We do! We really really do! We do. We do. We do! It's okay, just trying to convince myself. I say we do, what I mean is, we DID. England hasn't produced a really good belly-laugh inducing sitcom since the 1990s. But she still tries, bless her.
I agree that England should be first on this list as England really does have the best sitcoms and the best sense of humor - but United States at #4? What is this person going on about?
Where do I start? Red Dwarf, Blackadder, Bleak Expectations, Only Fools, Dad's Army, Fawlty Towers, The Young Ones; and so many more! And they're all hilarious! Who wouldn't vote UK?
It's the English accents that do it. Say the same line from an English sitcom with a Yankee accent and it just wouldn't have the same effect.
3 Germany
