The IT Crowd is an acquired taste, I guess; I watched it and adored every second of it, whereas I had other friends who couldn't grasp some of the more... geeky references. Richard Ayoade (if you've watched The Mighty Boosh, you might know him as Saboo) is brilliant and it's definitely worth a look.
Harry Hill is fantastic, the comedy's very... slapstick and fresh, and as you said he does show quite the attention to detail in the programmes he analyses. As an Eastenders viewer (yeah, yeah, I know!), I love his take on Heather and her yoghurt pot lids etc. Funny Saturday viewing, certainly.
Dad's Army bored the life outta me, honestly. It seems like the best moment was "don't tell 'em your name, Pike!", and that's about it. Blackadder Goes Forth is a better example of making military endeavours comedic.
Mr Bean is excellent; I wasn't so keen on the films, though.
