exactly, I've been watching it for years!!! A classic!

+riogotti79 I'm Argentinian, English isn't even my native language, and I've LMAO with KUA for years.

+Laurie Eno this is one of my favourite tv shows of all time,everything about it is funny

+Laurie Eno As a Brit I can't stand this show!

Lerkio as a Belgian living in France i loooooooove it

I watched Father Ted, a few days ago. As well as on the nineties. One of my favourite of all time comedy shows. My other favourite one's are - Royle Family, Trigger Happy TV, Friday Night Dinner, Keeping Up Appearances, IT Crowd, Two Doors Down, One Foot In The Grave, Open All Hours. I just absolutely love dry humour, or sarcastic humour. 😊

(Father Ted is Irish)

Personally I am embarrassed to be speaking any semblance of the English language here in the US. Thank God we have our 2nd Amendment protections here in this country!! But poor Richard does not. SAD!!!

exactly that!

Cool. 😊

Thank god for that! The viewers here just DIDN'T GET IT!

Amen! That guy couldn't even understand the accent or follow the basic story. I wanted to slap him. He probably finds Dane Cook funny.

+Krzystof Citrus But no one else matters! ( wink )

the young guy is a complete idiot. not a confusing show at all.

+Krzystof Citrus I agree with you on this. I'm in my upper 20s, post college and hopefully still upwardly mobile but I find this show to be very funny. Honestly, this is one of my favorite shows of all time

+dave h I thought that but then he WAS the only one who liked it AND he liked Onslow! I love all Jeffry Hughes characters,Onslow,Twiggy and Eddie Yates,he was such a brilliant comedy actor and a great loss to us,may he RIP!

I'm 33 now by the way and watched it on PBS when I was in high school

+Jeremy Doe I think the guy was either deliberately misunderstanding stuff or he's an idiot.

+The Batman The guy is an idiot AND was deliberately misunderstanding the program because he is also a sneering asshole.

+Matthew Brick Yep. That's how I saw it. I'm 44 and I've loved British television for as long as I can remember. WAY more than 3 shows, too.

+The Batman jajaaa! if he's not an idiot, that was a really good acting !

Jeroen Stobbe You'd assume they would get that it was a joke and not try to turn it into a PSA for leaving dogs in cars...

And the dog always seems to bark mostly at Hyacinth, never when Richard walked by. It was a running joke. It seemed to get lost on this group. I guess they just did not realize Hyacinth's personality and disposition.

+Mark Oglesby Spot-on. So much US comedy seems to be based around unbearable, snarky sarcasm. I always preferred our stuff - desperate no-hopers just trying to survive (Reggie Perrin, Steptoe & Son, Bottom, etc).

+Bigyeti Technologies Yanks aren't even good at sarcasm. I think they also tend to over act a bit, they tell jokes in a way that is saying "look at me i'm telling a joke".

+Bigyeti Technologies Best Analysis Ever

+Bigyeti Technologies That's pretty true in general. Most American comedy leads are just a walking bag of one liners. But then you get shows like the Simpsons, South Park and Louie where the main characters do have flaws and the characters satirise not only themselves but America as a whole too. We also have the smartarse characters too.

Johnny Torpedo Yeah, this I don't understand. The cartoon sit-coms such as the products of Groening and MacFarlane are excellent and have no laughter track,

+cx1735 And in America they tolerate aspiration, and even find it noble and decent (hence feeling sorry for her), while in Britain we see it as pretentious and risible.

+cx1735 agreed they dont have OUR class system, or the deep roots it carries. But i think its always crazy and ridiculous when the US claim they dont have a class system at all...

+cx1735 This video looks like all an act to me. I think a lot of (maybe just more mature? older?) Americans love Keeping Up Appearances for what it is - a well-written comedy of manners. And unlike, say, some other UK-grown programs rerun here over the years, we get the dialogue (without straining to understand the dialect or quite grasping the context)! As for the class thing, I never fully understood the differences between the U.S. and our former colonial "parent," but your system sure has led to some great comedy. P.S. In the U.S. the word "posh" was never quite used as you use it over there, but recently it seems the British use (to describe what we would call "rich" or wealthy) is becoming much more common.

+70sleftover Yep, you've definitely got it. Except for "posh", that's something to do with class, rather than money. For example, Wayne Rooney has a lot of money, nice cars and a swanky house, but he's definitely not posh, because he has a thick working class accent and has little in the way of panache or style. Keira Knighley would be considered "posh", because she has grace and a Home Counties accent.

+leopold When ships sailed from Liverpool to India the very rich enjoyed the Port side Out and the Starboard Home because they got the sunny side both ways. Crew marked their luggage with P.O.S.H.

You could syringe his whole brain and still think he had blocked ears. There's just nothing going on upstairs.

Fete Fatale just wow - so perfctly put. Hahahaha

that guy in the black shirt has absolutely no sense of humor, omg us brits are pure splitting our sides and they're sitting trying to work out what is funny...

