British humor always left me scratching my head and wondering wtf?
Which is the intended purpose, no doubt.

Could you imagine Benny Hill doing his shtick today?

What? Me worry?
I miss Benny. Mr. Bean has his moments also.

Heresy!
Too many to mention. I was raised on British comedy.
Reruns mostly but having a Brit for an uncle is a sure fire way to be educated lol
Monty Python's movies, Blackadder (mostly season 2 onwards) Mr Bean, Faulty Towers, Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em, even Are You Being Served managed to get a chuckle out of me. I remember watching Keeping Up Appearances as a kid when it aired and even that gentle sitcom is pretty fun. Brits love being the underdog, the one taking the falls. Americans generally seem to want to be the hero. It has it's good points and exceptions to that rule, but I find Brit comedy more endearing.

I do like Mr. Bean.
