Robin Williams is an American.

Okay, just sample a few of those and then make your assumption.
I've sampled nearly all of those, and found maybe 1 or 2 at most remotely funny. Even the Simpsons isn't hysterical, just mildly chuckle-inducing. Perhaps you should take your own advice and watch more than four British shows...

Americans aren't going to like British humor, plain and simple. A lot of those British shows seem to be where they hit eachother or some stupid shit and laugh about it. Or in Mr. Beans case you have some moron walking around who is a mute who tries to socialize with people. I hate the show. And my parents forced me to watch Benny Hill when I was a kid. I will never recover. It is about a fat, ugly horn dog who tries to hook up with chicks. Not funny at all.

I think that History of the World is a British movie, and I will say that is the only British humor I have seen that I find remotely funny.

And to Mr. Matt, I doubt you have seen all those shows as most don't air in Britain.

Shows what you know. If you stay up late enough with a satellite box, you can watch pretty much any old crap from anywhere.

When I say british humor I mean movies like Lock, Stock And Two Smoking Barrels or Snatch, the humor in Top Gear is hilarious too, and it's a car show!

Clarkson had his own comedy talk show a while back, of the same name. He had a large, 3D map of the world behind his desk, and if I remember rightly, he pulled America off and threw it in the bin :p. He also did microwave experients, and used a train set to demonstrate exactly how hard it is to run a rail network and thus the reasons why British transport is such a waste of time.

Shit, probably 95% of the 20th century's comedic movies(which were hilarious) were American..

Maybe 95% of the ones that were showed in America. There are a shitload of swedish comedies here but they don't show them outside of Sweden, and I bet that there are alot of comedies in other countries too.
