SHOW: The Young Ones

Okay, so I just searched through this entire forum and I didn't see anything for The Young Ones, so I don't think this is a duplicate.

(If it is, i'm sorry!)

Anyway, The Young Ones.. Anybody like it? Seen it? Worship it? It was shown in the 70's and it's about these 4 lads that live in a student residency in London. Rick (Rik Mayall!!), Vyvyan (Adrian Edmondson), Neil (Nigel Planer) and Mike (Chris Ryan). Weird stuff always seems to happen in their house, but they never seem to notice or are too bored to care. There's a lot of mindless violence in it.. It's great!

Haha, I love the one where the bomb falls in the house and Mike is trying to sell it to the Libians and Rik's trying to blackmail Thatcher. The whole show is hilarious.

I also love your icon because Rik's my favorite. ^_^

I haven't watched it in a while but I have all the episodes on dvd.

One of my favourite comedies this.....I grew up on it along with Blackadder as my brother constantly had em on!!!

'Boring' - I like saying that in the style of Rick alot!!

And the surreal stuff that went on really messed with my young fragile mind - Alexi Sayle barging in their house and singing about Dr.Martens boots comes to mind!

'You wont catch me with me trousers....' !

Oh yeah and I don't want to sound like an attentative git but it actually started in the 1980's - I'm not that old you know !

the person who made that show good was Alexie Sayle, i know he wasnt in it every week but he shouldve been

Yeah Alexei turning up as members of the 'Balowski' family!!!

I love this little speech (if you can be bothered to read it), he just goes off on one -

Mr. Balowski: [as Mr Balowski's nephew, Billy] I've not always been mad, y'know, but um... I was actually driven mad by the indifference of architecture and council planners. Y'see I live in a tower block, and um, the thing about those is that there's terrible noise problems, because there's no noise insulation at all y'know, and 8 floors below you there's always some bastard who's got a Yamaha home organ, y'know. You're just about to go to sleep and you hear this doot-doot! chh-chh doot-doot! chh-chh chkdt BAH WA DAH BAH NAOW! doot-doot! chh-chh doot-doot! chh-chh! and like, the people who live upstairs from me, I can't understand what they're doing! Y'know I listen, and all I can hear is this weird noise and it goes voom voom, BLAT-NN BLAT-NN, voom voom, BLAT-NN BLAT-NN, and it sounds, right, it sounds like two elephants on a motorbike riding round and round, while a seal bangs a kipper on the table! I went upstairs to complain, and the door was answered by this elephant in a crash helmet! Standing behind him is this seal going
[pantomimes hitting a table with an object, the other hand on his hip]
Mr. Balowski: "WHAT IS IT NOW, RALPH?"

Yeah the University Challenge one is genius when Vyvyan just starts kicking them all in the head, and they're representing 'Scumbag College'!

One of the questions is - Who produced the world's stickiest bogey and the world's stupidest bottom-burp ?

I also love the fact that Buddy Holly appears in Mike's bedroom *sings* 'Cuckoo Daddy Long Legs!'

OOh, sorry The Artist Must Be True!! The show was on the 80's. ^^

Anyway. Yes. Rik Mayall is amazing ^^ I'm going to see him in 76 days at the theatre, everyone can commence being jealous as of now. =D

Sorry, anyway.. My favourite parts of The Young Ones is either when Mike and Vyvyan play Cricket and Rik is the stumps or in Bomb, when Neil walks out of his room and falls through the hole in the ceiling.

*jealousness* lol

Oh! I have this book of The Young Ones that the whole cast signed. It's cool. ^_^

Oh and Rik reading George's Marvellous Medicine is pure genius, have you seen it? I have it on tape to watch over and over again!

Anyway I'm going off topic so - Fatumpft.
