Plain butchery, in the most civilized way possible. Some uncivilized though :D

It's a drama set in U.S. White House.[DOUBLEPOST=1387906745][/DOUBLEPOST]Damn, Sherlock comes early, though in a smaller package:

Oh Man. Peep show just keeps getting better and better. Saw 2*01 rite now. I was laughing so hard i woke up my parents in other room.
Best bits from this episode :
1. Jeremy dancing around with Nancy. Mark ( Thinking to himself ): So my grandpa died so that we could do this ?
2. Mark : Some of us have jobs to go now. Jeremy : Well mark, this is my job. This is what i do now. Im a sexer ok !
3. Mark and Jeremy have to kiss cuz spin the bottle landed on mark. Mark ( Thinking to himself while kissing): Oh man, he doesn't even floss. I keep telling him to . but he doesn't
4. Sophie catches Mark spying on her email. Sophie walks away angrily. Mark : Sophie, please . We have something special, your words. You cant just throw this all away cuz i spy on you!
 
Finished season 2 of Peep Show. The thing i love most about this sow is how realistically it mirrors real life and our subconscious thoughts. Despite our confident exteriors, we all have these little insecurities and harmful tendencies. The thoughts of these characters which are uttered out are so crazy and primal ( All of us are's as well. We just keep it to ourselves) and this causes this show never to have a dull moment as the situations and the audible thoughts complement each other perfectly.
 
Just finished watching 2 seasons back-2-back of Coupling and the show is downright hilarious. My favourite episodes till now have got to be 'Inferno' and 'The Girl with Two Breasts'. The latter had me laughing throughout. Here are some of the highlights:
Steve's outburst on being grilled for enjoying a porno called 'Lesbian spank Inferno':

Jill: "How could you possibly enjoy a film like that?"

Steve: "Oh, because it's got naked women in it!!! Look, I like naked women. I'm a bloke. I'm supposed to like them. We're born like that. We like naked women as soon as we're pulled out of one. Halfway down the birth canal, we're already enjoying the view. Look, it is the four pillars Of the male heterosexual psyche. We like naked women, stockings, lesbians and Sean Connery best as James Bond. Because that is what being a boy is and if you don't like it, darling, join a film collective."

Susan: "Women want somebody with command, with confidence. Someone who wouldn't take no for an answer. We want somebody arrogant and gorgeous with a terrifying sexual appetite and an amazing range of sexual technique. But when it comes right down to it, you know what? We settle for man."

Steve: "Worst charm line in the history of sex. You're so gorgeous you should be embalmed."
Jeff: "I stressed that I didn't mean immediately."
Steve: "She left by the toilet window."
Jeff: "At least she didn't move house. That was a big step forward for me."

Steve: "Right, Mr Spock, put the Enterprise on red alert!"
Patrick: "And you know what that means!"
Steve: "Captain Kirk, it is time to shag the alien's girlfriend!"

@ethan : This is the best comedy series ever. The sad part is no other series comes close to it in terms of hilarity and laugh out loud moments. I really feel sad for people who think this is some stripped down lame version of 'Friends'.
