The US has a national Do Not Call registry... you sign up online. It takes ~2 minutes to register and 30 days to take effect IIRC. Registering took my spam calls from several times a day down to several per year. The only ones I get now are political and people looking for the previous owner.

Edit: if you want to be proactive or vindictive you can report unwanted callers (or anyone using a robodialer) to the FTC.

Well of you're bringing "The Bust You Can Trust" into this, I suppose we have to include Britain's Benny Hill and John Byner's Bizarre.

I always liked Bizarre's T- shirt skits.

I recommend. 'Allo 'Allo or Married with Children for funnies and Tales from the Crypt for spookies. For family viewing: The (orginal) Addams Family, Taxi, Car 54 Where Are You? The Munster's, The Simpson's, or some flavor of Star Trek.
