Do you love dry humor or a well timed sarcastic comeback? We got you. Here are 14 hilarious British comedies you can stream online right now.
Sometimes you have to laugh to keep from crying. And let’s face it, this has been a one of those years that has had a lot of reasons to cry in it. But sometimes you need a little help in that department. Enter the British comedy.
There is nothing funnier in the world than British humor. (And I will fight people on this.) I don’t know if it’s the painfully dry delivery, the ability to scathingly raise a single eyebrow or the air of put-upon stoicism than makes British jokes so great. But whatever the secret is, it’s basically magic.
From witty banter to political satire to toilet humor, this list has a little bit of everything. And since most of these sitcoms clock in at only thirty minutes a piece, they’re easy to fit into your day. (Or to, you know, accidentally watch eight of in a single sitting. Whatever.)
So the next time you need a quick pick-me-up, try one of these 14 hilarious British comedy offerings, all of which you can stream online right now.
