Jeeves & Wooster series (watched it in England in 1991-92, rerun on PBS, also available on DVD)

Jeeves- "The dinner gong has sounded, sir."

Wooster- "Don't even mention food, Jeeves. Who was that fellow with the
circles, Jeeves?"

Jeeves - "You are perhaps thinking of the Florentine poet Dante Alegheri, sir,
who in the first part of his Divine Comedy is conducted by Virgil
through the nine circles of hell."

Wooster -"That's the chap. Well those fellows he bumped into had it easy."
Jeeves- "Once could take issue with you there, sir."

Wooster- "Were any of them engaged to marry Florence Craye?"

Jeeves- "The poet makes no mention of it, sir."

Wooster- "Or condemned to stand whey-faced and trembling at the altar
steps while Madeline 'the stars are God's daisy chain' Bassett
advanced up the aisle on the arm of her father?"
Jeeves - "Indeed not, sir."

Wooster- "Well it had to happen to somebody one day, I suppose. And it
happened to me today. Fate has dealt me the royal flush, Jeeves.
I'm engaged to both Madeline Bassett and Lady Florence Craye at
the same time."

Jeeves - "Oh. Oh dear, sir."

Gdog, excellent taste, are you by any chance English too?

I would not have said The Young Ones was obscure, but perhaps it was not shown over here.

How about:
Not the Nine O’clock News
Dads Army
Only Fools and Horses (especially the episode with the chandelier) :)
Morning Blur

Yes I am indeed English, been in Canada for 26 yrs. The Young Ones was not shown over here, I believe, but Alexi Sayle ... another great comic, made some inroads

As for Not The Nine O'Clock News I managed to pick up the Best of DVD, I have never cried so much as I laughed!!!! It's hard to expalin British Comedy to an non Brit... and by the time you explain the joke its lost!!!

It Aint Half Hot Mum
Tiswas ( a kids show but full of adult humour)
Allo Allo

Too many to list but these are what's stuck in my head for the last couple days:

From Superbad

- the intro sequence betwen fat Seth ( Jonah Hill) and Evan on porn and especially why perfect 10 sucks.

- home economics class.

Anything with Kevin Costner starring in it! Oh yeah, those were supposed to be big budget dramas.

Hmmm - Then it would have to be Monty Python's Holy Grail - The scene with the killer rabbit is great!

Funniest scene: the puppet sex scene.

There’s something about Mary
Funniest scene: when she’s got spunk in her hair thinking it’s hair gell.

Caddy Shack
Funniest scene: Tie. Doodoo in the swimming pool and Bill Murray eats it. Bill Murray trying to blow up the gopher.

Ameli and Porky's

Amelie-with Audrey Tautou

The scene set in the cafe/bar. Where the hypochondriac woman selling cigars?, has something spilled on her and she goes marching to the back bathroom. She interrupts the gentleman(love interest) leaving and they start doing it in the cramped toilet. The banging starts to shake all the bar glasses set up, threatening to break them.
It's funny to me. Amelie played matchmaker and it worked out. The whole bar can hear.

Porky's
When the students are in gym class. The young male teacher meets the young female teacher in the supply closet. The get going at it and she starts howling. Lassie.
Everybody's killing themselves laughing in the gym.
 
To this day I cannot figure why..... Hot Shots w/Charlie Sheen.

I only laughed once, but it was for 90 minutes. Watching it again was not a fraction as funny, but in the theatre for the first time it had me in tears the entire time.

One of the funniest movies of all time was Caddyshack followed up by one of the least funny movies of all time, Caddyshack 2

If you're in the right mood Ishtar is really funny.

lessor know classic - Fubar - a mocumentary of Canadian white hoser trash.
