Nothing ever happens on The Dick Van Dyke show, it is the safest and most plain show with zero intricacies. Twin Peaks was the model for modern television, because they introduced an arc and kept with it.

It's a real sitcom. No one said you need an arc to keep interested. Every show was funny.

Agreed. The first season was fresh and innovative and genuinely funny. Ever since, the show has gotten painfully redundant, cliche and too sitcom-ish.

Whoa whoa whoa whoa, MASH is legit.
Lets see if I can throw together a list.
1 Parks and Rec
2 Seinfeld
3 MASH (Not sure id put it on a list of pure comedies, but yea)
4 Arrested Dev
5 Simpsons
6 Fresh Prince
7 Modern Fam
8 Community
9 30 Rock
0 Cheers
Freaks and Geeks would be #2 on this if you consider it a comedy.

I don't understand Parks & Rec being on top of current lists, let alone all time. Good, but not amazing.

I dont think ive ever laughed more at a show than I have at Parks and Rec, so yea, thats why. I think ive had to pause P&R to compose myself more than I have from all of the other shows combined.

I don't see every episode, but I do catch it as much as I see Community, which I prefer. I just don't know.

I never really loved That 70s Show. It was solid to good, but it would never crack a top 10 list for me.

A good comedy does not repeat such a specific set of jokes so routinely. Big Bang Theory is all about nerds that can't socially adapt and the awkwardness that comes with that. Two and a Half Men is a million fart, sex, emasculation of men jokes. Even on what is now a very average show like The Office, there's a broader range of comedic situations. They don't hammer home the same things.

And they can't even do that right. That's why the show is awful.
