no way, im sorry but the british win hands down for their dry wit, apart from the simpsons the americans' humour is so obvious and silly, almost always spelled out for the audience....boooooring.
im a kiwi btw, so am supposedly non-biased

seinfeld yeah ok sorry forgot to add it and im sure there are others but still go the brits!!!!!!!!!

I was thinking that the britsh would lose because of thier dry wit, and i think the britsh humor is way to unobvious and much more silly than American humor.

Blake's 7

An inspired answer. Dan's list is of course incredibly accurate in general vis-a-vis Seinfeld, which was designed to make most of America wish to find Manhattan dwellers and abuse them.

And Blackadder. That's funnier than just about everything else.

Baldrick : Don't worry mister B, I have a cunning plan to solve the problem.

Blackadder : Yes Baldrick, let us not forget that you tried to solve the problem of your mother's low ceiling by cutting off her head.

Actually A. Nairn, funniest baby joke goes like this:

What's the difference between a truck full of bowling balls and one full of babies?

You can't unload the bowling balls with a pitchfork!

Q: What's the best part about taking a shower with a ten year old boy?

A: He looks like he's six when his hair is wet.

The one about the retirement home, can't remember the name

Waiting for God? *smashes walking stick into feeding sparrows*

You didn't mention Black Books or the first three series of Drop the Dead Donkey, so I'm going to cry and everyone else is going to point and laugh at me for watching DTDD. Sniffle.
