My patience was very much rewarded. Thank you for including Police Squad! It's appreciated :)
I love that show, got the series on dvd. Not as much of a fan of the Naked Gun films as much as the series.
No problem
Police Squad was a true classic!!
@TFOOS NIce to know what you look like!GOOD The Incredible Hulk original tv series Bill Bikby,Lou Ferengo. Underrated Fort Boyard game show Rubbish Inside Number 9 BBC so called comedy
@@GLOBEREVIEWS, when I was a kid the Incredible Hulk was my joint favourite show, along side The A-Team! I have to disagree with you about Inside no.9, I love it, it is so dark! But you are right, there aren't many laughs! I love your videos, by the way!!
Great to see Darkplace there! The one with the ghostly bagpipers appearing from the mist is class 😃🤘🏴
The one with the Woman slowly turning to Broccoli was my favourite.
Scotch mist is so much fun.
Scotch Mist on GM. Always wind my Glaswegian ex up with that episode.
The Smell of Reeves and Mortimer was a sketch show I enjoyed. But then, l do have an odd sense of humour at times. Their MasterChef parody was just sublime.
“Noel’s addicts” was another great parody as was “Stars in their eyes”
I absolutely loved blake seven a sci-fi series that started from 1978 for 4 seasons starring gareth thomas who played blake was friends with my dad
Pigsty terrified me as a kid. So did Dizzy Heights Hotel, another CBBC show from around the same time that featured a family of Spitting Image style puppets living in a hotel. There was one episode in particular where they ran out of food or something, and the mum’s eyes bulged out and she started foaming at the mouth and trying to eat everyone. It gave me nightmares for weeks.
Oh god, I did a video on that about 2 years ago as well, I'll have to dig it out 👍
That reminds me of Gigglesnort Hotel, this weird children's show that had puppets living in a hotel too. There was a dragon there and even as a kid I wondered what the hell I was watching.
@@dinara_safina Never heard of this one, will have to look it up
Have you ever talked about Warehouse 13? It was a show that was basically about the place where they took the ark of the covenant. That is a terrible explanation but the show was actually quite funny and wasn't bad. I remember enjoying it, especially the part about the electric car
For good or underrated, there's Invasion. A 2005 series which was a then modern 'Invasion of the bodysnatchers' story. A one season wonder, the programme was too expensive to produce for the audience it was getting, but the cancellation came quick enough for writers to come up with a decent ending for the show.
I really enjoyed this. It's an expensive looking show and stars William Fichtner, Veronica Cartwright and Elisabeth Moss.
I like the change where you put your rating at the end of each segment. I hadn't thought about it before, but I think this way is better.
Yeah suddenly occurred to me that would probably be better
I first saw Uncle Peter from Reeves & Mortimer as Charlie Chuck on the James Whale Radio Show, back in '89. I always thought he looked like Noddy Holder's Dad.
I could never get into any kid's shows that had any kind of puppet or people dressed up as puppets, (Rainbow being the ultimate exception, and maybe Mooncat, but we won't go into that), so the likes of Pigsty didn't stand a chance with me. I'd reached an age by then when the whole premise didn't appeal to me, anyway. I'd rather watch Rod Hull and Emu in the Pink Windmill/Emu's World, having first poured salt into my eyes.
I remember Police Squad, quite well. I was surprised there wasn't more episodes than mentioned. I must have seen all that were aired, as a result. Amazing how it never got more series of it made, really. A very well done parody of 70's/80's TV cop shows, for sure.
Absolutely LOVED Garth Marenghi's Dark Place! As a horror host, I'm a sucker for anything horror or supernatural related and this series sends up the tropes of low budget genre anthology series perfectly while lampooning the bloated egos behind the scenes.
Speaking of horror, I enjoyed the TV series "Contantine" from 2014. Based on the DC comics occult detective, it only ran one season of 13 episodes. An engaging character with well told stories. Why it didn't catch on, I have no idea.
I don't know if you've already done it, but I would like to see you review 'The singing ringing tree'. All of us who were very young children and watched it in the early sixties grew up to be adults who could watch any horror film, no matter how scary and know that it could not be anywhere near as the trauma we suffered watching singing ringing tree!!
