30 Rock/The Office (brainy sarcasm about everyday foibles) I've been told I'd loke 30 Rock. I love Arrested Development
Wes Anderson (detached surrealism, awkward character interactions) - Love him
SNL (too many things to list) - Moments of goodnes throughout the years but not all of it does it for me.
Woody Allen (wordy self-deprecation) - ADORE Woody Allen except really early slap stick stuff (but his serious films are really more up my alley)
Cary Grant style films (zinger after zinger) Heavy, witty dialog is a fav as his black comedy. His Girl Friday a great example as is Arsenic and Old Lace. The Thin Man (not Grant) but another witty dialog fav.
I can't stand The THree Stooges. Irritation!
As for Brit humor, Black Books is one of my favorites.
