My english teacher, Mr. Polka has a great sense of humor and he proved it with his choice of TV shows.
In English class Mr. Polka showed us a clip from the TV show on BBC "Coupling." He claimed it was funnier than the TV show, "friends" and I thought, "Yeah right!"
Though, Mr. Polka was correct. The little clip that we saw was hillarious! Coupling is a sit-com with three girls and three guys, just like friends- but funnier. Don't get me wrong, I love friends! It's such a great TV show. Coupling is kind of like the British funnier version of friends. It had three guys in a coffee shop but instead of coffee they were drinking beer and my teacher pointed out, they were British after all, I have no idea where that stereo type comes from but whatever...
Also what I picked up from the 10 minute clip was (no he didn't let us watch the whole episode :() was that unlike friends the six of them weren't best friends. The three girls were a group of friends and the three guys were a best friend and I'm guessing fate will let them get together.
The show was extremelly witty and hillarious. I don't really watch British Television but my parents do and I never understood how they found BBC funny but I'm going to try out the British style of Television over my vacations along with SAT prep ofcourc, since I am a junior at High School.
Love,
You, Me and TV
