View original postYou linked a clip from "Whiskey Priest" which is still one of my favorite episodes. I also like "Coupling", definitely funnier than "Friends" which was allegedly inspired by it, and I still think of the actors as their Coupling characters, whether they show up in "The Crown"(Patrick wooing Princess Margaret will never not be funny to me), "V for Vendetta" (same with him being a competent dystopian-BBC engineer), "Ninja Assassin" (fucker really gets around), "Pirates of the Caribbean" (trust me Elizabeth, you'll be happier with Will, considering Norrington's ideas on cushions) or "Leverage" (only a couple of episodes, but I kept expecting Jane to fuck up their plans).
I don't recall that episode specifically, but that show had so many great moments and memorable quotes - my favourite of all remains the 'you lied' exchange in 'The Tangled Web'.
As for thinking of actors as their Coupling characters, yes, same for me.

Oh, this is easier to answer. Seems we have even less overlap, though.

If we're including panel shows, my answers are easier!

Yeah, the Brits are great at absurd panel shows... but that one is the best of all.

Yeah, QI is one of those too, though not quite as hilarious as it's also supposed to be interesting.
