Faulty Towers was another that I personally have never found amusing. There is the odd funny part but to me it is far too slapstick in general, very obvious comedy which is more in the vein of many/most US comedies then and now. No real double entendres which are the backbone of most genuinely funny comedies. The ones that can be watched by children who appreciate the obvious and then still enjoyed by them as they grow up and start to get the double meanings to much of what is said (the Carry On series are masters at this as was Allo Allo) so they realise there was/is an entire new layer to what they are watching they couldn't appreciate as children. That is true comedy but nowadays something you seldom find.

He’s a hen pecked husband with a wife who doesn’t really seem to lift a finger to help him. And then there’s Manuel....... It’d be quicker to train a monkey 😂 Polly isn’t that much better either. Better than Manuel, but that’s not saying much. And also a lot of the comedy is in the situations in which Basil finds himself. I’m pretty sure Basil probably suffers from high blood pressure and likely would’ve eventually died from a heart attack if he’d carried on. That’s why there was only two seasons and 6 episodes each per season. Surely John Cleese was giving himself high blood pressure just from being so irate all the time as Basil.

I know they are popular - same with Charlie Chaplin or Abbott and Costello or Laurel and Hardy, I simply don't find them funny but somehow Benny Hill is hilarious though much of his comedy was also slap-stick but it was done in an incredibly clever way relying on more than just actions to be humourous.

Flipping hilarious, he was your clichéd Irish builder, slippery character, dodgy workmanship, no sense of urgency. I dont know any Irish friends who found it offensive, it was done well and just so funny. John Cleese, a great fan of ireland, poked as much fun at the English as he did at the Irish, Spanish, germans etc.

All I ever seem to hear nowadays about comedy is a warning that these top rated shows from the 70s and 80s might offend someone. Yet, I never hear talk of any a single comedy in recent years that might rival their popularity and quality. That is all you need to know about the quality of comedy today and how we have arrived there.

The very sad miserable people who come up with this "trigger" stuff, must be very shallow indeed, I could say more, but these people just are not worth it.

I remember a British comedy TV series called Come Fly With Me, that was one long trigger warning by today's standards. 😄

I remember during the pandemic, Channel 5 were showing reruns of ‘The Golden Girls’ they had a trigger warning that said “this programme contains historical attitudes”. It was probably one of the most progressive comedies of its time, one of the most loved especially amongst older American gays, so I had to laugh when Channel 5 put that warning.

Remember when they brought out the explicit warnings on CD's and the kids wanted to listen to them twice as much?

Surely the only comedy that should come with a Trigger warning is Only Fools and Horses 🤣

The problem is the 21st Century past the Millenium entered an era when nobody in the media has been able to think of anything new so they have to dig out faults in the old stuff and reissue it devoid of any innovation or edge. Prequels and sequels and reruns and music devoid of any invention except playing with the auto tune level.

Yeah, sad to think they sit through millions of hours of old programs. At least Train spotters got out the house.

And yet , the vast majority of sitcoms of the past century had zero swearing , nudity, crudity or nastiness. I love most comedy, but much modern comedy is very angry and confrontational

It's all 🐂💩. All those shows were proper.

"What a rotten lot of entertainment staff you've got. They're a load of Merchant Bankers. ... It's cockney rhyming slang." Priceless.

Brit Box is the BBC. So the madness continues.

I loved Hi De Hi, pure funny! Still makes me laugh now, hilarious! Only Fools and Horses comedy gold imo.

One of the reasons I watched this series was because it was tame and family focused. I loved Hi de Hi

And just when you thought this country couldn't get any worse than it is now God help us

waiting for trigger warnings on the waltons

Twelve years ago, BBC Radio 7 placed trigger warnings on the Steptoe and Son radio versions from the 1970s, while at the same time BBC Radio 4 broadcast new ‘comedy’ with obscenities at lunchtime and early evening.

Never forget, people choose to be offended, and the more insecure the more they are offended. so, tell 'em to get over it.

Hear me out here: trigger warnings are fine and a good idea. Why? Anyone offended by comedy from a different era will be warned and won't be able to complain if they get offended by watching it. If they do get offended and complain then they can be told, 'you were warned and it's your fault for watching it'. Think of it as the same as a coffee cup with 'warning: contents may be hot' on it.

I don't belieeeve it One Foot In the Grave a trigger warning.

"Keeping up Appearances" is on Channel 8 here in Houston, every Saturday evening.

This is why I have no tv licence and no online services .Purchased all boxset from eBay .

The powers that be don't want us even laughing. There weren't many laughs in Nineteen Eighty-Four.

I wont see the trigger warning as I have most of the classic comedy's on DVD & no one will stop me watching them & enjoying like I did when they were first on TV. TV channels better take note, more & more reasonable people are slowly turning you off due to the misleading, unbelieveable way you are now transmitting your programmes with numerous hidden 'messages' - it wont work, most of us are NOT woke, infact the opposite..........

There should be a trigger warning on bbc saying are you sure you should be watching this and having to pay a tv licence ?

all the old classic comedys need trigger warnings because unlike modern comedys they are actually funny.

Fawlty Towers is intended to be "offensive" - that's the whole point! Basil is hilariously awful LOL

Not just comedy either! Secret Army on the Talking Pictures channel had these "warnings" when shown recently!

That's commonplace here in Canada, with an advisory message before such series as "My Three Sons", "Gilligan's Island" and "The Beverly Hillbillies".

God knows what young people laugh 😂 at these days

It can't be 'Live at the Apollo' ! That's about as funny as acute toothache!

There should be trigger warnings on the newer sitcoms for foul language and not being funny.

In the old days, when I used to watch TV, I have watched all these programmes. There is absoluely nothing in any way offensive about any of these shows. Any one who thinks that they are offensive needs to get a life and try living in the real world. BTW offense is taken not given!

U.K. Gold show these daily without any trigger warnings.

The real question is, why do we have to pay a subscription to watch them when we already raid to make them.......disgusting!

I’m happy with trigger warnings; I prefer that to censoring them. I think Britbox have just slapped the same trigger warning on every programme whatever it is.

Be under no illusion, Brit Box ARE editing programmes. Check out some of the early episodes of the Benidorm sitcom. So triggers AND editing! Stopped my subscription!

I'd rather have my past than any childs future.

Not so long ago I listened to 'Round the Horne' on Radio 4 Extra that came with the warning 'contains discriminatory language and reflects 'outdated' period attitudes '. Strange, I just found it hugely amusing compared with the 'PC' leftie nonsense that gets passed off as comedy these days.

90 years ago we had book burnings. We know how that turned out 6 years later. Beware of the beginnings.

I love Hi De Hi. There was such a great ensemble of characters in that show. Mr Partridge was brilliant. A fallen vaudeville entertainer who had to take on a job at a holiday camp entertaining children doing Punch and Judy and he didn’t like children. And when he was drunk it was hilarious. The one where he’s on the beach and he’s got a banana in one hand and a bottle of whiskey in the other and he sees what he thinks is a horse being ridden by another horse. And he looks at the banana and whiskey and then throws the banana over his shoulder and chugs down the whiskey. And when he’s drunk he also does a rude version of Jerusalem apparently. And starts talking like Mr Punch, and you can only reason with him if you try speaking to him in Judy’s voice. 😂
