Unfortunately I don't mind much "comedy" that funny
For example, the kind of stuff thats down with the kids these days -Will Ferrell, Ben Stiller (grr), Vince Vaughn. You know the likes.

Even on the small screen, I can't believe what some people laugh at - Friends for example, or more recently The Inbetweeners. Family Guy has also gone utterly downhill of late.

Being brought up on Monty Python, Black Adder, Father Ted and the like kind of spoils most of the jokes in current comedies. Saying that some newish things I find funny:

Curb Your Enthusiasm
Live at the Apollo
The Mighty Boosh

If anyones familiar with "Curb", the last time I almost died laughing was the episode with the Kamikaze "veteran", and the bingo.

^ You are correct.

it's being recognised now though, after their dire fucking show.

Loving That Mitchell and Webb look though. those are a couple of weird fuckers.

Indeed to the pair of you
Although I wasn't that into Mitchell & Webb - Peep Show was amazing. Also sketch shows in general are pretty dire, especially these days.

I'm with you about Family Guy
It has gone a bit downhill now! I LOVE The Mighty Boosh and the small clips of Curb I have seen have been really funny!!

I laugh the most when watching older stuff such as the random sketch in Python where people suddenly turn Scottish and thrust out there arm and march off to Scotland - always cracks me up!!

The Mighty Boosh is about as funny as Cancer.

Boosh: not funny studenty in-joke bollocks
Much like 'Big Night Out' era Vic Reeves.

Yup, totally agree.
It's the most easiest form of 'humour'.

"Oh look, an elephant, with pink shoes, riding a rainbow made of tears to the magical land where the trees are made of water and the water is made of trees."

See, that's an eppisode right there.

Yup
I can sit through Family Guy episodes nowadays and not even raise a smile.

I can't stand Curb Your Enthusiasm.
It's the most horrible show I've seen in a long time.

It's basicly some old has-been parading around his showbiz mates trying to show the world how 'normal' they are, yet 'whacky' at the same time. It's a mixed message.

I find though, most things that I find hellerious when I'm with other people, don't even make me smile when I'm by myself, and visa-versa.
It's more seeing my mates crack up, that makes me laugh, than the thing itself.
