And the (genuine) celeb appeals for the (not genuine) plight of a poor baby elephant, so scared he'd hidden his head/trunk up his backside since birth...

...and the dangers of the deadly new drug, "cake", and convincing a MP to stand up and announce it in the House of Commons. "it affects a part of the brain known as Shatner's Basoon...".:LOL:

Loads of stuff from the archives been mentioned, Blackadder being my personal favourite by far.

Struggling to think of decent current shows, especially sitcoms, but there are a few panel shows which stick out for me

HIGNFY
QI
A League of Their Own
Mock the Week
 
Peep Show
I'm Alan Partridge
Father Ted
Black Books
Simpsons
Family Guy
The Office
Fast Show
Phoenix Nights
The Thick of It
Mock the Week (when Frankie Boyle was on it years ago)
HIGNFY
Brass Eye
Facejacker/Fonejacker (not best ever but some hilarious moments in both)
Trigger Happy TV was pretty good at the time.

... loads more I can't think of off the top of my head!

"they don't deserve punishment, they deserve GUNISHMENT!"

"Paedophiles share more genes with crabs than they do with you and me.... there's no real evidence for it but it's scientific fact" - Dr. Fox.

Shame that too many people didn't see the satire and thought it was promoting paedophilia :bang:

Not strictly a comedy show but It's a Knockout was hilarious, so many people watching can't have been wrong.
