big bang!
does south park count?


Yea definitely, although the show peaked out almost ten years ago imo.


agreed, the newer season are not up to par. But i have to pick south park as my favourite still :P

I think with South Park it has turend into how far they can push disturbing stuff before getting banned rather than about the comedy value of it now lol.

The Big Bang Theory is the only Comedy Show I watch regularly. It's very funny and I think the actors really compliment each other. I can only watch Psych in small portions (it gets annoying after awhile), I used to love The Office (now I don't really watch it), and...

I can't stand Two and Half Men.


But both Two and a Half Men and The Big Bang Theory are created by the same guy - Chuck Lorre. Also, they are together on CBS. 


explains why both shows are mostly about sex



Well alot of good stuff listed so far and some of my favourites.


Some others that haven't been listed are
Cheers
Love Thy Neighbour

And in general short UK series like IT Crowd and Coupling. However you need to have a brain to understand some of the humor there unlike some american shows where a fart is considered humorous.

Well then Chuck really screwed up big time when he made Two and a Half Men. (In my opinion, of course.)


Well he made Two and a Half Men first and he also makes Mike &Molly. Also, you'd be surprised to know that The Big Bang Theory is mainly huge today cause of Two and Half Men. When The Big Bang Theory started, its ratings were mediocre, but then it was moved to the spot after Two and a Half Men and its ratings exploded. And this season, its the No.1 show on TV, overtaking Modern Family. Interestingly, now Two and Half Men relies on the Big Bang Theory and is performing well mainly because it airs after it.

Two and a Half Men is mostly about sex. The Big Bang Theory has less sex in it than many other comedies these days.

they still rely to heavily on sex jokes IMO



My all time are in no particular order:

HIMYM (The story telling is amazingly consistent, even though it is dragged a bit it's still VERY funny)
FRIENDS (You can't stop watching Friends can you?)
Seinfeld
Scrubs
Simpsons (Even the alst seasons can't ruin the first decade of pure awesomeness)
South Park
American Dad (Yes better than Family guy )
Futurama
Married with Children
Frasier

Honourable Mentions:
Big Bang Theory (Died out last two seasons though)
Family Guy (I still watch it, but I loved Evil Stewey waaay more than sexually confused Stewey)
Inbetweeners (can get hilarious)
Fresh Prince of Bel Air

Sitcoms I HATE

Two and a Half Men (It's not THAT bad, it's just annoying it has that many fans. Amazingly I prefer Ashton to Charlie Sheen)
Cleveland Show
Any sitcom with a cliche "American Family" setting, especially the new ones
Most series that have silly themes or copy off other shows to gain some success or try hard to make an unlikeable character likeable
