Mr_Oranje [3216409]
So that everyone can get some inspiration of new shows to watch. Post your favourite comedy series of all time below.If you want to post a top 3 that is ok too. I know it is going to be hard to decide as there are so many.

I am still addicted to the US Office, Steve Carell is such a legend.

But I would say my favourite of all time is probably Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Closely followed by a UK classic Only Fools and Horses.

this is a good post, good question,

i have to say as i am in the UK, it would have to be only fools and horses, same as your me choice as you,

i also like the carry on films and shows ,although the humour is of its time,1970's ,some of its script,and storylines are dated and humour that now i can see isnt in use now ,for many different reasons,

my 3rd choice is the young sheldon tv show, as a huge fan of big bang theory tv show,i rememeber its 1st episode on UK tv,
,watched all big bang shows , then watched all them shows during lockdown ,

when young sheldon started it was usa only broadcast,
i had watched clips that usa viewers made of the show,t
hen when it was annouceded to be shown on uk tv, i was pleased about that and watched all young sheldon shows,
the uk is a few seasons/series behind usa viewers,
best wishes x

All my favourites are already listed so thought I'd throw in my alternative top 3 to give others some inspiration.

1) The league of Gentlemen
2) Arrested development
3) Still Game (strong Glasgow accents so tricky for some but very funny)

Notable mention for both UK/US Shameless too but maybe more funny drama rather than pure comedy

Yes. Red Dwarf is magnificence. A lot of sci fi is pompous and too serious. Red Dwarf is fun.

Bottom, The comic strip presents (many many great films in the series)

I always liked Blackadder as well. Rowan Atkinson is a very very funny man.

Forum signatures make my eyes hurt so i have turned them off.

Yay !!! Doctor Who.

I like Father Ted
Becker
Aunty Jack
Trailer Park Boys

(Before comments arrive saying that is not Doctor Who,
I really know that it is indeed Blake's 7)

Haha so your second choice for best series is a bunch of films?

Did you not like Bing Bang Therory more than Young Sheldon then?
