I have a question

[kindkit]

I've now watched the first two episodes of series 1 of Dad's Army, a show that has been recommended to me by a bunch of people.

And my question is: does it get, er, funnier?

I don't hate it or anything, but so far I haven't found it more than mildly amusing. Is it just one of those shows that starts out slowly?

Other comedies I enjoy, in case this might influence your advice, include: Blackadder, Black Books, Cabin Pressure, Monty Python, Red Dwarf, Round the Horne, and Spaced. I also confess to having liked the first several series of 'Allo 'Allo.

Quite probably - come to think of it, I don't think I've ever seen S1, which, given that it used to be repeated all the time, may be significant.

I'm told the characters become more interesting and less stereotypical, so I'll stick with it a while longer and see.
