Lads I'm running out of top tier content, please list the good stuff. I've marathoned:
>Frasier
>Seinfeld
>Arrested Development
>Peep Show
>Curb Your Enthusiasm
>The Office
>Keeping Up Appearances
Where do I go from here?
Greatest TV comedies of all time
>>The Office
Never watched it, but isn't this show pure distilled redditism?
The yank version is. The original British version is unironically high art.
Up Appearances
This is the only one I never heard of. What is it?
I’m sitting here completely surrounded by no beer. Watch it for Onslow.
Cheers
Wings
Taxi
Excellent suggestions! I forgot about Wings, my family used to quite that episode where they keep flying the old guy to different cities because he couldn't remember where he was supposed to go and it ends with him going "maybe it WAS Las Cruces..."
90s Brit com about a woman obsessed with climbing the social ladder and her henpecked sexless husband trying not to murder/suicide the two of them. Great actors, small cast.
Some anons hate it because it was popular, but it really is something special.
30 Rock, Cheers or Malcolm in the Middle.
30 Rock is one of the best written shows of all time.
Trailer Park Boys (Showcase seasons)
Blacks Books
Blackadder
Always Sunny (until like season 7 or so)
NewsRadio
Becker
Based and WNYXpilled
I just wish it didn't have that VHS video quality. But I was delighted when I found it, I was searching through many shows to find something new (old) and good but nothing really connected with me. Then I found NewsRadio. It took a while but the crazy characters and most of all Phil Hartman got me hooked.
It was the first live perfomance of him I've ever seen, I'm from the EU but knew of him from the Simpsons and some Cinemaphile threads, but that character and performance was simply great entertainment. And then I wanted to know more about him and learned how he died.
Losing Phil sent us into the wrong timeline
I wouldn't be surprised, I rarely ever watch an episode of the fifth season because he's missing. It's not the same.
In the early days of the podcast, Joe Rogan had Dave Foley on his show a couple of times. They would talk about the old days, and the Phil stories were always so much fun.
Becker is also a fun show. The character isn't just a cookie cutter curmudgeon for the sake of it. He's got dimensions. It's cleverly written, and it knows its audience.
Green Wing
The Mick was greatness.
based on your choices:
nathan for you
first three seasons of archer
always sunny in philly up to season 7/8
fawlty towers
inbetweeners (show only. no movies)
police squad
The Inbetweeners movies are funny as fuck. They're not kino but they're good for belly laughs.
The Simpsons. It created comedy.
Eastbound & Down, It's Always Sunny up to season 10, Peep Show, The Inbetweeners
The first or first two episodes of All Aussie Adventures is great. Maybe you can hang on for longer.
In gonna give you some bong recommendations
Jam/blue jam (one is on the radio)
The day today
Brass Eye
Nathan Barley
Green Wing
Spaced
Garth Marenghi's Darkplace
Black Books
Father Ted (inb4 butthurt paddies, it was a British co-production)
The IT crowd
Teachers (the first few seasons anyway)
I'm Alan Partridge
Inbetweeners, Vice Principals and Nathan For You are the best 2010 comedies
I think Vice Principals is a better dramedy than a comedy. Eastbound & Down is the comedy.
>M*A*S*H
The version without the canned laughter is superior: You can find it easily on the 7 seas with the keyword "canned laughter." I watch it yearly starting September. It's my comfy fall/winter show. The weird part is I didn't grow up with this show. I only started watching it in my early 20s. It's weird because it's such a good show that a lot of my generation sleeps on.
Apart from that I like
>Everybody Hates Chris
>Limmy's Show
>Dinosaurs (1991)
>'Allo 'Allo
>M*A*S*H
>The version without the canned laughter is superior
Absolutely agreed. Great comedy show in general but it's not for everyone.
>Friends
>Scrubs
>Malcolm In the Middle
>Cheers
>King Of Queens
Nobody has mentioned The Larry Sanders Show yet.
You haven't seen very much. How do you already think you're running out? I kind of hate you.
