Let’s start with the truth: this podcast wasn’t born from a five-year plan, a production team, or a vision board. It started with one writer, a deep affection for television comedy, and the firm belief that overanalysing sitcoms is a perfectly acceptable use of one’s adult life.

I'm Jacquie J Sarah, a writer, podcaster, and someone who’s spent more time thinking about fictional characters than adulting. Write to Comedy is a lovingly chaotic space where I explore the world of comedy on screen - mostly British and American, occasionally further afield.

You can expect top ten lists, episode breakdowns, nostalgic tangents, serious discussions, character dissections, and the occasional deep dive into comic moments that made me laugh once and now apparently define my entire world view.

This isn’t a masterclass, it’s more like a chat with that friend who still quotes Spaced at inopportune moments and has strong opinions about the structure of The Office (UK and US).

It’s all evolving as I go. Stick around – it might get interesting.

This is the first audio post of the blog Write to Comedy. I’m Jacquie J Sarah — writer, podcaster, and someone who’s spent far too long analysing jokes instead of just laughing at them.

This is the audio version of my blog: a safe haven for anyone who’s ever quoted Spaced unironically, argued about the best Brooklyn Nine-Nine cold open, or wondered why some comedies age like wine while others curdle on contact.

In this first post, I’m laying it all out in ten facts about me. How TV comedy became my lifelong obsession, why karaoke is my villain origin story, and what this blog is actually for (spoiler: I don’t entirely know yet).

Top ten lists? Obviously. Nostalgic rants? You bet. Rage at terrible finales? Almost certainly.

Make yourself at home. Stick around — it might get interesting.

Last year, I put together a blog post for Bang2Write listing my top ten female sitcom characters. I leaned heavily into the Americans. Sue me (please don't).

This time, I’m setting the record (slightly) straighter with a rundown of iconic women from British comedy. It’s not that the UK lacks funny women — far from it — but they’ve rarely been given centre stage the way their US counterparts have. (Where’s our I Love Lucy? Exactly.)

In this audio post, I revisit the original article and dive into my UK-centric list: the characters who defied stereotypes, stole scenes, and kept things funny, even when the scripts didn’t always help.

Hit play, nod along, shout your own suggestions into the void, or better yet, message me with them.

Got a favourite I missed? Think someone doesn’t belong on the list? Come fight me (nicely). Stick around — it might get interesting.
