    Best Comedy Ever

    Best Comedy Ever

    I think the best comedy ever made was Cheers. I say that as I see the repeats (on UK's CH4) all the time. And they still seem very funny.

    Often other comedies do not seem as good after a few shows.

    Not sure if you have seen the Goodies (it was a UK show in the 70's) but I thought it was so mad it was cool.

    Cheers was good...I think Seinfeld and All In The Family are probably the top 2.

    Some people will say MASH..while it was good..I got tired of the old vaudevill type humor Alan Alda interjected into every episode..it got real old.

      All In The Family was probably one of the most progressive shows on TV ever.

      Most of the things said and done now that are considered taboo..were done even back then in the early to mid 70's.

      You couldn't write that show today. No network would allow it...a racist you loved to hate...but deep down you knew had the "heart of gold."

              How about Blackadder ?



              Talking about "mean humor"... hehehe

              I love it, just like the Monty Python stuff.

                Monty Python - ok. Not great
                The Young Ones - yes. One of the best.
                Bottom - a spin off from the young ones, but very cool.
                Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em - not bad.

                Others:
                Blackadder (all) - loved a lot.
                Phoenix Nights - cool
                Absolutely Fabulous - cool
                Benny Hill - cool
                Chelmsford 123 - cool


                USA:
                ALF - cool, but Sky took it over and I never saw any more of it.
                Fresh Prince Of Bell Air - this is still very cool.

                  Priceless.

                  The sad thing is that Caroll, just like Bill Cosby, lost a son.

                  Nobody deserves that, I know, but I get contradictive emotions thinking about their loss and humorous personality at once.

                    Every one should see The Young Ones at least once

                    Of current comedies I like "Everybody Loves Raymond" and it is guaranteed to go into my list of best ever.

                    I like slap-sticky comedy but would have to think long and hard to pick a favorite ever so here's some of my most favorites (no particular order)

                    (of course) The Young Ones
                    Are You Being Served
                    The Bob Newhart Show
                    Mr. Bean
                    Keeping Up Appearances
                    All of Lucy's series
                    Gilligan's Island
                    The Honeymooners
                    3rd Rock from the Sun
                    The Drew Carey Show

                    These weren't sitcoms, but some of my most favorite comedy series

                    Benny Hill
                    The Carol Burnette show
                    Who's Line is it Anyway
                    An Evening at the Improv
                    Tracy Ullman
                    Candid Camera
                    .

                                Agreed but it is a copy of a UK tv show called Till Death Do Us Part'


                                I love so many of the shows mentioned..Blackaddar is very special inded.

                                I will throw Red Dwarf into the mix because it is my fave.

                                      Cheers and Seinfeld. Now, the Daily Show, although it's a different category by itself.

                                      Simpsons is a classic. Futurama was also great. But I think right now, South Park is the cutting edge.

                                        Fawlty Towers - didnt make a bad episode, brilliant

                                        Phoenix Nights - recently bought the box set and it aint as good as i thought, some great bits though

                                        Red Dwarf - THE BEST, no doubt about it, -series 7 its the best comedy ever

                                        And from what ive seen Monty Python is brilliant as well


                                        from us

                                        Ive always liked south park and watching old episodes of cheers, they are good.

                                                Arrested Development is pretty recent, but goddamn, that shit cracks me up. Not many shows can literally make me laugh out loud. And i'm a huge fan of Yes Minister. The best political satire comedy of all time in my opinion.

                                                      Each generation has a different view, I hated Mash for one, but southpark is brilliant, the simpsons has its moments but still has alot of dumb stuff, Family Guy is taking a larger audeicne now as well. Hard to say what really is best.
