I don’t mean that the joke just isn’t funny, I want to know a joke that almost makes you want to fast-forward through the scene.

Bond spin-off?
Homage maybe, but not a spinoff :-)
Yeah. I’m stretching my rule as much as possible. I’m basically trying to exclude all characters that have already been audience tested. Parody is sort of included in that.
Ha ha, fair enough, I admire your determination to make this rule stick!
Another counterpoint though - Quincy ME. Oh course you could argue that it’s not all that good even with Jack Klugman’s crime solving coroner.
Oh, another one - Father Ted!
Yeah. I may have to exclude medical/investigative.
House, Sherlock, Columbo, Reacher, Lucifer
Veronica Mars, Ironside, Chuck…
Arguably Fawlty Towers too?
Nah. Fatty Owls is named after the hotel.
Chuck is all about Charles Carmichael. (Streeeeeeeetch).
Ha ha, fair enough. I see I’ve met someone as stubborn as I am ;-)
