    Still game.

    Nothing in scottish comedy comes close... And the only thing in the whole of TV sitcom history that is better is, - Only Fools and Horses. :50:

    Still Game, i'd also pick it over Chewin the Fat but Ronald Villiars is the best character in Scottish comedy.

    Still Game is just a great a show.

    I love Limmy and some of the stuff he does is better than Still Game but its better ti just watch his good random * he does, The Limmy Show didn't really work for me.

    Don't really like any of them.

    Limmys show is * but he's funny on the internet. His webcam shows are hilarious

    The best of Rab C trumps the lot.

    That said, for consistency I'd go with Still Game.

    Still Game is absolutely fantastic, the writing, the cast, the setting; it's the sort of show you can watch over and over again.

    Has anyone seen the Scottish comedies, The Dear Green Place and Legit? They were both really good. The Dear Green Place had Ford Kiernan and Paul Reilly.

    I hate it when I like a tv series or a movie and I find out the main actor is a r*****s or a hearts supporter. I used to really like Hamish Macbeth, but can hardly watch it now because I heard Robert Carlyle is a Rangers Supporter. Also really liked to watch Takin' Over The Asylum, a series starring Ken Stott. Then I found out Ken Stott was a hearts supporter and that was the end of that. I love it that the Still Game cast are all Tims.

    voted for Still Game only because Absolutely wasn't there. The Stoneybridgers, Callum Gilhooley, Mr Don and Mr George and the Concierge were as funny as *. Sometimes the songs were * but the sketches were hilarious
