Who's Line is it Anyway is the funniest show on TV.
will and grace, or my wife and kids :suffer:
Absolutely Fabulous. Or anything with French and Saunders in really.
I'd also put in a vote for Whose Line is it Anyway? Partly because it *is* hilarious, but mostly because I don't watch a lot of comedies or sitcoms any more. (Close runner-up status for The Daily Show and Mystery Science Theater 3000.)
Peace & Luv, Liz
Well, I voted for Seinfield! Gotta love that show...yada yada yada!
But if Who's line was up there, I'd have voted for it!

Jeez I'm forgetting lots of stuff today. First I leave The Simpsons off the cartoon poll, now the Daily Show? What is wrong with me?
I've only watched a few episodes of friends, and I have no idea what the other options are, so I'll refrain from voting. I'm not much into that kind of shows anyway. :S

gilmore girls is more of a sweet commedy more than a sitcom, well I think so
I do see that one sometimes (when I remember lol :P), its just really sweet general speaking :)
it is the only tv program i watch ; ) ...but i hardly do that lately... not much time anymire ; ( ...i'm more into movies anyways
What?! You've left out all the good ones! :o Doesn't anyone watch British comedies? What about Black Books, Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, Fawlty Towers, Black Adder, Red Dwarf and The Goodies? Those shows are classic !!!
Dharma and Greg is good, as far as those types of shows go.

You left out "Yes, Minister", "Are you being served?" and "Monty Python's Flying Circus"!! Now those are
classics!
I never "Friends" or "Seinfield" too funny... mostly amusing but nothing to make you ROTF about. The two other shows I don't know. As for "The Daily Show"... I think maybe you need to be an american to find it funny, since I didn't for the most part.
The funniest show I watched lately was "Scrubs"... it's not on anymore here though :(
"Are you being served?" is great, I haven't seen it for a while though. Mostly it was one of those late night shows I'd watch while my parents were playing bridge at night.

Whoops! My bad !!! Though anything British and witty has potential. I'm not much for American humour. And Australian humour is hit and miss. When it's good, it's good. But it's not always good :(.
Scrubs got cancelled here as well :'( >:(. It started out prime time and they kept moving the slot until it was being shown at about 1 am. I dont get why - it was such a good show :(.
Seinfeld, Will and Grace, and My Wife and Kids ;D
They are my favourite TV shows :D, they rock ;D, unfortunately i heard Will and Grace is finishing soon :'(
Jael -
It's pretty much the same here :( They only buy shows which already proved themselves in the US, and when they fail to become instant hits, they don't buy the following season (even if there are more episodes). That's what happened here with BtVS :'(

1.
I know!! It sucks!!2. What's BtVS?
3. Where's "here"?
QuoteYou mean that we lost Scrubs , i never realised they cancelled it here
I don't know that they've actually cancelled it. So far as I know, they've just put it on at some stupid hour. CURSE YOU, Powers That Be!! >:(
I know this was a ways back in this thread...but I agree with Rob! Gilmore Girls is hysterical!
Will & Grace, Friends and Gilmour Girls does have some really funny moments too XD!
Fawlty Towers and Mr. Bean were great British shows left off...
Mr. Bean is awesome. ;D
Fawlty Towers knocks me off my rocker. Manuel is hilarious! :D
FATHER TED, maaaaaaaaan. Oh, and Mr Bean cracked me up as a kid :D
The Fawlty Towers with the fire and the Germans is classic.
Oh my goodness, was it EVER. John Cleese doing the SS March....TOO FUNNY! :D :D :D :D :D:D
I would say Red Dwarf. I hadn't seen it in the longest time, but I just recently bought Series 1-4 on DVD. It's just excellent.
However, I voted for Seinfeld. Simply because it's probably the best show ever. If Red Dwarf was one of the choices, I'd vote for it, but mostly because it'd be a bit of an underdog.
Seinfeld
Red Dwarf was good but it isnt my favourite comedy show ;D
I can't believe that I actually forgot my all-time favourite - CNNNN. Brilliant satire ;B :suffer:
I'd just like to say that I like the name of Katie's laptop. ;D
I never got to watch many episodes of Buffy, but the ones I did watch I always thought Xander was the best.
Peace & Luv, Liz
Between the sarcasm, the geek factor, and the being hot, I *totally* would've dated Xander.
You should borrow or rent the season dvds, they're great! Haha, we spent most of that second weekend in NYC watching way too much Buffy ;)
I think every female in the world loves Buffy. It's like a disease...:D
Quote from: KatieHal on May 12, 2004, 08:21:43 AM
YAY BUFFY!! I've recently borrowed season 1-4 and am totally hooked. My new laptop's name is Xander (yay Xander!). I can't wait to watch the other seasons, and am also bummed it's cancelled. Storm, do you watch Angel? That one is in its last season here.
I watch them both religiously... Right now I'm on season 7 of Buffy and 4 of Angel, so no spoilers please 8)

Storm you write in English better than a NUMBER of Americans I've encountered.
Thanks... I still make heaps of mistakes though :-[
So do I, and it's my mother tongue.
Katie's right....your English is good. I wouldn't have known it wasn't your mother tongue unless you told me.
My favorite funniest show would have to be "Whos Line Is It Anyway". I don't watch much television, and this is the funniest one I watch. My absolute favorite shows are the ones on A&E. The shows about solving murders and CSI are the best to me. . . sounds a little creepy when you think about it. a humourous serial killer. . . . you all know who to blame if someone is dead in a clown suite. . . .LOL just kidding. I am too new to make jokes like that.

Indeed, Storm's English is (almost) as good as mine. 8)
Gee, thanks CC! :D
hahahaha, and way better then mine!! ; ) ..o well, i have improved ...a bit ;-D

If you hang around people of who(m) the majority write perfect English that is to be expected. XB
I have FINALLY found a show on TV I find funny enough to vote for(don't really find any of the shows mentioned funny...). ;P
Monk. :P
Now, Jafar, get to fixing this poll. ;)
OMGSH! Monk!! *loves Monk* We have the first season on DVD. :P *votes for other as well* XD
I have some season on DVD... forget what season though(I'm just sure it wasn't the first). :P
The poll looks like it has been tampered with :P
I like Monk, Rocky & Bullwinkle, HitchHiker's Guide, Whose Line and some others..

Ok, thanks for clearing that up :P
But still technically speaking, it has been tampered with ;P
Going with that logic, ALL the threads have! :o :P
Also if we were to continue with that logic, the person that changed the forum over was the one that tampered with them all :P
Arrested Development is by far the funniest show on televion. Also Seinfeld is the best show in syndication ;D
Arrested development quote
Michael: What comes before anything? What have we always said is the most important thing?
George Michael: Breakfast.
Michael: Family.
George Michael: Family, right. I thought you meant of the things you eat.
Seinfeld is probably the greatest comedy I've ever seen. I own the DVD's, etc, so I really enjoy the show. EVER episode is classic, so it's absolutely impossible to call my favorite, although someday I'll try to make a list.
