Hey, folks, there was an issue with the previous Monday's poll. My apologies I had to delete it and repost it. Please vote once more, hopefully, there are no more issues after this.

You are allowed to vote on more than one show. If you have a question as to why a show wasn't carried over please click the bottom link. This link will take you to the previous poll, everything has been explained there.

Isn't this a poll for Monday's slot?

Yoo you forgot to add max and paddy road to nowhere on the list man👍

Ahh my bad bro,damn thats sort of a spin off from phoenix nights too,they are both hilarious...Cheers man,always enjoy the content👊

You can't have Ashes to Ashes on here without Life on Mars since it is the follow up to it.

BigChanChan

I understand Life's Too Short and Derek have the usual favourite characters in but that must be the only reason they are making it onto the list because it's not for the quality of the shows. There's much better and funnier shows to choose from!

Thank you so much to Josh for taking my suggestions from the previous poll into consideration. Even if none of them come close to winning this time round; the fact you read my last comment, trawled through for possible candidates and listed them here is much appreciated. It's really cheered me up! So, thank you so much!

Alex P

This Country is there twice

Rich Moyse

Come on own up...... who’s voting for gavin and Stacy 🤣

Ash Jeffries

Ashes to Ashes is fantastic but I haven't seen Life on Mars on a poll yet so has Josh already seen the British Life on Mars? I'd say it's integral to see that before Ashea to Ashes. :-)

Gary Tamblyn

I hope Josh understands the accents in the Royal Family. 🙂

Lawson Briggs

I’ll be gutted if Brass Eye doesn’t win this one.

Manly Stump

Why is Royle Family on the 24 episodes or less list?

Kieran B

Probably better for him to finish Phoenix Nights first as well rather than watching both at the same time

Anonymous

Mr bean really, i know comedys subjective but this is best left in your childhood

Anonymous

Get the feeling that's the one he really wants to watch next?🤣

Anonymous

Mid Morning Matters is the next best Partridge IMO. That and the film, which I didn't like on first watch but found pretty good on second.

Anonymous

hope porridge wins - a true classic

Manly Stump

The trouble with MMM is that it's a Sky production, which Josh avoids because of their copyright policies.

Teddy Alison

Come on guys, this is the come fly with me chance haha. Also Josh, will top 5 for example votes on these polls carry over for the next short episode slot. That’s why I like the short ones aswell because they turn round very quickly

L M

Gotta be come fly with me

Mark McKeown

Royle Family is definitely up your alley so good to see it’s doing well

Luke Barron

I agree. Its one of the very few British comedies that failed to make me grin let alone laugh. The main character is jsut an annoying twat.

Luke Barron

I really hope it makes it. There's some real mediocrity currently leading the polls that I hope don't make it through for Josh's sake lol

Luke Barron

echk. Might have to tune out for that lol. Next we will be watching open all hours and dads army...

Luke Barron

Derek is fantastic. everyone that downvoted it just doesn't get it imo. Lifes too short is just more of "The Office".

Tony Smyth

I presume that Toast is toast, eh? May I remind you that Matt Berry is Toast. Nobody can act like an actor who can't act better than Matt Berry. It's the role he was born for.

Anonymous

Come fly with me 👀👀👀👀👀 you’re a legend for adding it

Anonymous

Luke you don’t like porridge? Open all hours is a classic also.

Lee

Finally Some Mothers Do Ave Em makes it, looks like it’ll lose out but at least it’s on the poll! Lol! Thankfully most of the front runners in this poll are shows I enjoy so it’s all looking decent!

jack

I have never got why people like Gavin And Stacey so much, anything that has James Corden in is not worth watching

Chris H

Have to admit I still quite enjoy it but I definitely went off it a bit when I discovered what an arsehole James Corden is. The AMA he did on Reddit was hilarious, he disappeared after a couple of questions

jack

Can you add One Foot In The Grave to the longer shows poll please

TheHigh

all crap apart from brass eye :P , that's ok , ive had 8 months worth of awesome shows and still have the rest :) im sure something better will pop up in future polls, il never give up saying this but i cant believe we missed out on our chance of getting TMAWL on here , such a shame! ... hope all is well josh.

