It's been a while since we've had a thread like this and I've watches some good ones recently so I wondered which comedies/sitcoms other people were watching?

My top 5 would be;
Scrubs - Hospital based comedy/drama. I think this is one of the best tv series ever made. :)
Not going out - British sitcom which is basically solid jokes
The fresh prince of Bel air - Who doesn't like that?
Father Ted - Sitcom about 3 Irish priests
Big bang theory - Not the funniest every episode but I still like it.

Others; Malcolm in the middle, Allo Allo, Brooklyn 99 and a load of others I'm probably forgetting.


I play less now but I'll always be around, lets keep this site and battlefront going. :)

Hmm, allow me to list a bunch of sitcoms I've seen:

-Full House (family sitcom with Bob Saget)
-Home Improvement (another family sitcom)
-M*A*S*H (do I need to explain this one?)
-Taxi (very funny 80's sitcom)
-Dear John (a more mature sitcom in the 90's, but nonetheless funny)
-Caroline in The City (seen a few episodes, basically about a woman living in a city)
-Dave's World (a very good family sitcom)
-Fresh Prince of Bel-Air (truly a classic sitcom)
-Seinfeld (the pinnacle of sitcoms everywhere)

Now these are the teen sitcoms I've seen/been watching:
-iCarly (about two girls who start a webseries)
-Drake & Josh (one of the best teen sitcoms ever)
-Victorious (pretty good teen sitcom, girl goes to a Hollywood school)
-Life With Boys (sort of a family sitcom as well, 1 sister with 3 brothers)
-Mr. Young (my favourite teen sitcom, about a 15-year old prodigy who teaches at a high school)
-The Thundermans (pretty good sitcom, about a family of superheoes)
-Sam & Cat (the distant sequel to Victorious and iCarly, pretty good though)

If anyone wants my thoughts on these sitcoms, feel free to ask or PM me!

The jackpot 3 right here! ^^

There's one out right now called "The Middle" that is REALLY funny. Like, REALLY FUNNY.
Futurama, a few weeks before it's finale, became my favorite of all time.
Also, Everybody Loves Raymond was probably the first comedy I really enjoyed for awhile.

Incredible Crew was actually pretty entertaining to me (especially the bus episode, which is just too true.)
And How It Should Have Ended's Cafe' Scenes (look it up on youtube, full 30min of epic)

Cannot top these.

A bloody landmark in US comedy.

Monty Python
Surely the most important comedy to have come out of the Isles.

Here's some more Brit comedy:
Faulty Towers
Green Wing (Wonderfully bizarre hospital comedy)

Black Books (Very dry humoured)
Black Adder Goes Forth
The League Of Gentlemen (Very dark humour)
Psychoville (The spiritual successor of The League of Gentlemen, but even darker)

comedies really are not my thing, but do enjoy a little Modern Family from time to time.

Monty Python, Space Balls, Blazing Saddles, Animal House, Talladega Nights, Police Academy (NOTE: these are in order) As for TV: Spongebob, Futurama, South Park, Ed Edd n' Eddy, Tosh.0, Family Guy, American Dad (Also in order)

Black Adder Goes Forth

Truly one of Rowan Atkinson's great roles in comedy.

Which reminds me, forgot to add Mr. Bean to this, the holy grail of comedy.

I'd think Monty Python and the Holy Grail would be the holy grail of comedies (Think about it...) What's Mr. Bean

What's Mr. Bean

* Gold Man shoots Call of Duty point blank in the chest before he can respond.

I cannot believe you have NOT heard of Mr. Bean! He's only the best British comedian ever! You must watch a clip of his show, it's just pure humor!

This one is one of his most popular episodes, titled, "Do It Yourself, Mr. Bean":





The Princess Bride...

Honestly, one of the funniest movies in the history of historical things
