Friends was good but went from being a sharp comedy to something much lesser around Season Five... Seinfeld is a classic, you're right. Frasier's another good one.

But myself and Misanthropy are still right about Buffy and Angel :P.

EDIT: In fact, for some reason this has left me with a hankering for some "The IT Crowd" (absolutely gutted I missed out on tickets for that!).

Good night 'unofficial Owls' :D.

An American calling someone pompous, whatever next. :D

Can anybody please help me? I'm having terrible problems controlling my streetmagic- I can't walk down a street without turning into a pub.

8 One uncle was a spy (for us), a second was one of only a handfull of tail gunners to make it from the start to the finish of war, he refused to retire even though he had done way more than his number of trips.
