Did you ever manage to watch the t.v/sky series of the P.J's that he wrote?

Re: What threads do you prefer?
In my experience there are a lot of Brits that I've met that don't "get" comedy from overseas. Although the UK has produced some cracking comedy over the years, to think this is unique or exceptional to the UK is like thinking that Mateship is unique or exceptional to Aus.
I am a fan of Robin Williams, I quite liked the Sex & The City series (not movie) and Two and a half men is quite funny too.
As for Aussie humour, there are a few that I find funny, like Carl Barron and The Chaser Team's stuff. I also really like Chris Lilley's material too.
Just because I think the Brits are masters of comedy doesn't mean I don't appreciate other nation's comedy

Jammy is the same as lucky, as you probably know. And jane seemed to fit with it. Judith or Josephine didnt have the same punch
I have a good laugh when I am on American sites, and often get asked if I am still in my jammies. And I usually am,
.Cheers,

Personally, I think his film career paled into insignificance after watching his brilliant standup efforts. He is a master.

Re: What threads do you prefer?
My favourite threads are the ones in which people wring their hands and wrack their brains and discuss what's wrong with BE (or whichever forum I'm surfing at the time) and how the quality of threads has gone downhill and nobody's funny any more and...well, you know what I mean.
