'Chums' wasn't a Sitcom as such. It was a weekly sketch on SMTV live.
Was coming on to say just that. Liking it or not is irrelevant. It's not a TV show and doesn't fit in here.
@@ToniMcGintyA couple of us replied to the original comment saying the same thing! The person who recommended it said they assumed it was turned into a TV series because they saw a DVD of it in the shops.
@@CarysCreatesThings Bad assumption on their part. There have been loads of DVDs of sketches, Ali G, Innit was made up from his segments from The 11 O'Clock Show, for example...
As bad as Chums was it wasn't really a stand alone series, it was just a segment on SMTV. Coupling was probably the closet thing to a UK version of friends which was actually really good, funnily enough they did try and do an American version of it as well, which was rubbish
As for Underrated, Did you see Early Doors? A comedy set entirely in a Manchester Pub. Staring Craig Cash, John Henshaw and a young James McAvoy. If you enjoy the Royle Family you might like it.
Loved that, it was as moving as it is funny in parts. I recently watched it on iPlayer, it still holds up apart from the indoor smoking.
Four words - Kitten Kong, the end!
I'd nominate Police Squad! as an underrated show. It was the predecessor to The Naked Gun from the Zucker-Abrahams-Zucker partnership. Lots of one-liners, visual gags and, of course, Leslie Nielsen deadpan delivery. Only had one series (of which only four episodes aired in the US) but I loved it when I acquired a DVD of the series. Just good silly fun.
They repeated them on late night ITV in the mid 90s when the Naked Gun films were popular, luckily my dad taped them so got to watch them and they were great, the films obviously borrowed quite a bit but the tv format worked really well for that humor. Very underrated I’d say.
@@Toooldforthis78 So very underrated
Freddy's Nightmares could have been so much better, but was on a TV budget and it showed.
Loved The Goodies at the time, it was just plain silly.
And Chums was a mick-take of Friends on SMTV, it was just a weekly sketch.
I really enjoyed Carnivale.
Me too. It needed at least one more season.
It's one of my favorite series ever
How about Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. This was a vehicle for the late Matthew Perry post Friends and was about the goings on behind the scenes of a Saturday Night Live style show. I quite liked it but sadly, the powers that be didn’t as it got cancelled after only 1 series
Underrated and, I'm sure, totally forgotten: "Murder in Small Town X."
A group of ten contestants are shipped to a fictitious town filled with actors playing all sorts of strange characters where they must solve a murder.
Quite chilling at times and I thought the finale was fantastically frightening!
Sounds like 'The Murder Game', filmed mostly in Maldon, Essex. At the end of each episode the two contestants up for elimination were sent to two different locations, one of which would hold a new piece of information, the other a zoom-in with a shaky camera.
@@MarcusBurkenhare That reminds me of 'Whodunnit?'. ITV early monday night show from the 70's. Game show of sorts where there would be a drama performed showing a murder story and studio panellists would have to work out who the killer was. Good show.
@@paultapner2769 my brother recently introduced me to 'Whodunit?'. It was interesting to see how it went from mostly serious to almost comical in the later series.
@@MarcusBurkenhare Perhaps a UK version of it, or visa versa?
@@lordbloodrah I just looked it up and Murder Game was the remake, a couple of years later.
"Garden Gnomes" 😂 (Ant & Dec reference).
I remember Brenda Blethyn in Chance In A million with Simon Callow, Brilliant. She seemed to spend a lot of episodes in her underwear!
As a horror fan masters of horror was very good, especially the takaashii Mike one
Chums was like a 5 min sketch on SMTV. Ya might as well say I did not like Siadwel in naked video. ( which would be wrong...last will and testical mam!)
Midnight Texas was good thou...pity it got cancelled. Keep on meaning to read the books.
