Well, after cleaning up the toilet because my five year old wasn't quick
enough in putting his pants down, i had still 20 minutes left to pick my
choice. After 5 seconds of Ab FAb (irritating) and 5 seconds of Monty
Python (still funny) the choice was easy.

As far as the other ones: only the Young Ones i've seen and i liked it very
much because i always regarded my self as a sort of mixture of punk and
hippy and could thus find traits of myself in several characters of that
show.
