Oooh 109 each for Toast of London and This Country lol. Hopefully one of them actually wins and it's not another tie breaker poll 😄 I haven't seen either of them but want to so I'm happy either way 👏🏻

2023-08-01 17:16:34 +0000 UTCDinnerladies may not be to everyone's taste but it's objectively not a poor show IMHO. It's exceptionally well written, Victoria Wood knew what she was doing. But yes, it's very much its own thing, somewhat sweet and old-fashioned. I'm very fond of it but can see it wouldn't be everyone's cup of tea.
Ash Jeffries
2023-07-31 02:47:21 +0000 UTCDefinitely. Given the current style of comedy currently being reacted to by Josh, I do think This Country is notably different.
Ash Jeffries
2023-07-31 02:42:44 +0000 UTCI think Josh would really enjoy it. It's naturalistic/cringe humour in the vein of The Office and The Royle Family which Josh very much enjoyed.
Ash Jeffries
2023-07-31 02:39:58 +0000 UTCCould Ted Lasso be added to a future poll? I just binged the series for the first time and can honestly say it's one of the best shows I've ever seen. Hilarious and heartwarming in equal measure, and also a great crossover between British and American humour!
Billy Mitchell
2023-07-30 21:28:58 +0000 UTCI'm gonna do a Keir Starmer here and sit firmly on the fence. I've seen Toast of London and really liked it (plus we know Josh loves Matt Berry). I've never seen This Country, but it looks interesting. Would it appeal to an American? (I know we've gone through this question so many times and every time Josh has loved it).
Adam
2023-07-29 19:19:30 +0000 UTCAgreed, Detectorists is a great show!
PunchyPariah
2023-07-29 16:05:36 +0000 UTCthat is very true, we do have a lot of crap on TV here amoungst the good stuff
mrtheevilmage
2023-07-29 12:34:05 +0000 UTCit's 102-103 in favour of TC.. I really hope Toast wins! It's right up Josh's street!
Austin Stratton
2023-07-29 11:33:02 +0000 UTCI hope This Country wins, something a bit different but hilarious!
Jessica Rose
2023-07-29 08:18:48 +0000 UTCVote Toast. It’s something Josh would really enjoy. The Detectorists needs to be added to a poll too!
jon d
2023-07-28 21:49:33 +0000 UTCWhichever loses will take over from Boosh I expect. Only one season left of Boosh (thankfully).
Sam
2023-07-28 09:57:56 +0000 UTC98 votes each right now.. super close
Austin Stratton
2023-07-28 09:53:47 +0000 UTCyeah he has always liked Matt berry in IT crowd Darkplace the Boosh and WWDITS so once this country is over hopefully Toast will finally win
Nathan
2023-07-28 08:36:51 +0000 UTCHe will enjoy toast MUCH more than this country I was glad to see it winning for a while but looks like that hope is over lol but there is always the next poll. Looks like it’ll have a chance once this country is done.
Nathan
2023-07-28 08:33:32 +0000 UTCToast always just misses out.. though I'm a fan of This Country and Man Down too so any of them are good.. but I think Josh would enjoy Toast a lot more
Austin Stratton

