I come from an English family (though I've never been there myself) so I grew up watching a lot of British Television, and to be quite honest I love it a million times more than American television.
The comedy, the Wit, even the drama is intense.
Check out a few of these titles, they happen to be my favorites.

The Mighty Boosh
BlackAdder I to IV
Red Dwarf
The Big Fat Quiz Show of the Year
Black Books
Bottom
Peep Show
and Spaced
