Top Ten American Sitcoms Ever Page 6

Good top three, though for me at the moment I would replace Curb with 30 Rock.

Fair enough, I've heard it's very good but haven't checked that show out yet.

In terms of amimated shows Futurama is the king and along ith Monkey Dust the only 2 I really like.

Stuff like Family Guy and American Dad- utter garbage.

I think I've watched the all-time worst sitcom this morning. It is American. Will and Grace. I've never seen it before, so this morning I watched one episode and it was totally dire.

Well, not totally dire, Jack.

List of awards won by Will & Grace:-

Will & Grace had been nominated for 83 and won 16 Emmys. From 2001-2005, Will & Grace was the highest-rated sitcom among adults 18-49.

Both Sean Hayes and Megan Mullally hold the record of winning the most Screen Actors Guild Awards for the categories Best Performance by an Actor in a Comedy Series and Best Performance by an Actress in a Comedy Series, respectively, for their roles in Will & Grace.

I know you've all been waiting for my opinion on the Top Ten American Sitcoms of all time, so wait no longer -

Frasier (so good, it could have been written by British people)
The Big Bang Theory
Scrubs
The Simpsons
South Park
Family Guy
Cheers
Soap
Larry Sanders
Curb Your Enthusiasm

And there you have it.

Honourable mentions to many others that have entertained me like Happy Days, Friends and 3rd Rock From the Sun - but I wouldn't put them in my top ten.

1) Seinfeld
2) Arrested Development
3) Stella
4) The Office
5) It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
6) The Adventures of Pete & Pete
7) Andy Richter Controls the Universe
8) Eastbound & Down
9) 30 Rock
10) Curb Your Enthusiasm

I didn't include animated shows (though The Simpsons and King of the Hill would make my top 10 US comedy shows) or Flight of the Conchords because I consider it a Kiwi sitcom.

It's a few more than ten, but who cares? Can't believe nobody mentioned "Married...with Children"????

3rd Rock from the Sun

All in the Family

Adventures of Pete and Pete

Barney Miller

The Bob Newhart Show

Newhart

Cheers

Curb Your Enthusiasm

Adventures of Pete and Pete

very good choice, fascinating show, children still like it and I still love it so it has something of universal appeal there.

ARTIE! The strongest man in the world!

Yes. And if you haven't watched 30 Rock yet you may need to evaluate your list, Andrea.
