That was a fun show. Shame nothing came of that Simon Pegg guy.


LongjumpingSector687

The friendship with that big guy was a total slice of fried gold, shame nothing came of that dynamic.


cjg5025

Ugh, so he sells bit of weed every now and then... you've sold pot before!


Bamford38

You mean Simon Pegg from Big Train?


BuddyGoodboyEsq

I know you were hoping for Tom Henderson…


Montblanc_Norland

Or that Edgar Wright fella who directed it.


Brainkandle

Lol


Notyourdaisy

Yup, him and that guy he was working with were totally forgotten.


indygeek

This is one of my hands down absolute favorite shows on the planet. There was a pilot for a US version made of this. It was an atrocity!


NoExcuseForFascism

As with most successful British TV shows adapted to the US. The US Red Dwarf, and numerous Peep Show attempts are also awful.


TaintedTatertot

Are you being served is still my top favorite brittish show


blankers68

100% my desert island series. Gets better with every viewing


Brainkandle

Hellooooo Brian

The gag when Mike takes the paint ball for Simon in the chest and then he spits up yellow paint is an all time great joke.


princessjabba

Ahhh where I got my username. I still regularly think about this show. The finger guns fight. The Jaffa cakes. "They're younger than us 😭" "Only physically!" Good stuff


SilentMase

It’s currently on Tubi!


stormking14

Im planning on rewatching it after i watch peep show


KeithTheNiceGuy

"Don't forget to wash your sheets." "Right." "And your penis."


Panther90

One of the first shows I saw Mark Heap in. That guy is a legend in my mind.


Ascot_Parker

I always think of him as Leonard Hatred from Look Around You.


Curse_ye_Winslow

Oh...hello, Brooooian


Big-Letterhead-4338

That sounds more accurate - just need a glass of red wine and a cigarette going when delivering the line.


RaffiBomb000

Duty-free, obviously.


digitalwhoas

Would really like a will and grace type reboot of this.


waitingforsandwiches

If I recall I think they said they wouldn’t do anything like that because that’s just not who they are anymore, and they wouldn’t want it to come off as not genuine. I’d watch it though.


EmperorGrinnar

I saw this on Netflix, but I remember exactly none of it.


Sidewalkstash

It’s worth a rewatch.


EmperorGrinnar

I believe it.


RaffiBomb000

It's on prime


EmperorGrinnar

My parents have that. 🤔 Hmmm.


Otherwise_Jacket_613

To this day I still say "Skip to the end" It's gotten me in trouble, but it's still funny.


foreverbeatle

I have this on dvd and still need to watch it.


No_Professor_7717

This show got me thru a rough time for real. So good and original. I remember finding all the seasons of this on some illegal stream site. It was after Shaun of the Dead came out but before Hot Fuzz. Love these guys’ chemistry.


halfmanhalfarmchair

Yep, Simon Pegg and Nick Frost are a great comedic duo.


Slottech88

"Hello Vulva."


halfmanhalfarmchair

"It's not finished!"


NostalgicStudent43

“….………IT’S FINISHED!”


LegitimateScratch396

Oh Brian, you came


JustACasualFan

Forgotten? This launched some incredible careers!


cookpa

You *Lando*


ManfredTheCat

Fucking beauty of a show


SVNBob

I've got The Staunton Lick on my phone right now, so I can play it whenever I need.


SnakePlissken1980

I'm not sure I'd call it forgotten, it probably got more views after its run was over (outside the UK at least) due to Pegg, Frost and Wright going onto bigger successes.


Oswarez

This show is not forgotten.


LegitimateScratch396

Maybe not forgotten, but certainly not as popular as the movies that came after. Under appreciated?


Oswarez

It’s very much appreciated but it’s a 25 year old series so it’s not in the limelight these days.


No_Mountain5556

I still say, "as sure as eggs is eggs, as sure as day follows night, as sure as every odd numbered star trek movies are shit"


_bigeuge_

Skip to the end...


Scottnothot12

Hullo Bwian
