Black Books
I've just bought the boxed set of the first series. Dylan Moran still does it for me. Bernard Black is my hero.

Re: Black Books
Ahhh got me through some bad times recently did Bernard and Mannie.
Fantastic stuff. More over looked than Father Ted but easily its equal and a fucks sight funnier than the I.T crowd (imho)
Best episode for me has got to be The house sitting one. With the cellar of wine. Fucking class!!
The whole first series was tucked away on Youtube. Thats where I watched it again.
Cheers

P.S
Even though maybe slightly odd looking.....I think Tamsin Greig,is delish!!

I think this series of the I.T. Crowd has started much better than last years.
Plus I must admit I like Katherine Parkinson in those tight skirts.....ahem

Re: Black Books
Good series black books. Anybody remember the show small potatoes?
I thought that was a funny one as well - again quirky and different

I like Tami (to her mates) in Black Books as well. She may look odd, but she has all the right angles. Brilliant on stage too.
Re: Black Books
The house-sitting one's a cracker.
I like the one where Bernard does something at a dinner party, which he can't remember, and Manny thinks he's Reagan from The Sweeney.
"Belly Savalas"; "Cobumbo": what a class act.

Re: Black Books
Black Books is was brilliant, loved the episode in the 3rd series guest starring Simon Pegg.
I don't understand why people are so harsh on the IT Crowd, to me it's just a sublimely silly sitcom in a simmilar vain to Black Books and Father Ted (same writer), ofcourse the influences of Seinfeld are obvious but it's still hilarious, oh and the ne that plays Jen really does it for me too but that's besides the point. Anyone else think IT Crowd is underrated?

Re: Black Books
One of my favourite sitcoms ever and the dvds are full of extras, the commentary tracks are great (though there isn't one on series 3!!).
