Paramount Comedy, now Comedy Central is my FAVOURITE tv channel. 90% of the times I put it on there is something to watch either on the channel or on the plus one. It doesn't shy away from good, funny, easily watched programmes in the name of variety. Its got it spot on. Often I can spend a day in the kitchen baking and decorating a cake and it will stay on in the background during this time. It boasts programmes such as Sex in the City, Everybody Loves Raymond, Two and a Half Men, King of Queens, South Park and Frasier. Often back to back episodes in a thing called 'mixed doubles'.

This is not always the case, sometimes they do mix it up but this is generally the way they work. Most of the shows are American sitcoms. Some better than others.

Other great shows like two and half men with Charlie Sheen are real classics. ...  Read the complete review

WHAT IS IT: It's pretty self explanatory really, Paramount is a comedy channel available via digital satellite and cable. It regularly shows many American sitcoms such as Sex and the City, Frasier and Two and a Half Men as well as repeats of British sitcoms and some standup shows. GOOD POINTS: There are 2 Paramount channels so you can almost always find some good comedy to watch at any time during the day. The schedule is quite varied but always features old favourites such as Frasier and Sex and the City. There are often weekends devoted to just one programme such as Frasier which make for great lazy Saturday afternoons. It often has some good ...  Read the complete review