Thanks for the suggestion, it's in tonight's new video 👍👍
Another childrens show with puppets, but, this time, absolutely brilliant and forgotten is "Round The Bend".
It's like a child friendly version of Viz comic meets Spitting image.
Was awesome 👍
Yes!!! Nobody ever remembers it, there’s loads of episodes here on YT and it still holds up today. I think it got loads of complaints at the time. 🤣🐊
@@mgthestrange9098 here have a gander at this. ua-cam.com/video/XOc46bL67Fo/v-deo.htmlsi=mFTRPJ5LVuHEDLkm
I'll always remember Pzycho The Magnificents reassuring words to one of his victims. "It's a simple question of mind over matter...I don't mind and you don't matter!"😂
Watched the video, great stuff! 😄
Excellent- Cardiac Arrest, the first show written by Jed Mercurio (of Line of Duty fame) who was a Junior Doctor at the time. It follows the life of group of junior doctors around 2 separate wards of an NHS hospital as well as highlighting the poor management & corruption from the management of the hospital. it's excellently written & known for it's often dark & controversial depiction of the medical profession.
The Good: Soap (ABC 1977-81) - a parody of American soap operas. Had the usual soap opera tropes such as sex, adultery, and greed and mixed in outrageous topics such as alien abduction, religious cults, and demonic possession. Launched Billy Crystal's career.
The Bad: Joanie Loves Chachi (ABC 1982-83) - Takes the two least-likeable Happy Days characters and puts them a show where the two pursue a career in music. Just awful.
The Underrated: Quark (NBC 1977/1978) - Sci-fi comedy about Adam Quark - the captain of a space garbage collection ship. He yearns for real adventures and (un)fortunately gets them. The show parodies such sci-fi classics as Star Trek and Star Wars. A pity it only lasted eight episodes.
That Pig one was disturbing! Thank goodness i never saw it, im now going to have nightmares, thanks TFOOS.
Imagine walking into Pigsty & ordering a bacon sandwich.
Not to mention a pork pie, black pudding and crackling.
2:28 If you like Jackie Chan movies, you'll like "Martial Law". In my opinion it had the perfect blend of action, humor and heart. Also, the full scene with the chalkboard eraser is great.
More great westerns from the early 1960s include rawhide with Clint Eastwood, branded with chuck conners who had recently been “the rifleman” Johnny Yuma the rebel with a theme song sung by Johnny cash. And bonanza
Maverick took many pokes at these shows and their cliches, especially bonanza. Even so they are all very well done and very worthy of a revisit.
Without looking it up what did it say on palidin’s calling card?
High Chaparrel. The Virginian.
Marenghi is pure genius so much to enjoy on rewatching the series with so many little elements of TV production left there and each character their own amazing stereotype
4:53 and around there. The absolutely lovely Alice Lowe.
A suggestion for the excellent list is "Clive James in...." (LWT 1982 - 1987) and "Clive James postcard from..." (BBC & LWT 1989 - 1999). Very similar programs but with the original move of broadcaster it got a name change.
Clive James travel programs each episode focused on a different city and more often than not a specific event or personal experience in that location. His Las Vegas episode based around the Las Vegas grand prix, his episode in Japan featuring him appearing on Takeshi's Castle and trying to learn more about the Japanese approach to television or Hong Kong looking at the possible impact of the return of Hong Kong to Chinese rule.
These different approaches and experiences combined with his just wonderful use of language make these more than the standard travel program.
I remember Martial Law! The theme has stuck with me all these years and I always chuckled that Arsenio Hall was in it. I don't recall much about it other than those things, but I think it was pretty good. For a another weird children's show, check out Nickelodeon's Weinerville from the early 90's. I still don't know why that aired even for a minute.
I’m chuffed to see the Smell of Reeves and Mortimer get some love here
Love GMDP. Missed the original run but bought the DVD on the off-chance (it was probably on offer in HMV...) and really enjoyed it, so good. The whole thing was really well done IMO. That was my first introduction to Richard Ayoade (I was never really into the IT Crowd, though I don't know why as I like a lot of the cast...) and I have to disagree with you, I think he's hilarious. He was good on The Crystal Maze when C4 brought it back too, which I was glad about as I grew up enjoying the Richard O'Brien/Ed Tudor pole era.
