American Reacts to Top 10 British Comedy Legends!

[@carolineskipper6976]

British TV does NOT use laugh tracks- most of them are done in front of a live studio audience, with any sections that cannot be done live shown on a screen- but the laughter is REAL and in the moment!

[@ffotograffydd]

Indeed! The irony of an American criticising laughter tracks, they appear on practically every US comedy I’ve seen! 😂

[@peterrobinson3168]

Don't confuse laugh tracks with "canned laughter". 😉

[@zaphodbeeblebrox6627]

Watch the Morecambe & Wise skit with American Conductor André Previn, it's hilarious. All the funnier because he flew over to Britain to do the show and learned his lines in the back of the Taxi on the way to the studio. He carried it off superbly, you would have thought he had rehearsed for days, a sheer genius & a joy to watch.

[@Varksterable]

André was perfection in that slot. Totally agree! But M & W are in all things just spontaneously right. It's just how they preformed.

[@jamesdignanmusic2765]

Part of it he adlibbed too - the line about his going to get his favourite baton wasn't in the original script.

There are the Two Ronnies, The Fast Show, Porridge, Steptoe and Son, Rising Damp, Whose line is it anyway? and many more

[@VelvetVoice]

They already have ‘Whose Line’ in the States (and it featured many of the regulars who ultimately showed up in our UK version too), but, justly pointed out nonetheless.

[@VelvetVoice]

Ultimately, a ‘Top Ten’ is simply too brief a list to compile, not to mention damn near impossible - there are simply too many stand-ups artists, sitcoms and broader comedy shows to name (I think what she was aiming for here was underrated UK comedy proponents that most if not all US audiences were least likely to have heard of - still, it really doesn’t explain the inclusion of the ruddy Krankies)

[@MrRjhyt]

Vic and Bob did a brilliant comedy quiz that ran for years. 'Shooting Stars', with a variety of sometimes quite baffled guests, including Larry Hagman.

[@TfL1901]

Another suggestion..... French and Saunders... They are a double act but they have their own projects as well. Dawn French ( who has a hilarious comedy called The VIcar of Dibley (seriously laugh out loud funny) and Jennifer Saunders was one of the leads of Absolutely Fabulous ( which is a show Americans likely know)

[@grapeman63]

You could make a whole list of brilliant comedy radio shows like "The Goon Show", "The Navy Lark", "Round The Horn", "Hancock's Half-hour" and "I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again". Shows that launched the careers of some of our best comedians.

[@stephenlee5929]

Came here to say that, Its shows/people Americans haven't heard of.

[@Cruithneach]

Accepting that this is a list of comedians/comedy legends of whom Americans might not have heard, being Scottish, I considered my compatriots. I assumed they'd have heard of Billy Connolly and Craig Ferguson, so I immediately thought of Frankie Boyle, Kevin Bridges, Jimmy Logan, Chic Muray, Armando Iannucci, Rikki Fulton and Jerry Sadowitz. Their selection was...The Krankies - give me strength!

[@Amy-fx5co]

Victoria Wood is amazing, she's by far the best. I quote her all the time. I could rewatch dinner ladies over and over again.

[@Russ_Keith]

The standout here is Victoria Wood. Brilliant, funny and irreverant. Gentle observational humour with barbs. She did everything from standup to sketch shows to situation comedy right up to and including drama. All successful and mostly, if not all, written by her. It's as if she knew she wouldn't have enough time here to fit everything in. Her book of jokes is text book for many comedians on how to write humour. Comedy got a bit less funny when she was taken from us much too soon. The only other comedian whose death affected me as much was Paul O'Grady, either as himself or as Lily Savage.

It's worth knowing that Bob Mortimer of "Reeves and Mortimer" fame is a national treasure. He's just a really funny man.

[@klaxoncow]

Apparently, the way Vic and Bob met was that Vic was doing stand-up comedy and Bob was heckling him throughout. And he was so hilarious that Vic asked him if he wanted to be part of a double act. Like, Bob was not a comedian or trying to get into comedy, but was such a natural, Vic offered him a job and the rest is history.

[@natalielang6209]

Suggestions: Anything Harry Enfield (Kevin the teenager, Stavros, Loadsamoney, Kevin and Perry), Peter Kay misheard lyrics, Victoria Wood Let's Do It and Vic & Bob (Reeves and Mortimer) Shooting Stars or Vic Reeves Big Night Out which is hilarious insanity. Also one off sketches for Comic Relief in which beloved comedy characters interact with actors and others such as Dawn French with Johnny Depp.

[@spacefanatic]

The 'Krankies' were terrible. You should watch 'Morecambe & Wise, especially the ones with Andre Previn, Shirley Bassey, Glenda Jackson and Tom Jones. Also their 'Jungle Book' sketch was fantastic. Victoria Wood is an icon and her songs are fantastic as are her sketches.

[@coldwhite4240]

Great to see radio comedy getting respect and recognition, with ISIHAC and Just A Minute, although the problem with that is that you miss out a lot of TV classics (like The Two Ronnies, Steptoe & Son, Dad's Army, etc). In reality, you could easily have two separate top 10s - one for radio and one for TV.

If you ever watch Morecambe and Wise, the sketch to watch is the one with classical conductor Andre Previn. You can almost quote any line from that sketch and Brits will repeat the next line.