Dialogue. Learn to spell

@@jimmymalone9139 depends what part of the world you’re from. Learn to not be so ignorant.

Matthew Brick Can you believe how sad you sound right now....

@Sideways Rain youre right. didnt mean "Sad". i just thought what he said was over the top

I don't know who posted this under my name but it wasn't me.....WTH...?????.....I didn't even find this show til a few months ago.....WTH is going on?????

betty cogswell Huh ?

@@bettycogswell9851 what?

+maria cummings The dog only barked at Hyacinth and it was the dog's home with the windows down. I loved that bit!

nice one alexan

Mr Bean...uurgh! Not one of Rowan Atkinson's best. He was much funnier in Blackadder.

yeah but the yanks love Bean which is odd

ab fab was great realy miss it

Gabriela Lopetegui well your group of friends doesn’t represent americans in general either, so... but they closer..

Eh I watched it in my house growing up and still have a fondness for it. I'm 32 now. Patricia Routledge is a comedy legend. Recommend checking out the opera sketch she did on stage and possibly KItty, written by Victoria Wood, although I've shown it to non-Brits and they didn't get it.

The Royle Family. Of course! Hadn't thought of that one.

Matthew Thomas More suggestions.... Goodness Gracious Me? Drop the dead donkey?

You did put only fools in there 😰

+Jessica English Last of the summer wine(Three old guys cause mayhem as they grow old disgracefully), Open All Hours(Miserly shopkeeper & his put upon nephew) The Fast Show(Brilliant character sketches) To appreciate a lot of British humour you need to know about our class system & how they interact.

Bottom and The Young Ones, would love to see this. One Foot in the Grave, and Red Dwarf too! I have to introduce these programmes to Tennesse soon lol

trip2themoon tiny? Lol it's big... Even a phone wouldn't make any diffrerence if they can see...

Yeah, I'm American and can say the same.

I love watching Mrs Brown's Boys. So funny.

you got it francis bang on

Well said, Brett. Well said. (And a brain cell was born) 😘

Oh come on now! Am I the only male on earth who wishes that Richard, or Emmett, or even the Vicar would give that bitch a good swift, LITERAL kick in the "c"?!?! I understand you can use that "c" word in Britain without causing nearly as much offense as in the US. But then again maybe they don't like to hear it from a cheeky yank. Just goes to show how far apart British and US sentiments have drifted apart.

And yet, Dame Routledge is doing something that successive quasi-left-liberal US administrations (quasi-left-liberal by US standards, anyway) have been unable to do,ie, move US politics substantially to the LEFT!!! (again, left by American standards). And to think all it took was a despicable, crass reactionary woman, allegedly human. But, one thing still puzzles me and that is, by what stretch of the imagination can the British imagine this to be comedy!?!? Oscar Hammerstein the 2nd really got it so right when composing those lyrics to the immortal SOUTH PACIFIC. "There is nothing you can name that is anything like a DAME!!!"

Well then, maybe it is for the best that Britain comes to grips with the fact that the US is far too uncivilized/uncivilised to .ever be taken seriously as the UK'S ally ever again. Even when things go awry in Hyacinth's world she never gets a good swift kick in the "c" (insidey parts).. Are you getting some idea now of just how uncivilized/uncivilised we in the US are. I'm sorry if this offends but please understand I mean a literal KICK. Even if Hyacinth were my gran, or mom, or an otherwise favorite aunt she would be in a world of hurt between her legs. Please inform your mp that the US should no longer be a member of NATO, and on the positive side for the UK, you won't get involved with any more of our major BLUNDERS in the mid-east. It will work to the benefit of both our nations, I hope you understand. Cheers!

But, from the US side of the pond maybe that's precisely the point! I'm sorry if you don't like to hear it but in a nation with 2nd Amendment guarantees, Hyacinth 'Bukay' would likely be in constant physical danger and further more, Dame Routledge would no doubt have to have her own security detail for the rest of her life. Now, if this is too uncivilized/uncivilised for you to deal with, I suggest you appeal to your local mp to have the US ejected from NATO, and all other security agreements, seriously. If this should actually ever occur, it can be said that Dame Routledge has had a far greater influence on geopolitics than Baroness Thatcher ever could have imagined in her time, and that's no mean accomplishment. (and it will keep the UK from any further BLUNDERS in the Middle East, at the request/behest of dubious US leadership. It could work well for all us!). And all of this is in keeping with the Spirit of 1776 that we celebrate for the the 248th time on this very day!

Oh, and Hyacinth Bucket from "Keeping Up Appearances" with her white, slimline telephone who kept getting calls from the Chinese take-away... LOL

Wanita Brown I love Keeping up Appreances and I leave in Texas I started watching it on PBS and now I see it on Netflex.

We're in Tennessee. Now I wonder if we southerners are drawn to it! From my experience living in a small southern town, I've known more than a couple ladies who put me in the mind of Hyacinth!

My aunt was exactly like Hyacinth she would make you take of your shoes, she even had a resemblance like her. I think the show is awesome.