I was completely unaware of Pigsty (I was probably slightly too young to remember) but that looks weird AF. I swear some writers of kids TV shows are high when they come up with these ideas.
Props for the Garth Merenghi mention. Police Squad cannot spell colour, and if I've not missed an episode, have you featured Danger 5 yet?
Love your content mate but I think I prefer when you tell us if it is rubbish etc at the start rather than waiting. Just my opinion.
Excellent - The Ritz and it's follow up special The Continental. I thought it was hilarious. Watched them again recently and I still find them silly.
Underrated - Dad with George Cole. The wife and I still greet each other with "Hello Alan".
How bout this for Over Rated Underrated and Awful: Saturday Night Live.
The Good: Seasons one to five: It's awfully hard to beat the original cast interms of actual talent.
The Bad: 1995 to 2002, when Will Farrel was on; especially the More Cowbell Scketch.
The Under rated; season 7 to 9 when Eddie Murphy Was on. Gumby Damn it was Awsome.
BFBS - is that telly for the forces? British Forces Broadcasting ... something?
Another suggestion for the excellent pile : That Mitchell and Webb look. From the "are we the baddies?" sketch to The (mis)adventures of Sir Digby Chicken Sandwich, to Numberwang, I never laughed so hard in my life. Even the game show which never refers to "the event" seemed like a prelude to COVID looking back on it now 🤔.
Yes, Nathan Barley was too good.
The Vicar episode was totally mental.
Talking of scaring the kids; Spine chillers. Ran in 1980 as part of children's bbc, about 5.25pm approx. Produced by the Jackanory producers for older kids. It had readings of classic ghost stories. Freddie Jones among the readers. Twenty ten min long episodes were made. Had a very good animated title sequence. Picked up complaints on Points of view and in the radio times about scaring the younger kids. Even the title sequence did that. Apparently. But it was the kind of thing the BBC used to try, and it was underrated.
Oh if we’re including kids’ TV show? Got one word for you.
Maaaarriaaaaaaan!
Which category? If will not take any Maid Marian and her Merry Men slander!
@@CarysCreatesThings Excellent of course!
@@rossallan3585Just checking! 😂 It really was a great show and the theme tune was amazing.
Darkplace and Police Squad are masterpieces.
I literally pissed myself laughing as a kid at Police Squad and I think it's still funny now
A long forgotten show from 1993 called Bakersfield P.D. was really funny but sadly only lasted one series.
I thought Pig Sty was a nightmare that I imagined. It was real after all
Sadly yes
The creepy Pigsty characters reminds me of The Amazing Live Sea-Monkeys from the early 90s with Howie Mandel. I think it was on before Pee-Wee’s Playhouse which is the only reason I sat through this nightmare fuel. There’s a good reason no one else remembers it.
An underrated show for me would be In living colour, it featured the Wayans brothers and also launched the career of Jim Carrey, although some people might not see that as a good thing
Best gag ever on Darkplace: "in the end she was like a candle in the wind - unreliable."
Another kids TV show was ITV's 'Animal Kwackers' produced by Yorkshire Television. A pop group who arrived on Earth from the planet 'Popland' consisting of a blue lion called 'Rory' on lead guitar, 'Boots', a tiger on bass, 'Twang', a monkey who was another guitarist and 'Bongo', a dog who was the drummer. The plot revolved around the group playing versions of well known pop songs and Rory telling the other members of the group and of course the audience a story. Essentially a slower paced British equivalent to America's Banana Splits. Not sure I'd call it excellent but perhaps underrated and worth looking at if only from a nostalgic point of view.
Very much of its time, for sure. Not only in the selection of, 'pop songs', (sometimes covering nursery rhymes), but the overall costume style. The fact they all had proportionately large heads for their bodies and static faces tended to weird you out a bit, though.
Rory, Rory tell us a story.....no idea how I remember that, must have been about 6 when it was on. My sister had an Animal Kwackers LP. Cant remember any of the songs on it
Interestingly enough, Sammo Hung is a long-term associate of Jackie Chan and does a lot of behind the scenes production work on Jackie's Hong Kong movies including fight choreography. He also trained as a child at the China Drama Academy, a Peking Opera School in Hong Kong alongside Jackie Chan, that's how far back their association goes.
