So glad life's too short will be on the next poll, probs wont win though - underrated!

Some of my favourites are winning ! Let's go! This is a local poll, for local people, we'll have no trouble here

Come on let's get Young Ones on!!!

"Come on Toast, you can do it!" said Ray (fucking) Purchase from behind the curtain.

Sam Reeves

Don't get me wrong I like Gavin and Stacy. But I have no idea why people would rather see Josh react to it than say League of Gentlemen or Spaced.

Jay

Really happy to see League of Gentlemen getting lots of votes. *fingers crossed*

Jay

Agreed. I thought it was a lot funnier than Extras personally. Also Warwick Davis is a legend!

(Just) Steve

I'm starting to lose faith in humanity looking at the current vote counts.

If come fly with me wins I’m cancelling my Patreon, because I’m obviously on a different wavelength to everyone else here

Ready, steady.... and we're off. Let the whining begin!

The League of Gentlemen is so unique and underrated imo. So glad it's winning the poll.

Anonymous

Hey Josh, you should separate between the old classic comedies I.e. OFAH, and the newer comedies I.e. Inbetweeners. Some Mothers Do Av Em - classic vintage British comedy. In my opinion; it sits alongside OFAH, Steptoe & Son, Rising Damp, On The Buses, Porridge etc . IMO, the first two seasons of Some Mothers Do Av Em were the best.

Teddy Alison

I beg come fly with me 😂 it’s gotta win one of these polls soon lol

Anonymous

I don't like James Corden, but I used to love Gavin and Stacey.... just avoid the latest Christmas Special, it sucked.

Tony Smyth

Some of us are just beginners But we're finished with Friday Night Dinners At the end of the day There's not much to say Except STFU, we're ALL winners

Anonymous

What time does Josh release the film

TC Elba

the best shows have so little votes can't understand why anyone would vote for come fly with me over the thick of it or black books

Anonymous

Just finished ‘This Country’ amazing addition. What a show!

Adam C Turek

The problem with Darkplace is, it's a very little known secret, those in the know agree it's amazing - even Americans that have found it later think it's fantastic. The DVD release in the UK alone took almost 5 years. If you prefer Come Dine with me or Gavin and Stacy fine, everyone is entitled to their opinion. mine is that 5 minutes of Darkplace has more creativity that both shows put together.

Tony Smyth

The range of different characters performed by each member of the cast is bewildering, and hard to keep up with... and there aren't many shows you can say that about.

Anonymous

has to be come fly with me bro or this country, gavin and stacy is massively overrated

Anonymous

Country file and songs of praise to be added to the list 🙌

Lee

I was hoping This is England series would be one of the options but happy to wait a bit. Still some quality options there, glad to see Some Mothers Do Ave Em back in the fold - even though it doesn’t do too well in the polls 😂

Anonymous

I'm gonna suggest Flight of the Conchords again lol, mentioned it a few times but never gets on the polls, not sure why, it fits the criteria as far as I know!

Tony Smyth

Absolutely. Even the outtakes / extras are hilarious. (Especially the ones with Big Mandy! She makes me shit myself and piss myself at the same time for different reasons.)

Anonymous

Will find out what the people have voted for.

Anonymous

you should watch FRESH MEAT its about a uni student house share, its hilarious im surprised it hasn't been mentioned before.

Michael

The Thick of It CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED 😤

Chris

If spaced loses out to come fly with me I'm going to shoot myself. Absolute nonsense

Chris

Troll. You'll be suggesting Mrs Brown's Boys next

Chris

Except by bafta who gave it all those awars

Daniel

Midmorning matters 🤞🏻 or This country would be great!

Anonymous

Some great shows on the list with such low votes. Hope Josh will get round to reacting to them one day.

Saul

Just shout the results under the bathroom door while I'm smashing my face into the sink over and over again in despair.

Tony Smyth

Will NOBODY speak up for House Of Fools? It has Vic (Reeves) & Bob (Mortimer) and Matt (IT Crowd) Berry and Angelous (Dan Skinner) Epithemou and some other Norweigan guy. It's very funny. No really. Vic is my favourite one. Yer wan with the church-bell boobies is my second. I can never remember her name. Or her face...

Louis Hessey-Antell

And it breaks my heart to see Gavin and Stacey doing well. That's when British comedy decided to opt for mediocre and safe. Corden was the edgy part back then. Jesus Christ!

Lee

It’s one of the long series and can’t be suggested as a short series

Teddy Alison

Any idea when the poll end date will be Josh?

