In The Loop is without question the best comedy film of

The Thick of It is better Tbh

ITL is too Americanised

Yanks ruin everything

>film

Also it was still made by a bunch of Brits. How is it too American? It's essentially just the best episode of TTOI.

by far the funniest big-screen satire in recent memory

absolutely wrong

THIS is the best episode of TTOI

>>79585547
>It's essentially just the best episode of TTOI.

But that's demonstrably wrong you stupid Yank. Just because it's mostly set in the U.S and laughs at Americans as well as Brits doesn't mean it is actually better. It's the American talking.

The Rise of the Nutters specials were the best episodes of the show.

I will admit that Veep is actually incredibly good though. I was impressed having avoided watching it for years. It's basically The Thick of It with a new cast. I just wish there were some cameos from TTOI to spice things up occasionally. I mean the guy who played Ollie is directing it for pete's sake.

That's not Four Lions

Also surprisingly good and flew under the radar: Alpha Papa

Gabagool?

>>79586892
Alpha Papa was good, but suffers from the same thing as ITL. Being not as good as the series it started out as.

What We Do In The Shadows is great too, and starting to get some recognition.

In the loop?

What are you, 12?

>>79586989
Alpha Papa worked for me because I never saw the show. But when I went back to watch the show it was a bit much...I had already had a 2 hour dose of that character.

I am also one of the few humans around who liked Jonah From Tonga for essentially the same reasons.

>>79585315
then why didn't I laugh even once?

>>79587237
Not enough fart jokes for you?

>>79585315

It was quite alright, but nothing memorable. I cant remember the plot. I know it was very politcal. And Capaldi swears a lot. Thats it. Not the best comedy even that year. Sorry, OP. You're just different.

>>79585315
Nah that's Black Dynamite, good try though

Yes.

>>79586290
Veep has gone to shit though. The last two seasons were almost a parody of itself

For another show that might not be on your radar, check out an Australian show called 'The Hollow Men'. It's basically Australian ITTOI and it's excellent. Another one is 'Utopia'. Very much in the same vein as ITTOI or Veep, but with a slight touch of The Bong office. Obviously written and produced to absolutely nail the particular bureaucratic turds you find in Australian offices.

In a really strange turn of events they are two pieces of Australian produced TV that aren't total shit.
t. non australian who lives down under.

it's all in the attention to detail

I really cannot imagine how anyone non-southern english or high tier scottish can even hope to understand even 1/10th of the comedy present in The Thick of It.

How could an American possibly ever hope to understand this scene for instance?

Comedy? Are you fucking kidding me? I thought it was a documentry. Are you saying we are to laugh about it? I am aghast.

his stand up is shit. fair enough if his directing is up to par, i haven't watched veep past s2. Ollie guy was a try hard comedian on every panel show he was ever on

Don't judge comedians based on panel show performance. It's like judging a footballer based on their YouTube highlights reel.

>It's like judging a footballer based on their YouTube highlights reel.
>it's like judging someone based on their best bits

>>79589449

Alright, it's like the inverse of judging a football player based on their YT highlight reel.

Pedantic sod.

The Hollowmen and Utopia are both produced by Working Dog Productions, who were also behind All Aussie Adventures and Frontline which are great shows also.

British films and british tv are awful

>>79589627
That's bullshit, just this week we had a great drama about some Nothern scum that faked kidnapping their daughter.

Maybe I dunno... on some level subconsciously it was like... it was just a last ditch attempt to stop this awful war.

Did you just say you had sex to stop the war? An anti-war shag?

fucking best excuse for cheating put on film
