I've seen Black Books a friend gave me a link to watch them online...I got through quite a bit of them before I lost the link. I've only seen Boosh once, I haven't been able to catch it on tv since then! Pity, cuz it looks really good.

I've found my favorite "Are You Being Served?"!!
The one where Mrs. Slocombe (SP?) gets hit in the head by agolf ball hit by Capt. Peacock and thinksshes a little girl for about 5 seconds then pretends for about 5 hrs. 
^in case you didnt catch that LOL^

Scottish comedy is the best, British is good too though, I like Little Britain from Britcom but I love 'Chewin' The Fat' and 'Still Game' they're awesome.
Also, Billy Connolly is the best god damn comedian ever...just had to get that in somewhere lol
