pike” but my favourite moments were the several moments when Sgt Wilson was taking the piss from Mainwaring, especially the one in the vergers office when Mainwaring shows him his new wig, the subtle laughter and “oh yes, very good” is comedy genius with a minimum of dialogue.

See a love and a hate in one post. I oh so very much hate Dad’s Army having been tortured with it on many an evening through my earlier life. Jeeves and Wooster, however, is a love of mine and would definitely appear in my Top 10 TV Shows had I the time and energy to do a list like this.

And after you so lovingly pointed out the joy of buying the box set before bought and watched… and will watch again and again and again. The sweet sweet joy of being so frightfully English!

Brill choices here Dan. Mr B would want to shake your hand if he ever met you. I like them both too.

I was a wee nipper but I do vaguely remember watching Dad’s Army. I think my Mum like it for some bizarre reason.

I’ve never seen Jeeves and Wooster but have definitely heard very positive things about Fry and Laurie. I’ve never even heard of the first show, though.
