Actually I would add Monty Python and the Holy Grail to this (but not Life of Brian).

It's basically just a bunch of silly Medieval sketches linked together, but about 90% of it is top-tier and I never tire of it. Everything from the Coconut discussion, the political peasants - right through to John Cleese's psychotic Red Wedding sequence, I have never laughed any less than the first time I watched it. I don't think I can say that about any other comedy movie.

Life of Brian feels a little more obvious and one-note at times (after many viewings) although it's still great. I just don't laugh at it like I used to.

Yes def The Holy Grail the fact so many people quote its lines and jokes to this day and it stands up to repeated viewings def a timeless comedy with its gags and jokes. Ni Ni

The episode of Peep Show when Jeremy is carrying round the half cremated dog they accidentally ran over and has to pretend its a bbq turkey so he doesn't have to tell the dogs owner the horrible truth

It's probably one of the darkest episodes but I find it hilarious.

See also the episode where Super Hans develops his crack addiction

The Johnny Nice Painter sketches from the Fast Show. Each one is just perfectly crafted.

You lock me in the cellar and feed me pins! Pins! Pins! Ew!

Any of the Vic & Bob Masterchef sketches. That vampire like Lloyd Grossman is always funny no matter how many times I see him.

At the risk of sounding all Joe Rogan, I'll throw in Tropic Thunder. It really does feel like the last of its kind.
