Quote - British humour isn't necessarily better, it's just always been geared more towards high-brow viewers and therefore more complex in its subtleties and more diverse in its presentation.

Really?  Perhaps you can explain the two Ronnies then.  Highbrow?  Don't get me wrong, I'm a fan, but really ... maybe we define highbrow differently.

And how about "Are you being served" ... very "complex in its subleties".

Nick Park enjoys a very broad audience, and it's hard to find a lot of sublety in "The Wrong Pants".  Maybe the complexity went right over my head.
