Good British comedy (lemmy.world)

Looking for some good comedies. I looked at the top shows on Brit Box (streaming channel in the US), and most of them are police procedurals! I think the first comedy is Gavin & Stacy, which I haven’t seen but isn’t there something newer? My wife and I have enjoyed Coupling and Inbetweeners. Any suggestions?

I really enjoyed "Extraordinary". It has a lot of the same feel as coupling, maybe mixed with a bit of "Misfits".

Speaking of which, "Misfits" first couple seasons are pretty great as well.

Really enjoyed Extraordinary (on Hulu in the US). Will have to check out Misfits.

Excellent! Make sure it's the UK version of Misfits. There was a truly terrible attempt to make a US version.
