This should be fun, bet you can all think of some stinking.
1 Several men and their dogs.
3 inveterate doggers, in Swafham and their uproarious adventures, don't tell their wives!
2 Hang about Stan!
The death sentence is brought back to the UK, this is the mad cap antics of HMP Swiftly-drop. Like the Office, with a d list celeb dispatched each week.
The ASDA of satire.
"Thoughtcrime was not a thing that could be concealed forever. You might dodge successfully for a while, even for years, but sooner or later they were bound to get you."¯ Which is exactly what happened to Winston Smith. His rebellion was not one that was foolish and too outspoken. He silently tried to defeat the Party for his personal happiness, and in the end it cost him everything he had fought for, and his love for Julia. He had learned to love Big Brother, which was his ultimate fear when trying to live a life of individuality. The Party had defeated him.

After You've Gone
Weekend dad Jimmy offers to move back into the marital home to look after his two teenagers when his ex-wife volunteers to tend victims of a natural disaster in Africa. Unfortunately, Jimmy's patrician mother-in-law, Diana, views him as a walking, talking natural disaster so she virtually moves in to "help", which generally means undermining Jimmy whenever possible! With a smart-talking daughter, Molly, who thinks she's already a woman, and a son, Alex, who occasionally dresses a bit too much like one, just how much of a challenge can adapting to fatherhood on a daily basis be? Jimmy's ex-wife stays in Africa to tend the victims of a natural disaster in the second season leaving domestic calamities to continue at home as Jimmy and his mother-in-law Diana attempt to share both a roof and parental duties.
Imagine a world without hypothetical situations.

I hope they never make a sitcom like that.

The Office.
A fat office manager has a personality complex with a need to make people like him - but just ends up putting his foot in it every time.

"Apocolypse Now Then Now Then"
Jimmy Saville returns to our screens in a brand new "Viet-Com". US Special Forces have been sent in to find and assassinate General Saville because they believe he's gone insane.
You'll be "Vietting" your pants with laughter as Sir Jimmy attempts to hide from his pursuers without his gold jewellery jingle-jangling. Eurgh-eurgh-eurgh!
"Apocolypse Now Then Now Then"...
... because you love the smell of cigars in the morning.

Dads out of his tree.
A fundamentalist Christian discovers his mum actually boffed a monkey, and it's escaped from the Zoo. Watch out the vicars coming for tea, can he get dad back up his tree before the shit really hits the fan.

I don't think that anyone would be stupid enough to make something so woefully unfunny.

The Full English
The outrageously funny goings on in The Xenophobia Tea Rooms in Margate. It's run by 30-something Pru, played by Jade Goody. She has a winning way with customers and uncanny knack of putting her foot in it with hilarious consequences.
Pru and her helper, Sunita, get into a different scrape every week.
Episode 1 – “You come over ‘ere!...
Go on then! Say something funny! Go on!

Double Entry
Enter the mad world of management accounting, where those crazy bean counters at Grenville & Barkworth are always trying to balance the books while training for their professional exams and working long nights as the financial year-end approaches. Contains scenes of auditing and graphic financial irregularity.

With that title, I thought it was going to be about California's porn valley.
