I have never laughed so much at a sitcom in my life. This witty and LOL comedy is by far, the Best of the Best when it comes to situation comedy. This one episode (which I could not find on youtube) will delight those who can claim adulthood when it comes to religious sarcasm. After one of the home's residents (inmates) funeral's Diana tells god she does not believe in him, while Tom looks up to the sky and tells god, forgive her because she's old and does not know what she is talking about... hilarious. :-)

As an American I have never laughed harder in my life than at Waiting for God and Are You Being Served? We had absolutely nothing as good or as funny; I still watch reruns today every chance I get. Kudos to the Brits, they know how to laugh!

@sarasarah1810 2 года назад

FreshFields, The Good Life, and May To December, To the Manor Born, give them a go. Great laughs all of them.

I showed my American brother one on Nan's shows (Catherine Tate). He laughed his head off. Then I showed him a picture of her sans makeup. His eyes popped out of his head. He put the picture as wallpaper on his phone, where it stayed until his dying day.😂

When the Americans try and do their versions of British sit-coms, they make a right mess of the job because they don`t really understand the type of Brit humour.

@sethflix 2 года назад

Tell that to Norman Lear and "All in the Family" as well as the producers of "Three's Company", Both are American TV series that that ran for years, which were based on British sit-coms !

@sunshineandwarmth Год назад

They do, they just make American versions, wh aren't as good bc American English isn't spoken in the same way as British is. Wouldn't be much sense in making the same show, would it? It's the phrasing, isn't it? Americans speak more plainly, Brits more colorfully.

@glnnchrstphr9717 7 месяцев назад

This show, Keeping up Appearances and Fawlty Towers are 3 of the best britcoms ever. Are You Being Served and As Time Goes By are also great. Last of the Summer Wine is another classic and very long running show. The brits really know comedy.

@garyfenlon5769 3 года назад

5 truly great series, only thing that made the 5th series a bit of a disappointment for me was that 'Basil the Bonker' (the actor Michael Bilton) died shortly after finishing the 4th series and i really missed him in the 5th series.

@richardlawson4317 7 лет назад

Actually, I live in a place similar to that but here in the US. It's downtown rather than the show's country location but the feel is quite the same. Ambulances appear once or twice a week and we all ask, who is it this time? But it's not at all depressing, as you might imagine, I'm still healthy at 66. Guess I'm more like Tom (tho not senile), but we have our Dianas as well.All I can say is, we 60s kids were never to get OLD. But reality bites, and here we are. Cheers!

Not true. She was born in 1941. This show was made in the early 90s. That would put her in her mid 50s, not early 40s.

At the end in the write up I'm not sure I agree with the description of Tom as having mild dementia. In the first episode he said: 'They think you all go ga-ga once you hit 65, exploit it that's what I say' I'm convinced he had a firmer grasp on reallity than the other characters thought and it was only Diana that saw through his act.

@ZetaReticuli_ Год назад

He actually was feigning dementia to get back at his daughter in law for the most part, who he couldn't stand. Tom was Dianna's opposite in so many regards, but they both had a bit of a trouble-maker in them. When you compare and contrast them, they are actually very interesting and complex characters.

The best British comedies are the ones that are the most stoic, such as yes minister or, private Shultz, which was hilarious, Or the ones that are the silliest, such as “‘Allo,’Allo” Which was unbelievably stupid but absolutely hilarious.
