[TV] UK Comedy Cup 2023 - Group D

[Mellotron]

Spaced and Phoenix nights have been absolutely stitched up by this draw.

Yes, yes they have. Sadly.

I still have hope for Phoenix Nights, but I think Spaced - as much as I love it - would've struggled in most groups, tbh.

 

[Mellotron]

Also can the OP also have links to other groups within the OP?

I had thought about something like that. Good idea, I'll sort it in a bit.

Yes unfortuantely my tastes aren't going to be reflected in the knock out stages, i fear.
2 last places and 2 third places so far.

Any of I'm Alan Partridge, Peep Show and The Office take your fancy?

I can see them doing well in the second half of the group stages.

Would rather see Psychoville go through, but that's wishful thinking.
I loved the other 3 when they started, but have grown increasingly less fond of them (particularly the Office) as time goes by.

Personal Opinion - Blackadder all the way but this is a strong group, group of death one might say. I also massively love Only fools and Horses, but I think Blackadder was a great development story in each season with funny moments bringing lots of laughs, whilst OFAH was a lot of incredibly funny one off moments, The story kind of played a second part to the one off moments - great story but maybe Blackadder nails that part more. So a close balance between them.

I'd say the complete opposite. I remember the story of a lot of Only Fools and Horses episodes and the general arc of the series, and I actually care about Delboy and Rodney, but don't remember as many flat out hilarious lines as Blackadder.
Whereas Blackadder is hilarious, but there's no connection between any individual episodes or series, and I don't really care about the actual story most of the time. Even the last episode, I feel emotional because the characters represent the thousands of young men killed in those circumstances during the war, rather than because I'm particularly invested in Blackadder as an individual.

An absolute SHOEING by Blackadder, men v boys.

As expected.

Beyond that though, there can't be any accusation of the groups being rigged by me - none of my other preferred options are doing well!

Warm balls?

 

[Muhammed - I’m hard - Bruce Lee]

All my choices are winning their respective groups.
Except this one.
OFAH is the king of the sitcoms.
Pffffft

 

[Durlston]

No One Foot In The Grave anywhere? I don't bloody believe it!

Blackadder V Only Fools should be the final.

Brutal start to the comp.

Big fan of Spaced too.

 

[Mellotron]

Blackadder V Only Fools should be the final.

It may yet be.

 

[JamesAndTheGiantHead]

Blackadder on course for the greatest victory since the Winchester flower-arranging team beat Harrow by twelve sore bottoms to one.
