Misfits. I went back and watched the entire thing again a couple of years ago and it was still so funny. I'm not sure it could get made in today's world, it was so delightfully mean and rude.

I was gonna mention Misfits. I enjoyed they show, but the quality dropped after they finish the time travel loop storyline.

The drop off wasn't as bad as I remembered when I went back and watched it (I actually thought some of the later seasons were the funniest) but the departures of key cast members definitely derailed the superhero storyline they were building up.

Asbo X-Men was a lot of fun, Robert Sheehan was really good in it

I really liked his replacement, Joe Gilgun, as well. Those two carried the show, their characters were massive dickheads but you couldn't help but laugh at their constant bullying and manipulative behaviour.
