Anarchic humour at it's best!
The ground-shaking impact of The Comic Strip's anarchic humour rattled the televisions of the 1980s, and when the smoke cleared they left a gaping crater that lesser comics are still falling into today. Their clever parodies of film, tv, music and pop culture are unequaled in creativity and execution.
Started by a troupe of now well-established comedy actors (most notably Adrian Edmondson, Dawn French, Rik Mayall, and Jennifer Saunders), “The Comic Strip” offered audiences an alternative to the ‘safe’ humour of its day. The show left no taboo unturned–with shocking and often offensive portrayals of violence, sex, bestiality, and explicit drug use (not to mention all the swearing and puerile fart-gags). But despite the controversy–or perhaps because of it–“The Comic Strip” drew a cult following for its anti-establishment views, which resonated well with younger generations.