Austin Stratton
2023-07-27 21:53:26 +0000 UTCI saw someone request Dinner Ladies once =s just because it's British doesn't mean it's good
C Dread
2023-07-27 20:25:40 +0000 UTCDelighted to see This Country doing so well! Having grown up in a Cotswold village and knowing a couple of the cast (one of whom is no longer with us, RIP Michael), it's a brilliant show and scarily accurate (and hilarious because of it!).
Ash Jeffries
2023-07-27 16:31:35 +0000 UTCloved it as a teenager. Rewatched it recently and it isn't as good as i remember
Chris
2023-07-27 12:57:42 +0000 UTCDetectorists is excellent. AWP would be tricky initially but am just thinking its the same writers as porridge so...
Chris
2023-07-27 12:57:06 +0000 UTCI know he's done most of the British classics already, but Gimme Gimme Gimme... my God, how cringe. I do wish Game On got more votes but I don't think anyone outside of the millennials knows what it even is. It is very 90's but it's genuinely quite funny throughout.
Luke Barron
2023-07-27 10:50:01 +0000 UTCMisfits has 38 episodes. It's on the long show poll.
Sam
2023-07-27 10:04:42 +0000 UTCHouse of Fools is massively underrated... In fact, it never even comes above the radar when UK TV comedy is mentioned and it's a great shame but it's a hidden gem, absolute pure gold that I go back to regularly... All the episodes are strong until the last few episodes of the last seson as well... Matt Berry is awesome as usual in it as well... The only thing I've not enjoyed of Matt Berry is Toast of Tinsel Town which was absolutely awful and tarnished the Toast legacy somewhat.
BigChanChan
2023-07-27 08:30:23 +0000 UTCIn all honesty, it's hasn't aged well and I hate that saying lol but it hasn't... I loved it as a kid but after just watching it again, it's a very weak, gentle comedy that depends on very base humour... It's okay but nothing special now that I've matured and recognise good writing.
BigChanChan
2023-07-27 08:25:03 +0000 UTCThe first 2 seasons are great and then political correctness took over and they ruined it in S3... I can only find it on YT in potato quality as well.
BigChanChan
2023-07-27 08:22:09 +0000 UTCIt's close... Toast of London is good as well which is leading on the poll at the moment but not quite as consistently funny as Man Down.
BigChanChan
2023-07-27 08:20:21 +0000 UTCIt's in my top 5 all time fave UK TV comedies.
BigChanChan
2023-07-27 08:18:50 +0000 UTCTouche sir
John
2023-07-27 00:56:51 +0000 UTCMisfits os a great idea
John
2023-07-27 00:56:01 +0000 UTCYou not doing Misfits?
Dannythedoodle
2023-07-26 23:06:44 +0000 UTCyesssss
Austin Stratton
2023-07-26 22:58:43 +0000 UTCTOAST OF LONDON! glad to see its winning!
Nathan
2023-07-26 21:00:22 +0000 UTCUgh.. Gimme Gimme Gimme sucks
Stephen
2023-07-26 20:50:09 +0000 UTCIt was letting me vote for 1 last night and only 2 today 😁
BelladonnicHazeyJaneII
2023-07-26 19:47:20 +0000 UTCSame here i couldn't get into toast i just dunno why though cause I love matt berry in everything else
John
2023-07-26 19:42:46 +0000 UTCNooooooo lol.
John
2023-07-26 19:41:52 +0000 UTCIm curious how he'd manage with the geordie accent like. Great show though. Havent seen the other one is it good?
John
2023-07-26 19:41:31 +0000 UTCGikme gimme gimme should obviously be winning
John
2023-07-26 19:40:35 +0000 UTCUgh.. man down sucks
John
2023-07-26 19:39:59 +0000 UTCDefinitely need PhoneShop and Detectorists on there at some point. Of these I've only seen Man Down, and it's a fun time (absolutely insane cameo later on too that only affirmed my love for the man involved even more, especially their reasoning for wanting to get involved). Tried Toast of London years back and for whatever reason it just didn't click. Then again that happens with a lot of shows that I eventually love when I return to them.
Relyx
2023-07-26 19:15:36 +0000 UTCBeen at least a year since a show I voted for won. 😂

