Porridge or Open All Hours?


Which tv comedy was better and why?

Porridge (1973,1974-1977)-3 series, 2 Christmas Specials, a sequel series Going Straight (1978) and a movie (1979)

Open All Hours (1973,1976-1985)-4 series

I love both and Ronnie Barker is a genius, i think Porridge was funnier but Open All Hours had this sort of warmth to it, Barker was great in both.
