At all.I have said the sitcoms that target geeks are the ones I am talking about. If anyone else wants to argue about other sitcoms that mock someone else, they're welcome to do so.Also I am not saying sitcoms shouldn't exist (no idea where you get that from reading my posts), but I am saying the way they laugh *at* and not *with* in unhealthy. It's a sign of bad writing that they laugh at anything.Also about the two examples you give: Fawlty Towers doesn't laugh at hoteliers. It laughs at *one* of them. And it's not because he's a hotelier, but because he's an obnoxious idiot. Complete difference.As for Blackadder, it's a historical comedy done with way more taste than any sitcom that features geeks and better than 90% of today's sitcoms. Not sure how many people can identify with a 15th Century butler...</blockquote>
