I went into Vice Principals without much expectation, and boy was I proven wrong. McBride and Goggins make the dream team of comedy and this show is hilarious to the core. My only gripe is while the first season was wonderful, the second season took a more serious tone and lost the momentum. Not saying comedies can't have serious moments, but it started to warp the purpose of the show, and didn't feel like it stuck the landing.

Fawlty Towers
I can't believe I hadn't watched Basil and his over-the-top antics till now, because this is British humour at its finest. Cleese and the cast are so good at the kind of slapstick and dry comedy that makes this series so funny, and it always stays fresh and hits the mark with every single episode.
Now this is an absolutely spectacular and stupendously funny series with hilarious characters and scenarios. Compared to Lucas and Walliams' Little Britain, Come Fly With Me is their magnum opus, and I do wish there was another series of it. But, maybe it's good that there isn't, since every joke feels perfectly done and fresh.
Come Fly With Me
Little Britain
Little Britain's not a bad series and has some great sketches / characters, but reuses the content so much to where it starts to feel stale after a while. It's got the same hilarious sense of humour we love Lucas and Walliams for, but really does fall apart quick.

The Dutchman
Based on the play of the same name, The Dutchman is an interesting film, more social commentary than not. The "supernatural" element of it does feel misplaced, but the look into black culture is emotionally charged. Stereotypes are wielded like daggers and put Clay's facade to the test, and it makes for a watchworthy adaption of the play. Also, Kate Mara is spectacular and terrifying in equal measure, as always.

Scream 4
The return of Ghostface is quite good, honestly. This flick has more twists and turns than a rollercoaster, and it constantly keeps you guessing from start to finish. The great cast and improved cinematography help support a fresh(er) take on the story for the fourth installment, and it shows. The best part about SCRE4M is the total depravity it dives into, and that's exactly what I want to see from a horror movie.
Scream 4
Scream 3
Absolutely terrible. It gets far too meta for its own good, and the story gets lost in attempts to make the flick have some comic relief here and there (which isn't done well at all). The twist isn't predictable, but it does come out of nowhere and doesn't have much to do with the plot, let alone any sort of setup. Arguably one of the weakest movies in the Scream franchise, and even more so for movies in general.
