    Top 50 Sitcoms

    Not sure why people are trying to put a sexist angle on my post. I would imagine that it's widely accepted that Miranda, Ab Fab etc are predominantly watched by women. Generalising for sure but a safe bet. So if, as I imagine, women are more inclined to vote in these polls then it would explain...

    In the Top 10 but I can't remember the exact position

    OK - Spoiler Alert (Probably not spoiling it for anyone) 3. Friends 2. Father Ted 1. Blackadder OFAH was around 8 or 9 from memory which was surprising.

    Top 50 Sitcoms

    The presence of more female oriented sitcoms (Miranda, Ab Fab, Will & Grace, Golden Girls etc) above more critically acclaimed, male-centric series. I may be wrong but I would be amazed if it wasn't the case that the number of female voters as opposed to male voters in most, if not all, TV votes...

    At least it is in good company. No Curb Your Enthusiasm either. We must know nothing. Hi-De-Hi and Keeping Up Appearances are obviously much better. If I was cynical, I would say the availability of Jeffery Holland and Vikki Michelle and a woman from KUA may have swayed the choices somewhat.

    Arrested Development was included - another Mockumentary. Forgot to add that Frank Spencer was notable by his absence. As was Bottom. But Outnumbered was in. I can only guess that the ones that missed out were not on the list offered for public vote. P&R is a US sitcom - I have heard of it but...

    Top 50 Sitcoms

    Just finished watching this Channel 5 programme from last night. Now I know these things are subjective and are probably voted for by a lot more women than men. I can almost understand Are You Being Served, It Ain't Alf Hot Mum, The Likely Lads, On The Buses, George And Mildred and a few others...
