    Sitcoms

    These were very popular especially in the 1990s. What are some of your favourite sitcoms.

    Seinfeld. Not that there's anything wrong with that

      Old British comedy for me: George and Mildred, Love Thy Neighbour, Man About The House are some of my favorites.

        Some Mothers Do Ave Em was great British sitcom as well.

          Day's Army is my favourite comedy of all time. I can watch episodes over and over again.

          Other than that Fawlty Towers makes me laugh every time-you know what's going to happen but John Cleese is a genius. A few from more recent times that I really like are Community, Trailer Park Boys and the American and English versions of The Office. The last series of the US Office which only finished a couple of months ago was great. I really enjoyed Parks And Recreation too.
          They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

              Agreed, I can't believe I didn't mention that! I've seen Community, not bad but I don't see it having the lasting impact of some others. I liked Married...with Children too. I like Two and A Half Men... Eps of that got me through my recent overseas trip.

                My favourites of all time are Seinfeld, Fawlty Towers, The Office (UK) and Extras. Could watch them all over and over again.

                  Got into it late but I love Arrested Development.

                  Have been into The Big Bang Theory way before it became popular and was played to death by Channel 9, and never miss Eastbound and Down.

                      Couldn't you have just stayed home and watched TV?

                            I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be too over the top to say Eastbound and down is the greatest thing produced in mankind's history. - I guess we now know who Goose is.

                              Two of my favourites would have to be Cheers and Frasier. The writers were so clever. I still watch the occasional episode on Foxtel and still laugh.

                              More recently I'd say Modern Family.
