Hey friends,
I don't know how many of you have seen the Asian British comedy sketch show Goodness Gracious Me. I bought the entire collection (three series) and have been watching and re-watching them. They are just absolutely the best, and a lot of it does ring true. Who doesn't have an uncle who tells them to come to them for everything? Who doesn't have an aunty who tells everyone she can make it at home for nothing? Who doesn't know aunts who force feed you at meal time? Who doesn't aunties who brag about their sons? These character sketches and whole lot more are just too funny. I guarantee you, watching these episodes over and over certainly does make you laugh out loud.
I don't know if non-Asians can truly appreciate the Asian humor though.

Hey Friend,
'Goodness Gracious Me' is one of my all time favorites! I too, have the entire collection and it is indeed very funny. I love it when those two desi boys..lool say "Rasmalaiiii" whenever they see a white chick. I also love the guy who takes girls out, insults them and then says "Check Please!" Lool. Love the uncle who says "Why didn't you come to me?" Loool..
The list could go on on. Love the show!

2. bharat homes (each home comes with a cupboard with a stack of suitcases on top; all sofas covered with plastic, including remote controls.