Anonymous

We live in a world where more patrons would rather watch Mr Bean than Porridge!...just let that sink in. Not mad, just disappointed :)

Saul

Since we're getting so many calls for Come Fly With Me and stuff like that I was thinking maybe we could add in some shows of equivalent comedic worth, like 'Nuremberg - What Really Happened', or the documentary 'Mao's Warpath', which describes in minute detail the starvation of tens of millions of chinese peasants.

Jamie Sherry

I mean, it's obvious you would like Spaced and What We Do In The Shadows more than tripe like Come Fly With Me or that Corden plops.

Jack Morgan

More votes for the League of Gentlemen please :-)

Anonymous

I don’t think Spaced is going to win, but that would be perfect for you

Z is for Zed

Agreed, he'd get a kick out of a lot of the references but I guess a lot of the viewers would not?

Anonymous

How can (insert show I don’t like) be receiving more votes than (insert show I like)? Why doesn’t everyone else have impeccable taste like me? Very sad.

Anonymous

Which idiots are voting for Gavin and Stacey??

Anonymous

First time voting on a poll from josh, but wow whats with the rage in the comments section XD.

Charlie

I can't bear it either, I find the eponymous characters irritatingly twee and smug, and the less said about James Corden the better. Clearly we're in a minority though. I'd love to see a reaction to Game On, but again, I think I'm in a minority there. C'est la vie.

Anonymous

Do these people really expect Josh to get all the Welsh jokes?? Owain Hughes...and does he? Garbage

ALW

Well, I wrongly thought Phoenix Nights would be too regional, and I was glad to see I was wrong about that. I am not however a fan of Gavin and Stacey, so I hope it doesn't win personally.

Anonymous

I like the acting and it's well written but if we're voting for comedy dramas benidorm would be a much better choice

Jay

Yep, there's always manbabies that throw a strop because what they want isn't voted in.

Anonymous

Taskmaster should be allowed as its a comedy game show and thus only one season would be fine. Inside number 9 is genuinely one of the best things to ever be on television so it's a shame its not an option.

Danny

Any chance of Police Squad series going on the next poll? Its only 6 episodes

Anonymous

Gavin & Stacey would be brilliant for a watchalong. I think the shows with a progressive story arc are better much like OFAH and Peep Show.

Alexander Bond

I've said before there should be more nights dedicated to niche/cult shows that have fewer fans and therefore less voters. The mainstream popular shows obviously have more voters and win all the time. And before anyone berates me or whining, we are all paying for this, it's $4/mo compared to $5.99 for basic Netflix, so not much difference. The only thing I watch is Red Dwarf now. The last movie poll, literally the LAST 4 movies on my list were voted in.

Mick Mills

I kind of agree. I get more value than you right now since I like Red Dwarf, the two Gervais shows and Peep show (and some Only Fools) but in 4-5 weeks there will only be Red Dwarf left. If those shows are replaced with crap like Come Fly with me and Gavin and Stacey I might have to take a break on subscription for a bit. Can't please all of the people all of the time and obviously democratic choice should be the best but that sort of stuff is not for me. I also agree with you on the movie choices this time round, not good at all.

Richard M

Specifically a crap one.

Mick Mills

I can't believe that Come Fly with Me and Gavin and Stacey are this popular. I do wonder how many people are voting for Gavin and Stacey just to keep Come Fly with Me from winning and vice versa. Like the U.S election, people voted Biden not because he was a great candidate but because he wasn't Trump lol.

Anonymous

It’s just got to be league of gentlemen! Come fly with me?? Gavin and Stacey??? Bland boring mainstream rubbish

Saul

That's not fair to Biden. The more apposite comparison would be, say, a show like Gavin and Stacey, that a lot of people dislike because it's a bit too nice and wishy washy...versus a show that gave you AIDS and made you bankrupt.

Anonymous

Why is Come fly with me and...omg, Gavin and Stacey winning against all those other actual good shows!?!?!

BelladonnicHazeyJaneII

I kind of hope it's Come Fly with Me just to get it out the way lol. It comes close in every poll and it's only short, let's just have that done with! I'd rather 6 episodes of that then move onto something else than 19 episodes of Gavin and Stacey to be honest :/ and judging by Josh's reaction to the come fly with me clips he watched on you tube he might actually enjoy it. My choices are Porridge, League of Gentlemen and The Young Ones though, I'd like to see what Josh makes of The Young Ones.

gazzaarrgghh

you'll love "The Young Ones"

Anonymous

NOT Gavin and Stacey!!! It's crap! This Country is the one for me.

