Why is it that the BBC never shows reruns of "the goodies?"

1) because a bunch of blokes on a bike being chased by a giant kitten is only funny the first time you see it.. and
2) bill oddie!.. nuff said

I think UK OLD showed reruns of the Goodies a couple of years ago. It was really very unfunny the second time round. Most of us here saw it when we were kids and so we probably laughed mostly at the bizarre stuff and physical gags/stunts. My Dad's famous phrase was "it's too daft to laugh at" and that's pretty much how I'd feel about it now.

Auction it on Ebay. One person's junk is often another person's treasure.

the bbc wouldnt re-run drivel like the goodies when they have a vault full of timeless classics that are still funny even when they still show them every week........
ie - dads army , only fools , allo allo , etc etc
also how come monty python films are so funny but the tv series was crap?

Goodies drivel?!
Monty Python series crap?!

I feel faint!

Actually that gives us an insight into your comedy tastes.
Dad's army, OFAH, allo allo, are all real life based comedies, if you get what I mean.
Monthy Python and the goodies are quite off the wall, but the monty python films weren't (ok meaning of life was a bit).

:)

Being slightly loopy, I quite like Monty Python and the goodies. Allo allo was quite good too, but I'm not that keen on dad's army, and really don't like OFAH

Meaning of life was probably the film most like their series, so I'm not suprised you wouldn't enjoy it.
To be honest, when I watch it, I can see some of the bickering that was going on amongst them, and the film suffered because of it.

I still wait with bated breath for the guy in the restaurant to explode when given the after dinner mint !

Thank you anonymous forum "traffic warden" for giving me a negative rep just for saying "UK OLD" instead of UK GOLD. Own up ya chicken and for bobs sake get yourself a sense of irony, pathos, metaphor, hyperbole, satire and...humour.
