Funniest TV show ever? - 2003-04 Mach 1 Registry Owners Club

Shaker1 · 09-18-2006, 06:39 AM

Just started re-watching 3rd Rock From The Sun - Season 1. I propose it is the funniest TV show ever!

Three examples:

[after drinking household chemicals]
Harry Solomon: Um, I've lost all feeling in the left side of my body.
[Looks at upside-down can]
Harry Solomon: Could somebody please call "116"?

D1ck Solomon: Where would we be without the agitators of the world attaching the electrodes of knowledge to the nipples of ignorance?

[after finding out his father was "the Big Head"]
D1ck Solomon: I don't know who I am anymore!
Harry Solomon: Well, your first name is D1ck, and your last name is Head...

Hammer · 09-18-2006, 10:36 AM

MASH is my all time favorite show

Orange whip 04 · 09-18-2006, 02:53 PM

Green Acres always made me laugh. Thats my pick. Anyone for Hot cakes ?

Phil · 09-18-2006, 03:02 PM

I like to watch "All In The Family"/"Sanford & Son".

73mach · 09-18-2006, 03:12 PM

family guy is the funniest show ever

fiveliter · 09-18-2006, 03:34 PM

Seinfeld gives me the biggest laughs. Even episodes I've numerous times.

FordMan · 09-18-2006, 03:34 PM

Green Acres/Sanford & Son

birdman941 · 09-18-2006, 03:38 PM

Police Squad! (In COLOR!!)
Probably no one remembers it.
It was the precursor of the movies.
It ran 6 weeks before cancellation.
Guess it was too funny for TV.

JJPMach1 · 09-18-2006, 04:08 PM

I have to say I really enjoy Arrested Development. That show is hysterical, Just hard to find on the Dial.

pic18 · 09-18-2006, 08:27 PM

Maybe not the funniest of all time, but Curb Your Enthusiasm makes me laugh out loud every episode.

I hate that show. That know-it-all prosecutor, the guy. He just pisses me off, I would whack his creator with a bat.

Off

carry on.

FordMan · 09-19-2006, 12:40 PM

Ahh, but Perry Mason on the other side of the fence was also a know-it-all

MachNewbieGuy · 09-19-2006, 03:20 PM

-The Office-

That takes my vote. I can I can relate to some of the skits. I think that whole cast is hilarious. Also Seinfield. Classic.

So was Ironchair....errr...I mean Ironsides. And he looked a lot like Perry Mason too.

beerformeplz · 09-19-2006, 03:53 PM

That 70s show.

That is currently my favorite show. For all the unaware, the writer of Seinfeld, Larry David, is the star and creator of this show. A little trivia, Larry David was Steinbrenner on Seinfeld episodes. It is kinda like Seinfeld with a much more obscene edge. One show dealt with Larry having a pube stuck in his throat. High comedy there!

MachTN · 09-19-2006, 04:34 PM

Between Seinfeld and M*A*S*H. Both had top shelf writers.

I laugh out loud at The Daily Show w/John Stewart and The Colbert Report. Great writing, especially Colbert playing the ultra conservative host..."playing" the operative word there.

Anyone else find them funny? The Comedy Channel nightly.

The_Wretched · 09-19-2006, 04:38 PM

i have a 3 way tie.....

family guy, the simpsons and boy meets world.

GreatOne99 · 09-19-2006, 04:58 PM

seinfeld

MACHDADDY · 09-19-2006, 05:02 PM

Can Never Beat Night Court. That Was The Show.

Quixotis · 09-19-2006, 05:51 PM

Anyone watch Get A Life staring Chris Elliott? Brilliant.

Elliott's character actually dies in twelve episodes. The causes of death included being crushed by a giant boulder, old age, tonsillitis, stab wounds, gunshot wounds, falling from an airplane, strangulation, getting run over by cars, choking on cereal (he made it funny way before our president did), and simply exploding.

They just don't make TV like that anymore.

It wasn't funny though.
He was gay.
He's dead now.