Anonymous

derek, royal family and life's too short all crap? yikes

Manly Stump

Yes, Brass Eye pulling ahead of Royle Family! Come on guys, it's only 7 episodes then we can choose something else!

Anonymous

‘Early Doors’ isn’t going to win, but I’d highly recommend it to anyone not familiar. Possibly even better than it’s counterpart ‘The Royle Family’.

Anonymous

Surely you need to watch ‘Life on Mars’ before ‘Ashes to Ashes’, no?

Anonymous

HNTLYL is possibly the most underrated British sitcom of the last 20 years.

Danny

Never even heard of Brass Eye but probably due to the lack of episodes so wouldn't have been on TV long enough to notice it. But I sure hope Royale Family doesn't win

Anonymous

Definitely! Surprised 'Ashes to Ashes' was picked and not 'Life on Mars'.

Anonymous

Come on Black Books...come on Black Books! Isn't Royle Family a long running series? Maybe I'm mistaken, can't remember how many episodes there are now that I think of it. It's a great show but I wonder if it's a very "reactable" show, it makes The Office seem fast paced!

Anonymous

How the hell are Spaced and Green Wing gone from the list? Especially Spaced? Josh has reacted to all three of the Cornetto Trilogy films, yet the show responsible for those films, and better than all of them I may add, is no longer on the list. The mind boggles!

Anonymous

If you do eventually get to ashes to ashes I recommend watching life on Mars first

Pkirby422

I'll be honest, I'm a little lost by the polling progression shown here and in the links (mostly because I'm lazy and don't want to take the time to get my head round it, so I've just got myself to blame). But hey, I'm sure that you have a system planned out. For me, most of the 'classics' are in the various multicoloured tables that you have in the link to the previous poll. While there are a few good ones littered in this one here above, I wouldn't think most people would call a lot of the shows in this most recent poll 'classics' necessarily. Like I say though, I'll trust in your system !

Danny

Well he mentioned 25 or more counts as long running and Royale Family is 25- 20 episodes and 5 specials

Anonymous

Could have sworn I voted and commented last night around 11pm on this list but it seems to have disappeared.

Anonymous

My vote is for Porridge. If you like Only Fools, I feel you'll like Porridge. Occasional cameo from actors you've come to love. Get some more votes on Porridge

Anonymous

Bottom live would be great

tania P. Bear

There's not much point doing Ashes To Ashes, if you haven't done Life On Mars, first

Carl-Fredrik L

Maybe you like Bob Mortimer so i thought u could check out a short "series" called The Club - Vic and Bob. All the clips are about 40min. Its a bit like Phoenix Nights but more wacky. Think u would love it. After that there is longer spinoff series called Catterick with some of the same characters, yrs later. Dont think anyone reacted to these before. Hidden gems imho. Have a great day!

Anonymous

Catterick is seriously underrated. Surprised more people didn't watch it really.

Anonymous

Dark Place is also gone. Jesus!

Anonymous

And League of fucking Gentlemen!!!

Anonymous

Dark Place and League of Gentlemen definitely need to make it!

James Aston

Did Brass Eye win this? If so then that's a victory considering Phoenix Nights won the other poll.

Anonymous

Wouldn't it make sense to do The Day Today first before Brasseye since it was sort of an earlier series of it?

slashdisco

Comedy is subjective: it's on a spectrum, not a scorecard. Those complaining about the top choices, or valuing one show over another, would do well to remember that. I'm not thrilled about some of the shows Josh reacts to, but I respect the vote and I use it as an opportunity to open my mind to another part of that comedy spectrum. In short: stop moaning and grow up.

Bottom Live has to be on the agenda at some stage.

Gimme Gimme Gimme!

Chewing Gum also!

This country was listed twice shame it didnt win best show on the list by far :(

You wouldn’t have to do every episode of taskmaster at once you could do 1 series then do something else then go back to it
