Absolutely Fabulous anyone? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I've loved this show since I first saw it on Comedy Central a few years ago. It has to be one of the all time greatest sitcoms from anywhere! Anyone else?

That show is so funny! especially the old blonde slut...lol

Absolute Fab is indeed funny, Jennifer Saunders kills me as her character, I enjoyed her other show with Dawn French...TVQUEEN

Edina, Patsy, and Saffie will all be back.. and the actress that played Bubbles will be back as a new character, an icelandic waitress with a weird grasp on the english langu.. check out sitcomsonline's main page for all the details.

When? What? I need details.

Oh, and that's great hearing about the six new episodes coming in November.

WOW, I didnt think Ab Fab aired in America,It is brilliant!Saunders is a wicked writer and incredibly funny.
Do you guys get any other britcoms ?

The good news for us Brits is that the long awaited new series starts on Friday 31st August (BBC1 9pm)

Rejoice!

I am a huge fan of AB FAB! I have every episode on tape. Patsy and Edina are the 2 most hilarious characters to ever grace the small screen. Can't wait to see new episodes. Jennifer Saunders is brilliant!

Mossopp · 09-29-2001, 02:45 PM

Why had noone mentioned Bubble? She's the funniest thing in the whole show!! Did you see her last night (BBC1 9pm) - what on EARTH was she wearing???!!!!

I vote Bubble for the next Prime Minister!!

japfles · 09-29-2001, 08:57 PM

You are so right my friend....Jane Horrocks is brilliant!
Those looks she gave Edina during Saffy's play were hilarious.

Mossopp · 09-30-2001, 10:04 AM

Did you see that show that Jane Horrocks did for Channel 4 a few years back - 'Never Mind the Horrocks'? That was such a funny show, they definately should have made a series out of it but it just disappeared without a trace. It's been repeated once on the Paramount Channel but that's it. They should have at least put it out on video or something.

japfles · 10-01-2001, 08:05 AM

Jane Horrocks is one talented lady. I DID see 'Never Mind The Horrocks' and it was really good. I enjoyed her 1960's Children's TV presenter the best.

By the way, the new/current 'Ab Fab' shows are very disappointing although last week's was a return to form.

it was a neat show, but it's VERY rough on your body triing to live like they do. i burnt out my stomach lining from drinking to muckh Stoli (Stolichnaya Vodka). It was VERY VERY fun living that way for about 3 years, though !

80sTrivia · 06-09-2002, 09:46 AM

I love ABFAB too!!! Patsy and Edina are just too funny!!! I loved the episode when Patsy came to New York to work for that magazine and of course Eddy missed her so terribly and came in that helicopter to take her back to London!!! Too funny!
