''Miranda'' (2009-2015) is a [[Britcom]] on [[The BBC|BBC Two]] starring Miranda Hart as Miranda; Sarah Hadland as her best friend and work mate, Stevie; Patricia Hodge as her mother, Penny; Tom Ellis as her love interest, Gary, James Holmes as [[Out of Focus|some other guy who keeps popping up]], Clive, and Sally Phillips as her [[Old Friend]], Tilly. It's primarily a [[Work Com]] that takes place in Miranda's Joke Shop but visits other places in the town. It follows the story of [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|Miranda]], who messes up everything in her life. It all starts off fine but each episode eventually turns into a [[Fawlty Towers Plot]].
If you want to know about your right to remain silent, you want [[Miranda Rights]] instead.

* [[Catch Phrase]]: Several, including Tilly's "Bear with, bear with" whenever she's reading a text, Penny's "Such fun!" and her habit of using the phrase "what I call" inappropriately. (Such as, "She's having it on a, what I call, weekday.")
** There's also Stevie's super-positive conversations with her Heather Small cutout - 'Whurt hev ya dun toodeeehh to mek yer feeeeel prooaarroroad?!'
Line 26:
* [[No Fourth Wall]]: Miranda frequently turns toward the camera to make jokes to the viewers and to actually talk to them as if it were a conversation, except this is only done in short bursts, usually to raise a quizzical eyebrow or to completely contradict what she's just said.
** To the psychiatrist: "You haven't got us pegged!" - to the audience: "He has -totally- got us pegged!"
*** Lampshaded when Penny is doing an impression of Miranda, and ends it with an [[Aside Glance]] at the audience. Then cut to Miranda also looking at the audience, confused
* [[Ship Tease]]: Miranda and Gary. ''And how
* [[Sickeningly Sweethearts]]: Gary's friends Chris and Allison.
* [[Sound to Screen Adaptation]]: The show originally started as a radio show called ''Miranda Hart's Joke Shop''.

* [[Studio Audience]]:
** You can easily tell this especially when
