The Day Today was also equally as good!

To be honest, the thing I remember most of Brainiac: Science Abuse weren't really the women (to be completely honest, I almost completely forgot that it had those segments) but more so that depending on the type of salts you shove in high quantities into caravans, you get impressive colorful explosions AND that thermite is pretty disturbing (something I was recently reminded off when I was reading one of the Final Destination novels where it was used to off a character...)... But frankly, you could still make Brainiac today, perhaps make it a bit more scientific (there is a lot of cool looking experiments you still do) and less breast-centric but it can be done. A show (though not British, it is Belgian) that I don't see anyone making today would be M!LF, which was short for Men Liberation Front and was meant to be poke fun at feminism and the idea of the new man in a satirical, be it at times incredible juvenile, way and since people nowadays simply don't seem to get satire anymore, anyone involved would like be burned at the stake for it if made today.

Loved Little Britain back in the day, everyone at the time was watching it too. Literally had no idea that anyone was offended by it until the internet and social media blew up and started seeing people moaning about how x, y, z sketch wasn't funny just offensive. I was so perplexed at the time I just couldn't understand why people were taking a dumb sketch show so personally, re-watching it now though I'm almost surprised wasn't _more_ controversial 😂

add The Fast Show to that list too. far superior to Little Britain

absolutlely loved 'the-word' when it aired, radical and would leave with a lasting impression, i can still recall some of the things on that as if it was yesterday ! Brasseye another favourite, especially the 'cake' and 'padeophile', risky, brave comedy. Not like the crap we get now, come to think of it, do i watch *any* comedy on broadcast TV anymore - not an iota !!

The point that these are comedy shows deliberately pushing the envelope of acceptability seems to have been missed completely

Naked attraction, what were they thinking?

My takeaway from this is that TV companies have been incompetent at pitching shows for a long time. It was always clear that most of those shows were badly conceived all along. Little Britain, the Office and Blind Date were all great though.

Absolutely love little Britain and still do.

Think you've missed the point about Brainiac: Science Abuse. It wasn't all about scantily clad women it was more about how fast John Tickle can run across a pool full of custard or how potent thermite is. It took light-hearted questions and smashed them together with actual science and a fun editing style to create a brilliant comedic effect, it was genius. You've honed in on one particular theme and by doing so you're tainting the shows legacy. It's as if you're making out it's just some backwards show for 'lads' and 'blokes' who just wanted to see something raunchy.

I really don't think the Office should be on this.

Surprised you didn't include The Tube. Not quite sure who thought having bands on live TV at teatime. Despite that it managed over 100 episodes.

My sister and I had all the Mini Pop records when we were little, we never saw the show though.

Mini Pops ended up in Canada too. My childhood friend had a cassette tape and played it nonstop. Like nonstop. The madness of that tape only stopped when it mysteriously went missing (…another friend stole it and buried it in the backyard).

Little Britian was not offensive - It was just not funny.

Not including The Inbetweeners in this list was a major crime

The Word was a legendary show that launched the careers of groups like Oasis and Jamiroquai, who had their first appearances on the show. Plus the legendary interviews with MC Hammer and Snoop Dogg being attacked by Emu. The _I'll Do Anything To Be On TV_ segments were a bit rank but there was the other segment where kids were having wild parties while they thought their parents were away. I'll hear nothing negative said about The Word.

If anything, comedy ages badly. Something funny becomes popular because its relatable. Given how different my world is from my parents, a lot of the comedy my dad found funny in the 80s wouldn't land the same way with me, and that's ok. It'll be the same way if I have kids. I'm curious to see how the world changes as I get older.

The Office is apparently removed from reality?? Have you ever even worked in an actual office?

Chris Morris should do a Brass Eye Covigeddon special. Or, actually perhaps Covid reporting was pretty much a Brass Eye special.

Are you kidding me? Brass Eye has aged like a fine wine.

Supersize V Superskinny was so biased and degrading. Especially the waspish comments from Liza Tarbuck towards the supersizers. Especially when she's hardly slim

You know, as much as I want to argue with their comment about The Office, it is actually kind of true. The job format has changed extensively since the pandemic (and maybe even before that). At least I can still re-watch it and not feel guilty.

Quite surprised Prank Patrol wasn't included

Brainiac should never have ended. Got kids super interested in science.

Never liked Little Brittain, never found it funny, one of the worst shows ever made!

Little Britain was great. They came over here in Australia for theatre show

Won't lie, 10 Years Younger has a very shallow concept, even back in the mid to late 2000's. All that show did was dump an unhealthy amount of pressure on ageing individuals to look young/trendy (and gave out a very irresponsible message that growing old gracefully is not acceptable in society), not to mention conveying that broken aesop that it's acceptable to cruelly rip someone's self-esteem apart over trivial things such as thier hair, looks, dress sense & physique. That show was brutally effed up smh And don't get me started on that bint Nicky Hamilton Jones! 🙄😒😡😤🥱

Yet we have the same and much much worse now on KZread, Tik tok etc etc and not much is said….least with tv your parents had some element of control. Social media on a personal device is a different kettle of fish!

Sky 1 should have a video of its own strange shows

The segmant "I'll do anything to be on Television" in The Word wouldn't be able to air today simply because people will post anything to be famous on the internet.

I think that people need to stop whining and realize how funny some of these shows are

The Word was a great show, featuring New bands and good interviews, we knew it was outrageous at the time that's why we watched it.

Number 4 & 3 would actually be revived by Channels 4 & 5 for right wing working class audiences & easily reel in everyone who doesn’t really care much about what’s going on in the world as reality type media often does until even overweight people start to preach like Steven Miller. Also the media outlets that shall not be named would go out of their way to make an expansion channel to revive some of these

Little Britain and Come Fly with Me are more like scretches. I wish they still had them though. Society is so hypersensitive now. I loved it.

I don't think there's any comedy on TV today, due to this innate fear that someone, somewhere and at some point in the future _might_ possibly get offended by something said, (in jest, no less), on it. Apparently, we're not allowed to find things funny, (particularly in regard to ourselves), any more. Because, that's all it would take. Seeing the funny side of things rather than living as a perpetual victim, scared of how the world might perceive us, and complaining about it when it gets too close for comfort. The infantilising effect where no-one is allowed to say anything even remotely interpreted as disparaging about anyone else, (particularly pertaining to race, gender and sexuality), as it could possibly be interpreted as hurting their feelings. The irony being that it's not even the people within these groups who complain, but some sanctimonious offended by proxy individuals/advocacy group, who have to make a noise every now and then, otherwise no-one would know they existed, not to mention risking their, no doubt, well-paid jobs paid for by the public purse, no less.

It ain't half hot mum, dad's army and a lot of 60s to mid 90s will not work.

Brainiac Science Abuse was quality when Richard Hammond was hosting it.

From Blind Date to Married at First Sight, that's progress!

So Braniac wouldn’t be shown today essentially because it was too laddish.

was there a usa version of Brainiac because that show looks familiar and I don't know why

The fact these shows couldn’t get made today is a bad thing not a good thing.

Little Britain was supposed to be non PC, that was the whole point.

Braniac was fun. I remember being 9 and it usually followed The Simpsons on Sky in the evenings. Good times.
