There’s a British comedy show I’ve had a friend recommend to me. I finally got around to watching it (mainly because I found it for CHEAP on Amazon). It’s called Mind Your Language and it’s about an ESL (English as a Second Language) class. It’s set in England but all the people in the class are from different countries and have different levels of expertise with the English language. The humor comes from the various misunderstandings of language and pronunciation and also from the clashes between various nationalities, religions, etc. The result is a very funny show that the whole family will like. My family has watched the first DVD and had tons of laughs. It may not sound very impressive, but there are plenty of opportunities to laugh out loud during each episode.

There are four volumes (DVDs) available on Amazon, each with six or more episodes. They’re listed at $9.98 but are usually available “used & new” for about $5.
