Love our shows

[P1NSEEKER]

Damn forgot about spaced!

Oooh and mighty boosh :D

[SaiSpag]

Much love for Spaced <3
Simon Pegg is pure comedy genious, Shaun of the Dead would be top of my list for definate if it was a show >.>

[P1NSEEKER]

Not happy about him putting on an American accent in his new film :( just seems wrong!

[SaiSpag]

:O !
Which one, the new one with Nick Frost (Police guys..) or the other one someone told me about and I forgot ;_;

[P1NSEEKER]

Its one with David Schwimmer i forget the name!

The police one looks awesome :D

[SaiSpag]

That's it the David Schwimmer one! Shame about the accent though, Simon Pegg should be british all the way!

And agree on the police one, Pegg and Frost also do best working together, they just seem to play off of each other's funniness.

Especially in Spaced. And the ever immortal hand-gun-slow-mo fight.

That is often recreated randomly in public....

[highpass]

No.. no-one's.. m... mentioned.. Python?!

My five, in no particular order:-

Monty Python
Red Dwarf
