Review of Porridge

Porridge (1974–1977)
10/10
Ronnie Baker at his best
2 January 2023
The best thing of British. So good even America didn't try to copy it.

Never to be repeated or revived.

No one could mimic the late great Ronnie Bakers super comedy acting.

The entire cast couldn't have been better. Not one person out of place. From Mackay to Horrible Harris.

Ronnie Barker was pure perfection making what could have been an uncomfortable subject for comedy a inciteful look into an often ignored area of life and introducing a marvelous young actor called Richard Beckinsale. It gave him a roll that brought him to the forefront of comedy before his sad and untimely death. It wil in my opinion. Outweigh every other comedy show ever.
