The Complete List
« on: September 22, 2011, 03:55:48 PM »
I never watch television, which have led to that I never watch random episodes of random series. So these are all the series I've watched the last five-six years. I didn't bother to rate them, but I made simple distinction between shows I think are good/great and shows I think are mediocre. I made a * behind shows I would give a perfect score though.

Comedy I've really enjoyed:
-------------------------------------
Curb Your Enthusiasm*
Arrested Development*
Community
Bored to Death*
Extras
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia*
The Office US*
The Office UK
Seinfeld
Scrubs
Parks and Recreation
Phineas and Ferb
Spaced
Fawlty Towers
Modern Family
Louie
Friends
The Inbetweeners
Wilfred AUS
Wilfred US
Peep Show*
Nissene PĂ„ LĂ„ven

Comedy I've somewhat enjoyed:
-------------------------------------
Balls of Steel
Big Bang Theory
Black Books
Dinosaurs
The Simpsons
South Park
Futurama
A Bit of Fry and Laurie
Flight of the Conchords
How I Met Your Mother
Will and Grace
The King of Queens
Everybody Loves Raymond
Two and a Half Men

Drama/Other shows I've really enjoyed:
-------------------------------------
Breaking Bad*
Weeds
Men of a Certain Age*
QI
Mythbusters
Life (US Drama)
Life (BBC docu)*
Planet Earth (BBC docu)*
Earth, The Power of the Planet (BBC docu)
South Pacific (BBC docu)*
The Walking Dead
Dexter
Mad Men*
Louis Theroux's Weird Weekends (BBC journalism)

Drama/Other shows I've somewhat enjoyed:
-------------------------------------
Reaper
Lie to Me


Discuss, give us your complete list, favorites, recommendations, whatever... anything related to the topic really.
I would love to get some tips on other shows to watch, as I am a total comedy junkie :P

You must be a really sad person.  :| But I forgive you since you're from Norway.

Because I don't love them or because I like them even just a little bit? :P

If the former is the case: You probably won't appreciate cheap and unoriginal comedy that focuses on one liners and slapstick humor (this is my perception of sitcoms like tbbt, himym, taahm) once you've seen as much comedy as I have. True comedy magic depends a lot on innovation for me, like the outrageously unlikable (but hilarious) characters in sunny, the everyday awkward situation dialog like in curb, the political/society based discussions in peep show or the weed-related/stoned conversations in bored to death.

Don't go calling me sad just cause we have different tastes, my opinion is just as valid as yours. :P

How dare you put Black Books and A bit of Fry and Laurie on "somewhat enjoyed"? D: You should be ashamed of yourself.

Phineas and Ferb is a shitty kids show  :| Please explain what you enjoy about it? I heard it was made by the creators of The Simpsons so I decided to check it out, but it's unbelievably simpleminded and immature. They air it on Disney Channel for godness sake.

I'm just being honest dude
Fry and laurie: some of the scenes were hilarious, others were annoying or dull
black books: bill bailey is a fucking comedy genius, I love his style. bernard can be pretty funny at times. fran is unfunny and a bad actor. mediocre writing. imo

Edit: DON'T FUCK WITH PHINEAS AND FERB, NOAH! seriously download it in english of course and watch a few episodes, it's original, entertaining and wacky. of course it has it's "kid show moments", but it also has tons of humor and references that no kid would get

Because you don't love them. Who doesn't love HIMYM? D:

I explained it in my post above. For me it's predictable and cheap.

What does the Disney Channel have to do with anything? Nickelodeon (the home of every abysmal teen comedy ever made) was the home of Invader Zim - one of the best animated comedies of the last decade. Even the worst channels can occasionally have a shining light.

Also, keep in mind that a person's opinion can never be wrong simply because you don't share it. Someone, somewhere likes Lady Gaga - even though she's stupid.

Bas: It was alright, Tim Roth is cool anyway. The whole idea of the show was kinda weak to me though.

I'm not seeing any suggestions :(
