    Hey guys, apologies for what could be construed as a selfish thread. But I've been watching a few sitcoms and other comedy shows lately and have ran out completely! haha! I was wondering if any of you guys have any suggestions? I have seen most of the popular shows but I'll list the ones I've seen that I can remember.

    I have been watching or have seen the following:

    The Office
    Arrested Development
    30 Rock
    The Inbetweeners
    Peep Show
    Modern Family
    The Big Bang Theory
    2.5 Men
    How I met your mother
    All of Seth MacFarlane's work (not a sitcom I know) and the likes of South Park etc.
    Life's too Short
    An Idiot Abroad
    COMMUNITY!! (Watch this....SERIOUSLY!)

    There's probably more but I can't remember off the top of my head. If anyone has a wee hidden gem, or just a good show that I might not have seen would you be so kind as to let me know!? haha!

    Hopefully if anyone else is in the same predicament they can watch something from my list or the comments below.

    (p.s. mods: I'm unsure if this thread is allowed to be here or whatever, so if it's inappropriate...do your thing! haha!)

    Cheers guys!

    Don't watch much in the way of TV nowadays, but there are plenty of good ones down through the years, and quite a few stand the test of time... Frasier, for example.

    Scrubs and Friends are far and away the best sit coms that ever aired on televisions. They will both become timeless greats.

    Two and a Half mens
    BIg bang theory (actually quite good)
    King of Queens

    Best comedy show on tv. Closely followed by Two 1/2 men, then Big Bang, then HIMYM.

    The first 5 seasons were great though. The rest of that list is * though, Two And A Half Men is maybe the worst thing ever. The Big Bang Theory has one joke "LOL THEY'RE SOCIALLY AWKWARD".
