I rewatched all of cheers. I never actually watched Golden girls until a few years ago. I work weird hours and it was the only thing on before bed.. well that and I love Lucy right after it. We get a lot of British comedies now because of Netflix and stuff but they hardly ever air british shows on TV here.. If they like a British show here they remake it.. Shameless, the Office, Top Gear, exc.. In the 80's though we didnt get any British TV shows.Would you watch any of them now? Make no mistake, I'm of the belief that the UK ceded control of TV comedy in the early 90s, but the US was still in second place by the end of the 80s.
My Moms from Europe so in summers when I went to Ireland I remember watching one foot in the grave, only fools and horses ( I still watch that I have it on DVD) and was surprised how many US shows they would air over there.
I didnt know you were saying or arfuing that England had better Comedies, wasnt sure what you were replying to as you didnt quote anyone.. I was just saying that I liked Family Ties and Cheers was a cool show also..
