blandings.....
saw 4 or 5 episodes of Blandings the other day. hilarious!!!!!
Re: blandings.....
I hadn't either...
It's a recently made Britcom...
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2211457/
I see it co-stars Jennifer Saunders, (of French and Saunders and Absolutely Fabulous) and it's based on the series of stories written by PG Wodehouse; those facts alone make me think it would be worth checking out...
ETA:
Here's a clip:
It has kind of a Jeeves and Wooster "feel" to it, (not surprising, since Wodehouse also wrote those stories)

Re: blandings.....
the funny part is that they use the same plots over and over and its still great.
Re: blandings.....
Wes, have you seen the Jeeves and Wooster series? If you haven't, if you like this you'll really like that one.
Re: blandings.....
yeah, I ve seen some of it.
pretty good, but I think blandings is brilliant, if only because it makes the aristocracy a bit more likeable.
there always seems to be another, slightly inbred, niece who is in love with a pauper, and the future and present earl at blandings do their best to help them get on.
at first I thought it was kinda repetitive , but then I realized that there was actually a point to it all. in 20 yrs, when the son is earl, all of the nieces and their husbands will owe everything to him. not in the show, but it s deeper than it first appears. sub plots and sub text abound....
