Well all people find their own humor funny, if you don't find your own humor funny you would make other jokes (or none). So this is a little obvious Aeg. and IMO british humor pwns american humor! go Britain!

What about the Naked Gun movies? I like those. In fact i like most everything with Leslie Nielsen.

oh and the airplane movies are great too.


British humor isnt that bad, but considering i've only seen some Monty Python i cant really judge it.

the Naked Gun movies? yes they where pretty funny, but i said that i don't dislike all american (humor) programs/shows. Leslie Nielsen made some funny ads for a mobilephone compaggy here in holland about a year or so ago, they where pretty funny!

"British humor isnt that bad"? Its the best! it rules! You should watch some more british programs (already mentioned in this thread).

Ok, if you think shows such as "The Office" are funny...then please find your way to the nearest psychologist, and get evaluated for being crazy! :p

Well, the hosts at America`s funniest home videos talk things that don`t make sence at all(AT ALL, TOTAL NONSENCE) but the videos are plain funny

It has been widely assumed that the recreation of 'The Office' in America won't work simply because Americans don't 'get' that kind of humour. I see that so far that theory is panning out OK :p.

Hmm, well, I've seen a lot of British comedy such as Mr. Bean, Monthy Python, Kids in the Hall, and Benny Hill. Monthy Pyhton is pointless humor. Sometimes this is funny, but I hated Monthy Python. Mr. Bean is an extremely shitty show. What is so damned funny about some random retard tripping over shit all day? Kids in the Hall is just.....awful. They're gay and not funny. What's so funny about some queers dressed as women? Benny Hill, more pointless humor, only shittier. Oh yeah, watch him chase some chick all day while listening to the most annoying music ever. This is the British shows I've seen, and they suck. Howhever, American comedy is the best. There's so many funny shows here, and just because a show is popular doesn't mean it's funny, mind you. Friends is popular. Enough said. I'm going to post a list of some funny shows, and when you watch at least 10 of them, don't flat out say American comedy isn't funny.

Simpsons
Futurama
Aqua Teen Hunger Force
Family Guy
Seinfield
The Drew Carey Show
Whose Line is it Anyway?
Chappelle's Show
South Park
The Daily Show with John Stewart
Insomniac
The Conan O' Brian Show
Saturday Night Live (The Old Episodes)
Mad T.V. (SNL's replacement)
Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn

Now a short list of some funny movies...

Old School
Super Troopers
Dickie Roberts
Tommy Boy
Black Sheep
Anger Management
Scary Movie 1, 2, and 3

And finally, a short list of good American stand up comedians...

Lewis Black
Dane Cook
Greg Giraldo
Daniel Tosh
Chris Rock
Robin Williams (I don't know if he's British. If he is, somebody tell me.)
Rodney Dangerfield
Jerry Sienfield
George Carlin
Brian Poseane (I think that's how you spell it.)
Buddy Hacket
Ralphie May (He should of won the contest, not Dat Phan)
Rich Vos (Was also funnier than Dat Phan)

Okay, just sample a few of those and then make your assumption. Just because something is popular doesn't mean it's good.
