Christy Posted June 7, 2008 Report Share Posted June 7, 2008 Anyone watch it? It's hilarious, and clearly a huge inspiration for Curb and The Office.Love from Christy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KimyReizeger Posted June 7, 2008 Report Share Posted June 7, 2008 Yeah, I really like it. Had a phase recently of watching it really late on ITV3 (I think) - unusual location for good tv anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigsby Posted June 7, 2008 Report Share Posted June 7, 2008 One of the best shows ever. Watched them all on Paramount Comedy at 1am while a student (not great for 9am lectures), then again when ITV2 repeated them a few years ago. Hank is a legend.

Hank Kingsley is possibly the greatest comedy character ever...surely a template for Gareth in The Office. For anyone who doesn't know, he was played by Jeffrey Tambor, who went onto play the father in the Bluth fambly in 'Arrested Development'. And his assistant, Darlene I think, was fuckin smokin hot.Love from Christy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KimyReizeger Posted June 8, 2008 Report Share Posted June 8, 2008 Great thing about Sanders is the reluctant vanity. He thinks it's all a pile of shit but wants to be better than Letterman anyway.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qzdiablo Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 yes, fantastic stuffthey were all on youtube about a year agohank is pretty much the best character, the episode that always sticks out in my mind is the one where he gets married, especially the sight-gag at the end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigsby Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 especially the sight-gag at the endRemind me.Other Hank classics include the one where he is starting up his own cabaret show "What comes up/must come down.", the one where he's shagging some 70 year old sex therapist and the one where he hosts the show for the night and starts to think he's ace.
