In terms of sitcom, I’d say the biggest one that was never huge in the UK was Seinfeld. Yes the BBC showed the entirety of the series, and it has been repeated on other channels since, but it’s only ever had a niche following here. Whereas other sitcoms from that era, notably Friends were just as big here.

I do believe that the BBC’s scheduling of Seinfeld did play some part in the show’s failure to make it big, as it were.
