Funniest Sitcoms of All Time

[Grays_1890]

I know its all about personal taste, but i dont find american comedy funny at all

I don't like many, find too many juvenile or shouty, but some are very good and subtle IMO.

The IT Crowd

Nathan Barley

....additions to the list

Inbetweeners.
Kath and Kim
King of the Hill

recently..Big Boys was very good

Inbetweeners and Nathan Barley are good shouts.

Good list. Nice to see Soap getting a mention.
But definitely missing Friends.

I challenge you to post one Friends clip that's funny. I mean, I get the appeal of the show for women, but I've never found it funny.

Spurs

I was just wondering if all or nothing counted, although it's a tragi comedy.

I've never been sure if that's meant as a comedy or a parody. Like a Garth Marenghi style piece.

When I was a kid I would watch it with my parents with the Sunday spread of home made cakes, honestly loved it, sparks so many great memories

Peep Show. No one else even close.

IT Crowd is also excellent and I enjoyed The Inbetweeners a lot. Freaks and Geeks! Loved it.

Not sure if it's a sit Com or not but auf wiedersehen pet.

Fraiser still holds up. The wife watches repeats of it and has brought African art on the back of "fraiser has it in his apartment"

Which is when I shout back, flat he has it in his flat.

Phoneshop is SO cleverly written. One of my all time favourites. Plus Friday Night Dinner

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia (I believe it's also the longest running, for what it's worth).

My most underrated is coupling, fantastic show that was genuinely hilarious, brilliantly crafted.

No mention of arrested development so far is absurd as well.

Is Seinfeld actually funny? Like Friends it just seems like biege stodge to put on in the background but each to their own.

I think the UK office is a work of art, but I'm not sure it's the "funniest". Not into the US version at all but many people are, so what do I know..

Arrested Development was the only funny US sitcom.

Fawlty Towers is funny.
Friends is occasionally mildly amusing.
