Red Dwarf yes, but fools became more than just a comedy - more like a comedy soap opera. Yes the later ones lacked the magic mainly due to an ageing cast yet in a way that's what made it unique. I know the theory that Fawlty Towers was genius because it only ran for 12 episodes and in it's case that's true. That does not mean fools is devalued because it had a very long run, the product was still good IMHO.
If you want a series that over ran it's welcome by about two decades then last of the summer wine is the real stinker. |

How that has stayed on the screens I have no idea. Fools was funny until the episode where they got rich, should have made that the last one. Also got to mention inbetweeners, classic. |

I love the way how a topic about Agar being appointed has turned into a debate about Sitcoms. However I will put my own views on Sitcoms out there. Only Fools is the best of what I would call the old guard but I agree with the people who say that "Time on Our Hands" (The one where they got rich) should have been the last ever one and they shouldn't have done anymore specials.
I would say that Red Dwarf, The New Statesman were very good 90's sitcoms but Drop The Dead Donkey is the best Sitcom of the 90'S.
As for the modern era I would say that The Inbetweeners is pure genius.

Not a fan of the yank comedy but C.Y.E is brilliant. |

Good call - Porridge was ace.
I also loved The Good Life; watched a couple on Sky recently - still funny and Felicity Kendall is still a hottie.
