The show focused on the lives of four dissimilar students and their landlord's family on different plots that often included anarchic , offbeat, surreal humour. The show often included slapstick gags, visual humour and surreal jokes sometimes acted out by puppets, with each episode also featuring a notable selection of guest stars and musical numbers from various performers. The Young Ones helped bring alternative comedy to British television in the s and made household names of its writers and performers. The show became a notable icon of s British popular culture, and it received its own game and a home-media release while becoming the first non-music-related programme to appear on MTV in the United States in In the early s, much of the programme's cast performed on London 's comedy club circuit, gaining significant popularity at The Comedy Store [2] — Alexei Sayle was the prominent act, drawing attention as the manic, aggressive compere ; Adrian Edmondson and Rik Mayall worked together in the troupe 20th Century Coyote and later became the double act The Dangerous Brothers ; and Nigel Planer worked in the double act "The Outer Limits" alongside Peter Richardson. Richardson opted to bring the group to television in a project entitled The Comic Strip Presents Channel 4 agreed to the deal and aired the programme on the channel's opening night on 2 November In response to this, the BBC opted to recruit the group for their own comedy projects, and they began negotiations with Edmondson, Mayall, Richardson, Planer and Sayle to star in a sitcom that would operate on a similar broadcast arrangement, under the title of The Young Ones , which alludes to and subverts the song of the same name , written by Sid Tepper and Roy C. The group agreed to join the project and work proceeded on the sitcom, with Mayall co-writing the scripts with his then girlfriend Lise Mayer , [5] and Ben Elton who had attended the University of Manchester with Mayall and Edmondson. Paul Jackson was installed as a producer, [6] but his presence led to him clashing with Richardson, forcing the latter to abandon the project. According to Jackson, the finished project was met with complete disbelief by the BBC, but the recent arrival of Channel 4 led the broadcaster to air what had been created a week after its opening night, on 9 November. To help make it stand out, the group opted to combine traditional sitcom style with violent slapstick , non-sequitur plot turns, and surrealism.
