I have Fawlty Towers and a few seasons of Blackadder on DVD. Hilarious. The older series of Red Dwarf are pretty funny.

Oh, and Black Books is highly amusing too.

Fawlty Towers rules. We get Red Dwarf here, sometimes.. when they feel like showing it.

Classic -> Red Dwarf, Blackadder, Fawlty Towers.

Honourable mention -> Vicar of Dibley, Father Ted....um....I'm sure I'm forgetting some other solid ones.

Oh God Kill Me Now Bad -> Keeping Up Appearances.....I hate that show with every fibre of my being.

Blackadder
Red Dwarf
Fawlty Towers
Coupling (no one's mentioned this one yet)
Father Ted (absolutely brilliant)
Vicar of Dibley (I'm not extra keen on this but it's still good)
The Office (takes a couple of episodes to get into)

There are also loads of sketch based comedy shows like:

League of Gentlemen
Fast Show
Harry Enfield
Dead Ringers (personal favourite)

Yeah, but you know what? This one, this one right here, this was my dream, my wish, and it didn't come true. So I'm takin' it back. I'm takin' 'em all back.
