Worst UK Sitcom in history!

[Northstander]

The programmes that claim to be a sitcom with an audience laughing at a volume that simply leaves you confused?

 

[scooter1]

this has been done before, so i'll use the same answer as before - Anything with Nicolas Lyndhurst after Only Fools and Horses

 

[Dr Q]

Chef = Sh*t

You forgot the truly execrable 'Keeping up Appearances'. Whoever thought of that should have been sacked and banned from being involved with ANY form of entertainment for the rest of their life.

What was that dreadful one recently on BBC1 with Caroline Quentin?

That one gets my vote..

The trailers looked so hideous I didn't even bother to try it. Can't remember the name either.

 

[Mr Everyone]

ITV's Holding the Baby. Featuring Nick ... Stoke fan.. from They Think It's All Over.. What's his surname!

Truly awful sitcom.

 

[Gwylan]

There are lot missing: It ain't half hot mum, Love thy neighbour and Mind your language - all based around the single idea that foreigners/black people are funny

Bless this house - based on the single idea that Sid James was funny

Don't wait up - an execrable English version of the Odd Couple

Different Strokes - based on the idea that the Confessions of... were cinematic masterpieces

There was also a truly awful Jim Davidson vehicle that was as bad as that sounds and some dire sitcom recently starring Caroline Quentin whose name I've forgotten

And that's ignoring the sitcoms that were so bad that they scarcely made it out of the pilot series and which are thankfully forgotten.

I can't believe you've got My Family on there. One of the best comedies of the past 20 years. It's been going for nearly a decade now, and 8million viewers every week can't be wrong.

Lol they bloody can be!

 

[Cadiz Seagull]

Last of the Summer Wine. less funny than a 4-0 defeat at Brentford.

One claim to fame - I used to play squash with Bill Owen's son - whose family name was actually Higginbottom.

You have not been charged for this information

What was that one with Johnny Vaughan in a few years back? Absolute gash of the highest order

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

Anything with Nicolas Lyndhurst

Could not agree more Scooter1!

 

[Regina_George]

I don't think it's on there but there was this uk sitcom to do with the young irish bloke from father ted... being a superhero? And having a talking baby that on one else could know about, think it was called 'My Hero'... Worst thing I've ever seen, do not know what convinced him to do it

'Oribble I thought it was ok actually.

Good call. It was so dire I've mercifully managed to block the name out as well. You can add 'Green Green Grass' to the list and as was pointed out earlier anything with Nicholas Lyndhurst in it after early OFAH.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

I'm torn between the painfully cliched overacting of My Family, or the never ending, canned-laughter retirement home for elderly actors that is Last Of The Summer Wine. A toughie but I'll go for My Family on the basis that LOTSW is prob the only thing keeping some of it's cast alive.

We really do churn out some shit-coms here don't we? They STILL repeat Keeping Up Appearances on Sunday mornings

 

[Brighton Breezy]

Love Thy Neighbour was WORST by far. In more ways than one.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Oh, and Benidorm

 

[Ditchboy]

Ronnie Corbett's 'Sorry'. Fuckin pants, man.
