Its strange how its sad to watch them as its like lookinh at a relative who has died as you loved the shows.
but its strange as i can watch uk old comedy such as rising damp and so on, which i also love, but i find i just can watch uk comedy and enjoy them.
its somthing unique i have noticed about usa comedy is that you seem to get to know the characters as part of the family.
i watched the cosby show last night on youtube and forgot how much i loved it.

UK comedy is all about the laughs - Rising Damp is a great example - You will never fall in love with 'Rigsby'....
US comedy is about the characters - You relate to them and see the comparisons with your own life.