Anonymous

Why is Ghostwatch never suggested?

NEXUS

Come fly with me is a sketch show, so surely Trigger Happy TV should be up here now.

Manly Stump

League of Gentlemen is absolutely not a sketch show; there's clear plots that develop through each series. There are a few characters whose scenes stand alone but many of them rely on the previous scenes to make sense of what's happening. In a sketch show they would have to work entirely on their own.

Ben

Jesus amount of people on here winging because they don’t like the two shows that are winning, get a grip ! I can’t stand red dwarf, derek or after life but if that’s what people vote for then fair enough all just a matter of opinion and there’s always at least one great show on here to watch Josh reacting to :)

Anonymous

We can hope after come fly with me, everyone that voted for it, vote for league next time

mrtheevilmage

Swear to god Josh Please Please Please do not watch Gavin and Stacey its british Friends but somehow worse cause James Corden exists in it...Scientific evidence by the royal cambridge society proved that James Corden can reduce the humour in anything by simply being there to levels as low as 3% or less. They have been trying to use this power to also see if it works on Carbon Emissions.

Anonymous

already voted but if you’re able to add This is England ‘86 to next tv poll i’ll be voting for that since you enjoyed the movie

Cherzo

People only want you to watch Come Fly With Me because of the show's use of blackface

L M

I pray to god fresh meat and/or Plebs make it next. They’re so underrated and nobody else reacts to them. Edit: please not gavin & Stacey 😭😭

Anonymous

Come fly with me is genuinely one of the shittest things to have ever been on tv

Richard M

Haha it is, and when it came out it was about a decade after the popularity of airport based reality tv shows already.

Alexander Bond

Only Gervais' shows were able to keep Gavin and Fly off the top in the last few polls, but now it's definitely going to be one of them on Thursday and the other one will replace Derek on Monday. After that, the people who voted for them will move to some other mainstream show on the list.

Mick Mills

Someone should nominate "When the whistle blows" . It would probably unironically win.

Anonymous

Come fly with me IS NOT worth watching

Anonymous

On the brightside it's only 6 episodes long, so once it wins we won't have to worry about it again, don't understand it's popularity on the poll though , thoroughly forgettable.

Austin Stratton

What happened to the poll? I checked yesterday and since then some of the shows have lost lots of votes while Gavin and Stacy gained almost enough to overtake..

Chris H

I'd love to see Fresh Meat make it through, I think it's on the longer shows list though. It'll only get a chance when it comes to replacing the OFAH, Peep Show or Red Dwarf slots. Two of those aren't far off ending but I still think it might be a while before we see Fresh Meat, I think a lot of people were after One Foot In The Grave.

Austin Stratton

Some of the shows that Josh will love based on the stuff he's enjoyed before aren't even getting a look in, it's kinda sad tbh.. If those people are just voting for shows they themselves like and wanna watch, I'll give them a site where they can stream every single show here for free.. I just feel like with stuff like Gavin and Stacey in particular Josh won't really get it with the whole Welsh English thing being the main caveat.. And before you say I'm pushing my own agenda, I hate CFWM.. but I know Josh will love it so I voted for it every time, and I can't wait to watch it with him purely for the fact that I love seeing Josh have a great time watching his style of comedy. I'm a big fan of Gavin and Stacey AND The Royale family however I have voted for neither as they don't really fit with what Josh has leaned towards. We should be voting for shows Josh would enjoy as that's why we pay to watch him.. somewhere down the line I feel that's been lost.

YaDadsDyek

This is a shame, the shows people are voting for are just not my cup of tea

Anonymous

Hi Josh, I still think, IMHO, that it'd be cool for you to set aside a day of the week for a show from the poll that you have chosen yourself, purely because you like the sound of it, rather than because of how many votes it got.

Jamie Sherry

I agree - the agenda seems to be 'watch my favourite show' like that annoying Colin Hunt guy at work who doesn't care about your own taste or comedy shows you like. My favourite comedies are probably The Larry Sanders Show and Porridge, but I would always vote for Spaced and What We do in the Shadows first because they seem more attuned to Josh's taste. I don't know that we will ever see see Josh laugh as much as he did for that first episode of An Idiot Abroad, but we can try!

Anonymous

Same, man. Let's hope we get this rubbish out of the way and we can get onto some good stuff!

Austin Stratton

Yes, yes, yes pleeease do this Josh!

Can I suggest Open All Hours for the list? That is a fantastic show with great acting and writing. Ronnie Barker and David Jason were fantastic in it.
