I think your wrong about Brits, I find Fnns have same sense of humour to British, maybe it’s because your American that you don’t see this, After all we know that Americans lack in this department

Want to explore what’s apparently funny to the Finns? Here’s some songs by comedians, with translations of the lyrics and links to youtube

I think Finns liked “All in tthe Family” because “Archie Bunker” was everyones dad.

I think finns like the Simpsons so much because Homer is very much like the stereotypical finnish man. A fat guy who drinks beer and watches sport on his sofa.

In a comedy series, there should be something funny. In Julmahuvi, there isn???t.

I feel for you. It must be awful living a life with no taste whatsoever.

What kind of comedy do you like then?

In a comedy series, there should be something funny. In Julmahuvi, there isn’t. Most Petelius productions suffer from the same problem. It’s “emphatically embarrassing”, not fun, to watch Petelius “apuuuva” sketch.

I can???t see the difference between that and Vinti?Â¶t or anything produced by Petelius et al.

Well aren’t you just so different. Do you dislike Julmahuvi because “everybody” likes it or because you genuinely dislike it?

Despite what people say, Julmahuvi is crap. I can’t see the difference between that and Vinti?Â¶t or anything produced by Petelius et al. The only good sketch in it is “Practical English with Abu”.

Kummeli is about the characters, Abu is about the characters. Do you see the pattern?

I think Neil Hardwick (in the picture) has made a few amazingly good tv-comedy series. Of course they were 80′s stuff like ‘Tankki T?Â¤yteen’
and ‘Reinikainen’.

You should check out his “Kielipuoli potilas”. Phil would appreciate it surely. Nice 1970′s milieu too…

I like ‘Keeping up Appearances’ ‘The Store’ and ‘coupling’ is pretty good too.
