Smile Like You Mean It

Dwight Schrute: "In the wild, there is no health care. In the wild, health care is, "Ow, I hurt my leg. I can't run. A lion eats me and I'm dead." Well, I'm not dead. I'm the lion, you're dead. "


Why is it that i start with a quote from the office?
Seriously? are you seriously asking me that question...are you crazy? have you seen the show? its the sinlge most awesomest show ever! and for all those out there who doubt this statement, and just dont find it funny..i will quote the words of a very wise friend [
who i shall name 'Scots Tott'*,] and say.."you have to understand the charecters'..i would laugh at her, but i KNOW WHAT this Tott means!


The Office has to be one of the funniest shows iv seen in a loooong loong time! And you just have to watch it to realize how funny it really is..How i Met Your Mother # 2 on my list(in my head) of the decades funniest shows on tv. Barney makes the show, pity that doogie howser turned out to be gay, not that im into blonde scrawny types, but for those that are, my heart goes out to you!

Big Bang Theory, another funny comedy introduced to me by that same little Tott , a show about something different then just friends living together, falling in love and boozing up and doing stupid things...in this show theres a TWIST- its a show about all of the above, but with GEEKS! heh before you rule it out-consider once, its good!
3rd Rock from the Sun, a show about 4 Aliens who come and try to blend in on earth as a Family. Funny Ha-Ha comedy, perfectly quirky and cliche'd-Loved it! Will & Grace The most popular, gay-themed series, and the funny thing is yes will and grace are funny, but the two charecters that steal teh show are JAck and Karen!!! they are probably the two most hilarious charecters written and acted out!!! shear Brilliance!
Sex and the City This one is both an entertainer and a guide to life, love and relationships! whats not to like in this show? yes guys dont liek it much..but i can bet ANY guy ANYTHING if they sit through 3 episodes they will most definitly end up watching the entire season...Any bets?! scared? huh! haha

Id also like to mention some of the Brit comedies i LOVED..(i love brit humour-not all-but the right ones can make ur sides split)
Fawlty Towers..who hasnt seen this? the Tall lanky brush moustached guy half screaming his lines, his non-chalant wife half singing her lines and the staff made up of fools all trying to run a BnB(bed and breakfast)..not very subtle humour..but then what can you expect from '70s Tv?
My Family Something iv been watching since the past year..started watching it out of boredom, and my newfound obsession with BBC entertainment..ended up loving the witty humour and overall comical parody of the dysfunctional nuclear family system in todays world!
Two Pints of Lager, and a packet of Crisps, Introduced to this RANDOM show late one night in london by my uber-cool uncle, i instantly fellin love after 2 episodes..its sort of like the british version of friends(on the surface) but it much much more Crude, dirty, raunchy, etc. Its a show about 5 friends and their love, sex booze-filled pub Adventures..It can even be called a dramatic comedy with lots of ups-and-downs and every episode ending with a dramatic something happening! BUt by far teh funniest charecter in the show is Louise! you have to see it to understand what im talking about!
Do i need to metnion why i would also add Friends, SNL(Saturday Night Live), That 70's Show and Southpark in this post? Need any explanations? no? good!
if you do, speak your mind or forever hold your peace!

Peace!