I liked carnivale and outside edge. One i thought was excellent was common as muck
I own the Chums VHS tape (around the SM:TV reunion during that Christmas in lockdown I got nostalgic about SM:TV, so i brought the Chums tape even though I was only 6 when Ant & Dec left so I only remembered Chums vaguely , the following show in the time slot Ministry of Mayhem was more my era, anyway not the point) and its literally just random episodes of Chums put together that broadcast as the sketch it was in the episodes of Chums, no additional full length episodes or anything.
The only problem with Freddy's Nightmares is that Freddy is a bad person. There is no reason to like him. They did nothing to alter his backstory to make him someone you did not want to run away from. This is like choosing to have Jeffrey Dahmer as your horror host.
"Only When I Laugh" always made me H.A.P.P.Y. Although the, let's say, stereotypical character of Gupta wouldn't fly, now... It was hilarious, then.
I loved Oh Doctor Beeching! for the short time that it aired.
Ant & Dec really are a product of their time though. It's like TV made for the hard of thinking. The saddest thing is though, that they are far from the worst thing on TV over the past 20 years.
Chums was like Friends but was actually funny and vastly superior to that appalling US show. Me and wifey usd to look forward to it every Saturday morning. Brilliant!
Insufferable garden gnomes 🤣 Love it, nice one Retro TV, agree with that, can't stand Prat & Dick
The "goodies" were the voice over artists for the cartoon "bannana man"
The Goodies in my opinion suffers from the "fondly remembered by 50-somethings, but actually, when you watch it now, it's utter shit" syndrome. I challenge you to watch a full episode.
I did. Went through the complete box set a few years back. Loved it.
My son watches it occasionally, to me it’s utterly unwatchable but he’s seven and loves it, thinks it’s hilarious…
Freddy's Nightmares was a great horror anthology series, very inventive and the person's description was spot on, it also had before they were famous cameos from various actors like Brad Pitt and Lori Petty
The Goodies was quite contemporary for its time. It was like a kid's show, but for grown-ups. Not that it stopped us kids watching it. We didn't always understand a lot of the nuances of the humour involved, but it didn't matter as it made up for it in the silly, slapstick cartoon visual comedy that the show always had in it's outdoors sketches. Some of the humour hasn't aged well, and there's more than a touch of nostalgia involved in regard to why it's still worth watching, but overall, it's still as funny now as it was way back when.
I don't know any of the others mentioned. I think they're largely from a period when I'd become far more selective of the shows I watched, particularly in the 90's and beyond. Ant and Dec should have stuck to being PJ and Duncan. Everything else they did after that was utter pants, trying desperate to be funny by imitating Morecombe and Wise.
I`ll throw in some suggestions.
Excellent- The beautiful People (BBC 2 2008-2009)- Based on the book it tells the story of Simon Doonan growing up in Reading in the late 1990`s and how he obtained various possessions in his life. It has a great cast also including Layton Williams, Olivia Coleman and Meera Syal.
Under rated- Stella Street (BBC 2 1997-2001)- Set in Surbiton it is set in a fictional street where where some of the biggest names from film and tv live as neighbours including the Rolling stones, Michael Cane and Roger Moore.
Rubbish- Lee Evans So what now (BBC 1 2001) Lee Evans in a Sitcom should work but this was just dire. Only 1 series was made but it was just terrible, poorly written and just made no sense what so ever.
I loved Beautiful People.
@@CarysCreatesThings It was great. Loved all the 90`s references also. It`s a show that has kinda been largely forgotten
I just thought of a massively underrated show - Roger Roger, written by John Sullivan. It had Robert Daws in it. And Philip Glenister. I thought it was really good and no-one ever watched it.
I loved Masters of Horror! Meatloaf was even in an episode. I enjoyed Freddy's Nightmares, but mostly the episodes with Robert Englund. Watching now, it's funny to see stars like Mariska Hargitay and Brad Pitt in it. Friday the 13th the Series was something I LOVED as a kid, especially the episodes with the cursed compact. Not sure if you've mentioned that series or not, but it's definitely underrated. Jason wasn't in it, in fact he had nothing to do with it, but it was good so I didn't care.
