Top 10 Cult Comedy List

Amazon have a Top 10 Cult Comedy list. Lists are impossible to get right, but the author J.S. Teare has had a good go:

Here is the list:

1) Brass Eye - The master Chris Morris actually gets the number one and two spot. Chris Morris once stood behind me at the Soho Theatre at a packed Jerry Sadowitz gig. Happiest day of my life. 

2) Day to Day - Chris Morris, Armando Iannucci and Coogan. I saw Armando give a lecture on media at some government office in Whitehall back in the 90's. We went for a beer afterwards and I met his wife. Lovely, lovely couple. 

3) Garth Marenghi - My mate Bereftwick hates this. He is very old fashioned. I must get a copy.

4) Mighty Boosch - Genius (a term used too much these days, but this really is Renaissance Man type genius). I often see Julian Barrett at my local (Coach n Horses). He is a very excellent bloke. Check out his stand up - astonishing beauteousness

5) Catterick - I haven't got this, and this is why lists are excellent. I didn't know about this until I read the article. I'm a huge fan of Morwenna Banks, Vic and Bob too. Reece Shearsmith too (Surprised The League of Gentleman didn't make the cut). On my 'Desire Pyre'.

6) Curb Your Enthu... I can never remember the name of this hugely popular American confection. Stumps everyone down the pub too. Highly suspicious of this. Not sure I like it. Not really my cuppa.

7) Black Books - Seeing Bill Bailey play the piano with spoons is up there with the chandelier scene from only fools and horses. Fantastic farce sitcom. 

8) Spaced - Simon Pegg - does films with Tom Cruise now (Mission Impossible). And Eddie Izzard does too (Valkyrie). Wonderful series with stunning performances by Mark Heap.

9) Peep Show - I can't stand this. Hugely popular in the UK. Each to their own.

10) The Big Lebowski - Superb. So many good scenes and memorable performances. Withnail and I or the Big Lebowski? Watch em both. 

So many big names missed of that list; Withnail and I,  League of Gentlemen, Alan Partridge, Chance in a Million, Some Mother's, Flight of the Conchords to name but a few. But which would you replace on that list? Peep Show obviously, relegate that to the back of the class, but who else? Preposterously difficult.

Here is a picture of the beautiful Morwenna Banks to take your mind off this impossible task.

Morwenna Banks even looks gorgeous with a beard. Stoney Bridge!
