I find IT Crowd hilarious, second best to Red Dwarf, and even above other brilliants like Blackbooks, Father Ted and Black Adder.
Why? I can relate to the "standard nerds"! !! !!
Even though I am not an IT person, I still think I classify as a nerd with my special interest, and with next to no social skills. I love how Moss and Roy use the mobile texts to talk like "normal" men about the footy, :D
And Moss being bullied in the park, made me crack up :lol: , and feel sympathetic. :?
Who else loves IT?
Or even( dare I say) not love IT?

If you haven't watched, please do!! !! !

The first IT Crowd thread I've seen. How the flip is that even possible?

Love the show!

It has been several years. Is a new series already out?

The IT Crowd is amazingly funny. I'd rank it above Father Ted, but I don't think I can rank it above the combination of Dylan Moran and Bill Bailey, they're just too great together. I'll rank it as a tie.

I think the new series is due in June, so really soon! :D

Definitely one of the best shows out there. The new series airs June 25th in the UK (alas, I'll have to wait for the DVD or until BBC America re-airs it) and a 5th season is rumored to have been commissioned. I do love Black Books too, but maybe just fractionally less. It's a small fraction, though!

I love their lines:
"Hello, IT.... have you tried turning it off and on again?"

They even taped it and used and answering machine in one episode :D
