Not going out has me laughing so much I ache.
We are working our way through all 6 seasons of 2 1/2 men at the moment.
Green Wing was excellent.
Scrubs

Not sure how far I'm allowed to go back with "recent" but my top 5 would be:

Ideal (when are they going to show series 4 on ABC2?)
Spaced
The Robinsons
Ruddy Hell, It's Harry & Paul
Father Ted - pushing it I know to be called recent, but in case that's out I'll say My Family - although apparently that will age me significantly......

And another that I thought good, but the third series wasn't as good as previous is Might Boosh

Not Going Out is my current favourite - Lee Mack is incredibly funny. Judging by it's slating in our paper the other day though, I think we may be in the minority.

My Family is great, as was Smack The Pony. Will have to check out this "Not Going Out" at some point.

I liked the first series, but not finding this one so funny. Will persevere in case it improves.

Loved Black Books!
