OH YES! its a follow-up thread to the
extremely popular "dumbest American sitcom"-thread..

lets mention the obvious: seinfeld, frasier, the larry
sanders show..

it's written by and stars larry david (writer from
sienfeld)... basically, it's about how larry david manages
to piss of some one in ever episode... but in really bizarre
and dark ways... and it's always on accident

I love Seinfeld and the Simpsons... I also watch Friends (so

Prince was great... The Cosby Show was good... that's about
it...

I just watched the episode of Seinfeld with Kramer
rebuilding the original "Merv Griffin Show"-set in his
appartment.

I've seen that episode before, but I swear, I laughed out
loud for about 8 minutes, tears in my eyes.. god, I can't
remember laughing that long and that strong in a long time..
:)

YEAH! and Elaine asks him: "Kramer, is something wrong?" and
he goes: "why would you say that?" and she says: "well for
starters you're reading from cards.."..

and later, when George walks in, he switches on a
taperecorder with the theme music - I nearly stopped
breathing..

mouth and drinking cola from a can..

haha, yes yes, that episode is hilarious...

I love Newman though on that show... I especially love the
one when Newman comes in and is asked what he does for a
living, and then George or Jerry asks "Aren't you the ones
who go crazy, and shoot everyone?" and then Newman pauses
for a second and says with a serious, and devious look on
his face "Sometimes!"... haha, that gets me everytime...
just the way he says it... :)

I dont really enjoy any of the current American
Sitcoms..Simpsons yeah but that's cheating in my book..Just
Shoot Me is mildly amusing....

English stuff on the other hand..is another story

Spaced
Black Books

the two best sitcoms I have seen in ages...

The one where Kramer has oral surgery or something so he
can't speak clearly, and he wears these prototype athletic
shoes that make him look like a retard, and he ends up at a
fancy dinner winning an award for "being brave and living on
his own" and Mel Torme is singing to him.

The one where Susan has a doll that looks just like George's
mother.

how dare you insult the seinfeld/ curb your enthusiasm name!
two great shows, and the only decent shows currently on
television. besides futurama, of course. and the daily show.
alright, so there are four good shows on tv, and one of them
is in reruns.
