Any favourite parts or just the whole series?

It's pretty strong throughout mate. Some favourite episodes though (credit to IMDB from where I grab the synopsis from)

2 Fab Young ruckman and 1 Old Man

"Hilarious! A couple of happy go lucky 200cm 22yo's take over the ruck and forward line. One problem - they're a little bit shite! A long-pensioned off (by Bigfooty) 45yo mature age law student must return and save the day. Watch him take centre bounces then madly run forward to provide an option (other than Nick Larkey) over 190cm who can catch! Watch the young bucks get to look on from the sidelines as "'G'Oldie" sees out the year in the seniors! If you enjoy watching big, young men moving like concrete filled glaciers - this is for you."

Atu Kicked a Goal!

"Recruited as a forward but never played there - UNTIL NOW. The Atu story. A madcap run of zaniness sees the young man storm from half-back to produce the first non-Cameron Zurhaar running goal for North Melbourne since Brent Harvey's ejection for being too good old. And the fun doesn't stop there! Watch the comedy troupe known as the "the selectors" quickly condemned this rogue display of talent (and out of position too - where was your opponent while you were busy scoring, Atu?) and quickly axe the dissenter.

But he's not gone for long! Enjoy as he hits just the right combination of poor form and no fixed position to find his way back in. In a homage to Groundhog Day, watch as he's dropped week after week only to pop back into the senior lineup each gameday anyway! Riveting!"

Cry-iy-iy-iy-iy-ing - Over You

"If you like your comedy mixed with a bit of drama - this is for you. A 100+ point capitulation against a flaccid Brisbane outfit provides the dramatic backdrop while comic relief comes watching young warriors like Jason Horne Fabian Francis utterly stunned by hapless Coach Noble's exclamation (using only monosyllabic words) "THAT-WAS-NOT-A-GOOD-GAME-BOYS". As the melancholy sets in, grab a box of tissues because the scenes that follow have had some viewers declaring the bus ride to the hotel as "sadder than when that chick carked it in Beaches". Not to be missed."

Charlie Chaplin's Modern Times. Back in the golden age when you could make a great comedy about how capitalism ensnares the working class and tempts them with dreams of an idyllic life they'll never have to keep them working.

Lately I've been watching Police Squad and the Naked Gun trilogy for the first time. The surreal gag focused comedy is a very welcome reprieve for what passes for comedy today in television, which is basically just annoying people speaking fast with the cadence of a joke, but no actual joke.