Richard Ayoade is literally only funny ONCE as the character in the IT crowd. Thereafter he can only play this character in everything he has done since
Pigsty. F*****g hell! Forgot all about that one. Avoided that one altogether from my after school viewing schedule.
I can’t deal with this _Spatz_ hate again for the second time. I need a lie down!
🤣
Round the twist, Aussie drama/comdedy kids show that had aome memorable episodes to it
Plenty of Prisoner Cell Block H people in that too 👍
I still sing the theme tune to this. "Have you ever, ever felt like this? Have strange things happened, are you going round the twist?"
My ex-aunt's brother wrote the books.
Excellent: Red dwarf. One of the best Sci fi comedy shows ever made. All the cast just worked perfectly together especially series 3 with Robert lewellyn as Kryten.
Rubbish: Peep Show. One of the worst things Mitchell and Webb ever produced. I never like seeing someone else's perspective as I'm watching a TV series. Literally smelly dog eggs
Hate Mitchell and Webb
EXCELLENT +++
(Neil Gaiman’s) Neverwhere BBC2 1996. Six part TVseries that was THEN adapted into a novel.
Unique and extremely enjoyable adult fantasy based on a London ‘below’.
Lenny Henry worked with Neil Gaiman bring it to life.
Speaking of Lenny Henry- anyone remember ‘Chef!’ ?
That's two I have mentioned that have made it on to your show but of course chosen by other viewers ha ha.
Police Squad deserved more time to air, and don't name it Shirley!
Disliking Richard Ayoade is a hangin’ offence ‘round these parts, hombre!
Police Squad was brilliant! In a similar vein, Sledge Hammer! was a humorous send-up of the ultra macho rogue cop trope.
I know, IT crowd is awesome.
SWEET suffering Stingray Pigsty is Fugly. Glad i missed out on that one.
Ok. Here goes i guess.
Good. Come Outside. Lynda Baron swaps Nurse Gladys' moris Minor for an aeroplane and travels the country (and to spain in 1 episode) and explains how things are made and or how they work. Ok for little ones (which i was when this aired) but should never be rebooted!
Underrated. Joshua Jones. Literally feel like i'm the only one who remembers this show. Same art style as classic firemxn sam and postman pat.
2 immediately spring to mind for bad. Stupid and Sorry i've got no head. Both of them why....just...why! Dog Egg doesn't begin to cover them!
I recall Joshua Jones but from when I was too old for kid's tv
Loved Police Squad, wasn’t as much a fan of the Naked Gun films. As always my pick for hidden gem is Cloppa Castle. Made by a few of Gerry Anderson’s cast offs, had great British humour but was shunned by critics as all the puppets looked different styles to each other.
Good theme tune to it to
Your inclusion of "Police Squad" reminds me of mid-2010s show "Angie Tribeca."
I'll look it up cheers
Police Squad. Just brilliant!
I love Vic and Bob. Do you know about "House Of Fools" ? - Vic and Bob's bonkers but brilliant sitcom ?
Excellent Steptoe and Son. I remember watching repeats of this with my Nanna as kid, we both loved it. Rubbish The Royal Bodyguard. The brilliant David Jason's talents were wasted in this.
Police squad also took a lot from the old show “highway patrol” with Broderick Crawford
First time I've encountered Pigsty.I hope it's the last.Police Squad .. BRILLIANT parody!The reason given for its' demise,by executive Tony Thomopoulos?
"The viewer had to watch it to appreciate it." ⁉️
(I think he might have meant concentrate on it).
He seriously underestimated the intelligence of his audience. The statement makes clear his own IQ level.🤪👍
2012 A Touch of Cloth reminds me of Police Squad.
Police squad was excellent, there were references to Quincy as well, just a fantastic piss take of US police shows
Hi there. For what it’s worth, here’s my excellent, underrated and bad list.
Excellent. FRINGE. This is the best series I’ve ever watched of all time. The writing, production and acting is just perfect. You invest in the characters and it pays off. A lot of modern series makes their characters to dark and complex. Yes, they are complex but they are relatable, warm and human. You actually love them like a family. Walter, played by John Noble is the best fictional character ever created, and John brings him to life perfectly.
