Is it possible to die of laughter?

[butterfly]

I'm watching Coupling (UK). And fuck, this was a funny show. I've had to pause it several times so that I don't injure myself laughing. I had to catch my breath! Literally. It's on pause right now.

Jack Davenport is one of the leads and he's brilliant (you can see him on the bed in my icon there -- that's from The Talented Mr. Ripley). The whole cast is, though. It's just a really great show. And I think that I ship Steve/Susan, which is remarkable, because they're a canon couple. But it's funny and sexy and did I mention the humor yet?

Extra breasts! Random cleaning and panic over whether she's seen his porn. Jane, who refuses to be rejected. And Jack Davenport, who is just absolutely gorgeous and incredibly funny.

I hope everyone had a good new year. I spent mine over at jic's, which is always fun. We're in the middle of season five of Stargate now.

It IS possible to die of laughter. One bloke famously died laughing while watching "The Goodies".

Have a care, young lady!

Dare I ask what the movie was about?

[trepkos.livejournal.com]

It was a weekly comedy programme, a bit like Monty Python only more childish. Starred Bill Oddie, Graeme Garden and Tim Brooke-Taylor.

Ahh, I adore that show :-D

It's brilliant.

I just loved this show - at least the British version, and not the hideous NBC effort.

Richard Coyle rocked my socks, man. Ohh Jeffrey! Hee...

Haven't seen any of the US version. I'm sending back the first series of the UK one so that I can get the next disc.

It is hilarious. Jeff's a great character -- they all are, but he's so... I loved the "now, imagine you're an Israeli' scene. Brilliant.

Jeff is just so totally whacked-out, and a lot like my friend Curtis. I'm going to have to go rewatch them when I get home... if I still have them.

There are people like that in real life? Brilliant.

this was a funny show

It is! (was? Is it done, then?) I miss Jeff, though. And Jack Davenport rocks!

I've absolutely no idea. I'm just trying not to keep my hopes up.

That show always comes close to killing me with laughter! And at times, cringing right off the sofa b/c it's so painful (embarrassingly painful I mean). But laughing as I cringe... =)

There have been a few moments where I just could not believe this was actually a real television show. So funny.

Love, love, love Coupling.

*shows off icon*

Great is my love for Susan and Steve.

Susan and Steve are highly adorable and very funny together.

It's a brilliant show. I think I may be overusing that word, but it just fits. Brilliant.

I don't think there is a show on TV I laugh harder at.
