The Vicar of Dibley

Loved the show. Histerical! Dawn French is delightful. Why can't us Americans learn something of GOOD comedy today from the English. They seem to have it down pat.

The Brits have a flare for comedy that is unmatched and it is exhibited strongly in Vicar of Dibley. You'll find yourself laughing until tears roll down your cheeks.

The Vicar of Dibley was one of the big hit comedies during it's extended run from 1994-2006 and I'm sure it will live on and be remembered as fondly as sitcoms such as Are you Being Served from the seventies and eighties is today.

It isn't just the fantastic performance's from Dawn French that carries this sitcom because the rest of the ensemble cast who provide so much of the comedy.

Although I think the standard dropped briefly during the 2004 special the sharp writing of Richard Curtis meant that the series recovered to go out on a high with the ending in 2006 leaving the public wanting more.

There are so many great moments from this show that will live on forever and this is a testament to the fantastic writing and cast.

If you have yet to see this show you're missing out!!

I have found this show on late at night on PBS and have found it to be one of the funniest shows I've ever seen on TV! It is written by Four Weddings writer Richard Curtis and is starred in by some of the most fantastic British comics on screen today. Dawn French and Emma Chambers are absolutely hillarious together. I really found it a relief and a pleasure to see something so funny on TV for once.

'Vicar of Dibley' is one of the funniest shows ever made. It is consistently hilarious. It never fails to make me laugh. Dawn French is priceless as the lady Vicar who arrives in a sleepy, yet crazy town whose occupants are expecting a male Vicar. She wins them all over eventually of course, but spends most of the time dealing with the general insanity of the village on a day-to-day basis. Dawn French, James Fleet and Emma Chambers among many others in the brilliant cast make this show a flawless, classic comedy. If you are a fan of British comedies, you should check this one out for sure. It is one of the absolute best.