Underrated. Superman and Lois. Ok, my wife and I decided to watch this not expecting too much, how wrong we were. This is a great modern retelling of the superman story and Tyler Hoechlin is now my favourite Superman since Christopher Reeves. He embodies Clark and Superman perfectly. Yes it’s comic book stuff, but it’s made very well here. Mixing Superman’s dilemmas of finding balance between saving the world and being a husband and father.
Bad. Squid Game. I gave into the hype and decided to try and watch it. I made it almost to the end of the first episode, it’s pretty dire. I’ve no clue what was going on really and I just got very bored.
Anyway, that’s my round up. 😊
I didn't get time to watch Squid Game till well into the hype. In the first episode I found the lead character annoying and unlikeable. But I thought it's obviously the start of a character arc so I will have to bear with it. The second episode could be skipped and all you would miss would be the introduction of one supporting character. But from episode three on it really clicked and It held me after. It's worth sticking with.
@@paultapner2769I agree, I also enjoyed the real squid game show.
how about the Deadly Ernest Horror Show i'm sure it was late night on CH4 at the weekend and was a tribute to the horror film with guest characters on american TV; with a few running gags and terrible films i loved it
I'll look it up cheers
7:01 OMG! Is that you? You're look absolutely nothing like what I imagined. WOW!
Police squad so funny loved it
there is a cbbc show names jeopardy it was about students from a Scottish high school who went to Australia to study ufo rumors' etc it was done in found footage type fashion it got very mysterious and the ending could have been in 3 parts you where told to vote on which ending you would want and mysterious won but the other two i think now are lost media. anyways i thought the show was good don't know if anyone remembers this as it has never popped up again in any form
Reeves and Mortimer must be one of the most divisive tv programmes ever made.
I love it, but can see it’s not for every one. What I appreciate about it is that they don’t stop. They just go on with their nonsense, and only invite the audience to come along for the ride.
They're one of those acts, along with French & and Suanders, that I have to "be in the mood" to watch.
I like the format. Can you and the listeners tell me what you think of 'Hogan's Heroes'? I think it's OK, but can understand people being offended. I realize this does not fit in the format I just praised. Also, might a dislike of' 'Hogan's Heroes' inspired 'Heil, Honey I'm Home'?
Love Charlie Chuck!
Sorry, blind person here, who is it from Darkplace that you can’t stand?
Richard Ayoade
Thanks. I personally like Richard Ayoade but I can see why he might annoy some people, I thought it might be Matt Berry but he’s a legend!
Police squad was brillant.
Surely you can't be serious?
Excellent is still game, very funny Scottish sitcom about a load of OAP's
Utter, utter crap was Hold the sunshine, that awful show John Cleese did a few years ago with Alison Steadman, Big John fan, love monty python and adore fawlty towers, but thus was very boring and tame and sadly Cleese couldn't save it from being poo.
Underrated, I enjoyed Trollied, set in a fictional British supermarket, I particularly enjoyed the old lady (who was the mother in early doors) , who worked alongside Stephen tomkinson on the pharmacy counter, she was quite forgetful and a bit scatty and thought Tomkinson's charictor was a real doctor, quite a few familiar faces in it, shame it was only shown on sky 1, luckily they are all on YT (I don't have sky anymore)
Its been remade as Superstore in the USA, it's on Itv 2 a lot, nowhere near as good, all American remakes are never as good.
Superstore isn't a remake of Trollied. They're very different shows.
@@CarysCreatesThings my bad ,always though it was as they are quite similar
I've heard the cutaway gags in between scenes are similar to Trollied, and people have made comparisons because they're both set in shops. I guess it's similar to when some people thought Coupling was a British remake of Friends (I really didn't understand why people thought that either). I haven't watched much of Trollied but I really liked Superstore. It took me a while to get into, though.
i will probably get lashed for this but i i could not stand reeves and mortimor, i did not find it at all funny, maybe you have to understand the humour, its the same with the mighty boosh, the only thing i think noel fielding is funny in is the it crowd
i love reeves and Mortimer
I hate anything with Ant and Dec in it.
Same here
Those Santander ads they're doing right now are the only thing of theirs I've watched. And they get on my nerves. Not sure which one is which. i
🎉a new upload
All Crap except Police Squad. Try watching Labrats (UK)
Merenghi's: I just couldn't see the point...........
Reeves and Mortimer were awful
