[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't know if Professor T has been mentioned in this thread, but it's another really good show. There are three seasons available on PBS.[/quote]

The mention of Professor T reminded me -- it stars Ben "Death in Paradise" Miller and way before Death or T, he was half of the sketch comedy team Miller & Armstrong. Quirky and/or surreal sketch comedy by comedians who go on to do a lot of both comic and serious acting is A Thing, over there. For those who like British humor, go on YouTube and check out these now older (or if you prefer, "classic") sketch series:

[b]That Mitchell and Webb Look[/b] (You'll know David Mitchell if you watch Would I Lie to You. This series also occasionally features the divine Olivia Colman.)

[b]French & Saunders[/b] (You've seen them both in many other things including Dawn French as The Vicar of Dibley, and Jennifer Saunders in Absolutely Fabulous)

[b]Goodness Gracious Me[/b] (You'll recognize quite a few of the cast of this sketch show which pokes fun at British Asian culture--including Sanjeev Bhaskar of the super serious Unforgotten and the sweet The Indian Doctor. BTW, "Asian" in UK parlance refers to what we here call India.)

[b]Miller & Armstrong[/b]

[b]A Bit of Fry & Laurie[/b] (As in, Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie both of Jeeves and Wooster, and so much more)
