Yes, Minister

Like last year, 2016 has been a fantastic year for me when it comes to BBC sitcoms. I can't possibly remember all of my new favorites, but after only one season I'm officially putting Yes, Minister in the pantheon previously.  Top 10 (at this moment) in bold.


IN THE PANTHEON OF BBC GREATNESS
Only Fools and Horses
The IT Crowd
Fawlty Towers
I'm Alan Partridge
Peep Show
The Inbetweeners
Blackadder
Vicar of Dibley

Rev.
To the Manor Born
The Good Life
Count Arthur Strong
Rising Damp
Open All Hours
Black Books
The Other Man(s)
Miranda
Vicious
Citizen Smith
Whites
Spy
Yes, Minister 
Also, Sir Humphrey from Yes, Minister may be closing in on the pantheon of sitcom characters, a la Bunker/Costanza/Del Boy/Alex P. Keaton/Charlie Kelly.
