                  I'd go for
                  1.Steptoe And Son
                  2.Porridge
                  3.Rising Damp
                  4.Till Death Us Do Part/In Sickness And In Health
                  5.Only Fools And Horses (although it went on on far too long)
                  6.Fawlty Towers
                  7.The Thick Of It
                  8.George And Mildred
                  9.The Office
                  10.Peep Show
                  Steptoe And Son is my number 1 but the rest aren't in any particular order but i've left out loads of others including Dear John ,Man About The House, Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em, One Foot In The Grave and The Likely Lads/Whatever Happened To The Likely Lads to name just some, i've never seen an American sitcom that i've even remotely cared for, the Americans make better films but we make better sitcoms but in any event the sitcom is an American invention anyway.
                  There are two kinds of people in the world my friend those with loaded guns and those who dig

                                stanb-2 — 10 years ago(November 13, 2015 04:39 PM)

                                I cannot believe that after all these years everyone except 1 person didn't include the most popular British comedy series "Til Death do us Part". Which in the USA was the basis for the top USA sitcom of its day - "All in the Family". Tjl Death is my all-time favorite, followed by;
                                2: Some mothers do 'ave 'em
                                3: Dad's Army
                                4: Faulty Towers
                                5: Are you Being Served
                                6: Keeping up Appearances
                                7: 'Allo 'Allo
                                8: The Benny Hill Show
                                9: The Good Life
                                10: To The Manor Born
                                And I also liked to watch
                                Open All Hours
                                The Thin Blue Line
                                Steptoe And Son
                                Steptoe And Son
