Can anyone recommend any? I'm on the mood for some nice sketch comedy. I own The Fast Show already, and I'm gonna track down Big Train too. Anything others (apart from Little Britain)?

Moose is British. Monty Python is the basics in British culture.
Try MadTV or Super Happy Funtime Japanese Bullshit Variety Hour

Flying Circus is one that I keep meaning to watch, but I've never gotten round to it. Seen bits and pieces and most of it doesn't seem as funny as the films, which I do own. Suppose I could just download it and see though.

Are you just making up a name to categorize that genre or is that actually a show?
Ooh, I think I might have to get Trigger Happy TV. Candid camera pranks and the like aren't usually that good, but Trigger Happy was silly enough to work.

Mitchell and Webb can be a bit hit and miss. Sometimes they're great, other times it feels like a private joke that you're not in on, though they seem to get it right more often than not.

The League of Gentlemen can be like that, but I still love 'em.

Mitchell and Webb's sketch show is pathetic. I thought that after Peep Show they could do no wrong; guess not. They seem to stick with the crap sketches week in and week out and even their best sketches usually only get a chuckle.
Another one you shouldn't watch: Horne and Corden.

Never heard of it. M&W's show is alright though.

I ordered the first series of That Mitchell & Webb Look since it was only £4.

I heard the other series of M&W Look are pretty shit. I see episodes on TV every now and then, and some are okay, but I don't know which series they're from. Which series had that cheesoid sketch? That was shit.