Masters of horror was on Amazon, obviously a bit inconsistent being anthology with different directors but mostly really good
Never realised that about the Goodies title being their names. Well I never. I got the complete series box set a few years back and watched it right through. It still stands up really well. Mind you you have to be a child of the 70's to recognise some of the guest stars. How many people remember Michael Barrett now? A friend of mine was an extra in the disco dancing episode. I doubt the South Africa episode would get repeated as it features people in Blackface. But they do that to have a dig at racism. So it's smarter than modern audiences might think. The chase scene in that episode was filmed in Swanage High St, in Dorset. A place I know well. So looking at it trying to be South Africa is rather strange.
Two things I remembered: Underrated: Who Dares Wins. Late saturday night comedy show on channel four. With Rory McGrath. Philip Pope. Julia Hills and Tony Robinson among others. Studio based with live comedy and also sketches. Very post watershed. Very funny.
And a show I liked when I was about seven and a bit. Bonny! BBC Scotland made children's show about the postmistress of a small village. Who writes stories in which she is a pirate queen and her local antagonist is her arch enemy. With various other character from real world scenes also having parts. Can vaguely the theme and some of the title sequence. But can't find any clips, so no idea how it would stand up now.
I loved the Grbbies. I'm Sorry, I'll Read That Again; I loved The Goodies.
of course I can't count them. I'm a musician and we can only count to 4.
The Goodies - a classic. Obviously wouldn't air today, devoid of context the blackface stuff doesn't stand up. And as others have said, "Chums" was just a quick skit in another show. The research is getting slack now, any old crap is being thrown in.
Going to repeat my message from another video :)
Excellent: Coupling - some of the best, surprisingly weird, amazingly silly writing. People who called it "The UK Friends" clearly hadn't watched it, cos it was a million times better.
Underrated: Absolute Power - One of my very very favourite shows. Stephen Fry perfectly cast as an absolute bastard, and brilliant character work by the supporting casts. The Bin Laden buying British Airways episode never ceases to make me howl.
Awful: Citizen Khan - Always found it incredibly bizarre in that it seemed to be perpetuating unhealthy stereotypes, but was constantly marketed as challenging them. Whichever it was doing though, it just wasn't funny which is my biggest issue with it.
If you use any of this, just call me Zee, I'd hate to make you struggle with trying to pronounce the username :)
I love the goodies it was funny daft and I loved their record the funky gibbon
Chums wasn't a show! it was a couple of minute segment in another show!
the awful US remake of "the prisoner" in mid 2000's absoloute garbage! and it had Ian Mckellan in it!!
chums is not really tv show it was a part of smtv live
Tales of the golden monkey was good, as was eerie Indiana and the wonder years
Yeah the Goodies was a great show love watching it when I was younger it was on the ABC In Australia it was a very Popular here but this video was great ❤️🤍💙🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
The Freddy series is, IMO, the best of the horror movie spin-offs that weren't actually about the movies. Far better than the weird Canadian "Poltergeist: The Legacy" or the 80's "Friday the 13th: The Series". Both of which ran far longer for some odd reason.
An underrated one the dustbin men only because of Winston
brilliant selection
Freddy's nightmares was good intermittently
Only when I laugh was passable, figgis was an ill terry Collier, memorable theme tune
It was dogshit 😅
Outside edge was good
I always thought coupling was brilliant
I loved the states man but I hated only when I laughed I found it was boring and unfunny but my grandad found it funny. Didn’t the goodies start on the bbc but moved too itv but flopped ?
Check out better Off Ted, dammit.
That is a brilliant show
Agreed; it was cancelled way too soon
Only when I laugh was passably, figgis was an ill terry Collier
Think your a bit old for me
How old are you?
I would also say I'm too old.for ant Dec and cat deeley at 42 hate them
