So, me and [MENTION=11561]TheAnnointedOne[/MENTION] realised we were both huge Miranda fans to our excitement. And then [MENTION=11561]TheAnnointedOne[/MENTION] had a brilliant idea: why don't we start up a thread to see if we're not alone in this? Hopefully we're not! It's the funniest thing in television in years!

A short recap about the show from wikipedia (although, I must say it's far more funny than wiki makes it out to be!)

Miranda (Miranda Hart) is 6 feet 1 inch (1.85 m) tall and gets called 'Sir' once too often.
She has never fit in with her old boarding school friends, Tilly (Sally Phillips) and Fanny (Katy Wix), and finds social situations awkward, especially around men. She is a constant disappointment to her mother Penny (Patricia Hodge), who is desperate for her to get a proper job and a husband. Although Miranda owns and lives above her own joke shop, she lacks any real capacity for business, so it is managed by her childhood friend Stevie Sutton (Sarah Hadland). The restaurant next door is run by Clive (James Holmes), who also works as a waiter. He has employed a chef - Gary Preston (Tom Ellis), a university friend whom Miranda fancies. The various episodes revolve around this set-up.

And here's 2 clips from the show:

SUCH FUN!!!
lol, sorry but the first thing I thought reading the thread title was the Miranda of "Serenity" and I was like... who would be a fan of that? *Scratches head*

Maybe I'll give this show a try some time though 🙂
 
I haven't seen serenity, but it sounds like someone you don't usually are a fan of 🙂

You should really give Miranda a try! It's a very old school type of humour, lots of falling and talking to the camera, but made in a refreshing kind of way. I think it's really rare to see women acting this way in television too, and I love the fact that the romantic interest is a very hot guy when she's not what some might consider "pretty" in a conventional way.
 
Love the title!!!

This is "what I call" a great thread idea....

Miranda is hilarious!! it literally makes me laugh out loud! Her looks to the camera and the odd word she says to the audience watching gets me every time! We are rallying up the fans here so come join us!! And if you're not a fan or haven't heard of it.. go check it out... believe me you won't be disappointed!

Watch this to get a taster ...

highlights: 1.01: "ill play fugitive... okay chase me...." haaa

1.05 - 2.08 Hilarious Miranda and her mother imitate each other (its funnier when you know their characters) "I want to be the centre of - what I call - attention" and the way Penny does Miranda's walk! haaaa

And then you have classic Stevie...

lol! I love bare with! :D
I really love it, too! I used to not like Miranda Hart very much but since seeing her in this show, she's really grown on me. Honestly, that kind of "falling over" humour just cracks me up, I can't help it!

One of my favourites is when she pretends that she's going on holiday but just goes to that hotel, so funny!
 
Miranda is my favourite English TV show, it is so hilarious!! I am going to one of the live recordings this year and cannot wait 😀

I even made a youtube video about it for one of my other obsessed friends 😀

There are people who are not that fond of it and I just cannot understand why!


I accidentally used the word that must not be used 🙁

wow, great vid! <3
Haha I can't believe that many people like her. Me and my little sister watch it every now and again. I think she's just a funny character 🙂 for anyone interested she's also in a new drama called 'Call The Midwife' on BBC One soon.

I'll have to check that out!
Yay! More Miranda fans! 😀 i agree with flannen, I can't help but to love this kind of falling over humour! I also love the hotel episode! It's so funny in the beginning when Gary and Miranda says their sons are cliff and richard 😀
 
Im not usually a english TV show fan, but I did see her on Graham Norton with Adele and thought she was hilarious, I may give it at a shot.

Love the second clip in the OP, lmao!

I watched that too, she was adorable! (so was adele! I had no idea who the guy was though, lol). And yeah, the second clip is so funny, I couldn't stop laughing when she went: I got one thing to say to you.... 😀

Yeah it was one of the funniest interviews I've seen in a long time, I had no idea Adele was funny.
The guy was Jack Whitehall, who I also thought was hilarious and watched loads of his stand up stuff, and I meant to look up Miranda, but kinda forgot about it, so I'll need to get caught up!

do it! Think big, and then think small: miss heather small: "What have you done today to make you feel proooud?" That would make you proud. :D

Yeah, Adele was so funny! I saw her in a different light afterwards. I've always liked her, but I thought she'd much more serious than she was! That bit she said about when her dress went up in front of all those people made me laugh so much!
 
YAY more Miranda fans! I knew me and @This Year's Girl couldn't be the only ones! Its just TOO good!!

SUCH FUN!

bare with.... bare with..... SUCH FUN! :D lol, I love how we are speaking miranda speak! Mihihi, it's really addicting!
I don't find Miranda funny at all. I think she tries too hard at times, like when she was on the Big Fat Quiz of the Year. I prefer Sarah Millican.
 
I'm a Yankee, so I never know what in the blue hell anyone is talking about when they mention TV shows/celebrities from the other side of the pond (at least, not the newer, more modern stuff). Ergo, never heard of this Miranda. 😛😛

Looks funny, though.
