Comedy

November 13, 2008

My series on good comedy is almost done. I want to revisit all the series we’ve seen so far, and make a Top 7. It’s a personal list, I don’t have to justify it.

  1. ????
  2. Coupling
  3. That ’70s Show
  4. Scrubs
  5. Frasier
  6. Fawlty Towers
  7. Married… With Children

I’m saving number one on the list for later, but there’s a small hint under the link. Stay tuned.

  1. Malcolm in the Middle was great but it was dragged on too long, imnsho. Of course you don’t have to justify anything, but I’m mystified by “Married… With Children” to me it seems the lowest of the low brow.

  2. One of the **best** Frasier clips. Nothing else so exemplified his personality.

  3. You need to watch “Arrested Development”. For most people, they say it’s the best comedy of the decade. Free viewing at Hulu.com if you use a proxy server to emulate your IP address as US one.

  4. What, no Two And A Half Men? You disappoint me…

  5. Fawlty Towers

    ++, greatest sitcom of all time.

    Surprised not to see Futurama on the list, though!