2023-07-26 18:17:49 +0000 UTCNathan Barley is genius
Retro Ravi
2023-07-26 15:13:45 +0000 UTCWould love to see murder in successville at some point, so unique and funny
Luke Porcher
2023-07-26 14:56:12 +0000 UTCPlease Man Down 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Michael Harrop
2023-07-26 14:52:28 +0000 UTCNot looking good anymore 🤦♂️
Michael Harrop
2023-07-26 14:52:13 +0000 UTCDoh i had high hopes for Thin Blue Line this time after the last poll, but I guess its a new crop of voters so it isnt doing as well
Danny
2023-07-26 13:41:58 +0000 UTCdang , not a single show for me here :( oof... il just throw a vote at barley....or something with matt berry in xD
TheHigh
2023-07-26 11:51:59 +0000 UTCLooking good for Man Down... It's been close so many times... It's right up Josh's street and he's going to love it if it wins.
BigChanChan
2023-07-26 10:31:56 +0000 UTCMine is working too now.
BigChanChan
2023-07-26 10:30:57 +0000 UTCMight be showing my age here but can't believe Game On doesn't get more votes 😔
Coleyman
2023-07-26 07:54:55 +0000 UTCCan you add detectorists and Auf Wiedersehen Pet to some polls please...
Chris
2023-07-26 07:37:58 +0000 UTCNathan Barely is great. Written by the guy who did brass eye and the guy behind black mirror.
Chris
2023-07-26 07:37:40 +0000 UTCThis is the short show poll so they have to meet the criteria of 26 eps or less. Both Steptoe&Son and Benidorm were on the last long show poll we had, so when the next Wednesday, Thursday or Friday poll comes up they should be on there.
MJ87
2023-07-26 06:08:11 +0000 UTCHouse of Fools and Toast of London are my top choices on this list, If only to give Josh that rich, rich, Matt Berry goodness!
Craig Fleming
2023-07-26 05:48:21 +0000 UTCConsidering how positively Josh reacts to Matt Berry in WWDITS, I’d really enjoy seeing him react to Toast of London. Fingers crossed.
PunchyPariah
2023-07-26 04:40:27 +0000 UTCHow is 'Benidorm' not on here? Its already sacrilege that 'Steptoe and Son' has been elbowed but the level of excrement being suggested (The Thin Blue Line ffs.. ) is absurdl!!!
Rob Walters
2023-07-26 04:20:51 +0000 UTCHopefully one day it'll make it. Had thought it would make a good follow-on to Mr Bean.
Funny That
2023-07-26 03:12:24 +0000 UTCGood shout, this was a fantastic show!
Chris H
2023-07-26 02:58:37 +0000 UTCYep, probably a couple of years ago now or feels like it
Kieran B
2023-07-26 00:01:30 +0000 UTCUpstart Crow needs more love.. it is very funny.. David Mitchell plays it so well.. clever comedy
Austin Stratton
2023-07-26 00:01:24 +0000 UTCCan’t believe some mother do ave em, hasn’t won yet I’ve be gone a whole year and it still hasn’t won 🥺

2023-07-26 00:00:37 +0000 UTCNever watched it, but yes, I'd be up for that. Heard nothing but purple prose about it.
Saul
2023-07-25 23:46:53 +0000 UTCIt is up there on th polls for me, right at the start, in case you couldn't see it.
Saul
2023-07-25 23:45:30 +0000 UTCHave to be frank, don't see much that leaps out at me on this list. Of the stuff I've seen and liked...Nathan Barley deserves a rewatch. I'm pretty sure it's improved over time as the ridiculously high expectations around it have disappeared and people can appreciate it for what it is. But there's no way that'll win. And I had a soft spot for Him and Her, although that was more character-based than laugh out loud. That won't win either. I remember Green Wing as funny, and that's doing okay so far. Of the stuff I haven't seen I've heard good things about Stath Lets Flats and This Country, so would be pleased if any of them won. And I've seen a bit of Toast Of London and didn't get what it was trying to do, but I've been proven wrong so many times on this channel, and people keep raving about it, so do what you will voters. I'm prepared to spread my votes around like a very cheap date.
Saul
2023-07-25 23:43:12 +0000 UTCMine is now working. Strange!
Ash Jeffries
2023-07-25 23:41:10 +0000 UTCYeah, same for me... It will only let me vote for one on the app.
BigChanChan
2023-07-25 23:40:28 +0000 UTCMe too. Must be fixed.

Saul
2023-07-25 23:35:10 +0000 UTCThe Nick Frost show? Can't remember much of it, but remember finding it amiable.
Saul
2023-07-25 23:34:28 +0000 UTCWeird. Works in a browser but not on the Patreon app. Usually fine voting in the app.
Ash Jeffries
2023-07-25 23:33:48 +0000 UTCLets me vote for multiple ones
Saul
2023-07-25 23:31:43 +0000 UTCWould love to see Fleabag make it to the next poll. Anyone with me?
Kieran

Jake Francis
2023-07-25 23:31:13 +0000 UTCThink there's a glitch with this poll as you can only vote for one show...
Ash Jeffries
2023-07-25 23:30:08 +0000 UTCOoooh TIE '86 would be fantastic. A difficult watch at times, but brilliant television.
Georgia
2023-07-25 23:27:38 +0000 UTCDetectorists is WONDERFUL. Would love to see Josh react to it. 🙏

Michael Harrop
2023-07-25 23:06:25 +0000 UTCDid anyone ever request the show “The Detectorists” Josh? It’s McKenzie Crook’s (was Gareth on The Office) series about the lives of two metal detectorists. Great little show :) cheers
