Subject: RE: BS: Does Humour Cross the Ocean Well?
Robin Williams creases me up....and many of his movies were good too ( if you can forgive Altman's Popeye). I liked Saturday Night LIve when I lived in the States and I LOVED Soap. I don't really watch tv now, grew out of it I think, but do you guys get the more political and satirical stuff like 'Have I got News for You', ' Never Mind the Buzzcocks", " They think it's all over" and 'Drop the Dead Donkey'?. I am guessing not because they are pretty insular but represent,IMO, the best of british comedy today. I am not sure we do good sit com anymore.
