Now that is a shame
I haven't told many people about my B3tans Projected IQ Database, but with that singular TV reference you just went straight to the bottom.

Not a fan then?

Whatever gives you that idea?
I think it's HILARIOUS. There is nothing funnier than a succession of thinly-drawn characters trying to eke humour from singularly unfunny scripting. There are points at which you can look deep into Dawn French's eyes and see suicide.

And cake.

I don't mind it. It is unapologetic in it's style and delivery, it's not trying to be overly clever or satirical

I tend to be confused by popular American comedies
On the one hand, America has given us the holy trinity of Frasier, The Simpsons and Arrested Development.

On the other, Seinfeld. What the fuck?

I really like Seinfeld.

But it's not funny
As far as I can see it appears to be a series about a man with a horse's face improbably bedding a succession of women despite none of them being as deformed as he is, and hanging out with a LOLWAKI mental patient and the most annoying fat bald man in the history of fat bald men. And Julia Louis-Dreyfus.

The Simpsons ran out of steam a long time ago

Oh, no doubt
But the first eleven or twelve series are excellent. Which is not a bad achievement, when you think about it.

whereas I respect others rights to enjoy what they enjoy, I cannot believe that the simpsons have carried on as long as they have
plus, isn't frasier just the same as seinfeld?

I don't watch regular sitcoms. Never have. Probably never will.

Frasier and Seinfeld could hardly be more different
Frasier is enormously clever and witty
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Thu 11 Aug 2011, 13:50, Reply)

I didn't watch either of them. But I'm sure some would argue the same about Seinfeld.
Still, who cares when you've now got Wilfred to watch.

I quite liked it
but I am easily amused and I like Dawn French.

but you can't polish a turd. Even when it comes in paper form with writing on it.

you can polish a turd if you freeze it first

I took home an Iranian child
in an act of generosity. Gave them the finest schools, clothes and an excellent makeover. Sadly they rejected all this and chose to go home. Goes to show you can't polish a Kurd
