No need for a wordy intoduction, I'm sure we all have our favourites. I have titled the thread Classic Sitcoms, so you don't feel limited to discussing British comedy, but it is perfectly fine if that is what you want. So lets reminice about our all time favourite sitcoms.

It depends on your definition of "classic".
I'm only 27, so am only aware of sitcoms from the 90s onwards. But I would include Blackadder, Black Books, Father Ted, Phoenix Nights, Scrubs and IT Crowd.
That said I have seen the odd episode of Porridge, Steptoe and Son, Open All Hours, MASH and Fawlty Towers

Keeping up appearances.
To the manor born - I really enjoyed this . Originally before my time but all of the episodes were repeated in the afternoons when I was out of work.
I say more recent ones , but they aren't that recent -
Phoenix nights / Max and Paddy's road to nowhere
The Mighty Boosh

I’ve love Keeping Up Appearances & Dinnerladies! I love the old Mr Bean series too.
More ‘modern’ sitcoms I like are Extras, Ab Fab, Scrubs and Peep Show.
