• A weekend program on the UK’s Channel 4 cited Clerks as the 19th funniest film of all time, coming in ahead of the likes of Young Frankenstein, Animal House, and other classics! We’ve got the full video of the clip as it aired for you, as well as a link to the full list over at the channel 4 website. Here’s the Clerks writeup:

19. Clerks, 1994

Kevin Smith’s directorial debut is as hilarious as it is filthy, cutting to the bone of gritty American service subculture like a chainsaw. The script buzzes with intelligence mired in laziness, and observations born of the meniality of working in a grocer’s. With icons for those whose aspirations stretch to a day on the couch drinking beer, Smith has clearly defined a branch of cinema which he can confidently call his own.

As we expected, Kevin did appear throughout the program to comment on many of the other flicks that made the list. Here’s hoping we can somehow catch a full viewing of the program stateside at some point.
