Which comedy is currently the best on broadcast television? (ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC).

EmoJoe · 06-12-2012, 11:43 PM

I chose 30 Rock. But if someone chose Community, Parks & Recreation, or Happy Endings, I would not be mad at them.

'Big Bang' is the only current sitcom that I ever watch.

Mr. Television · 06-13-2012, 10:24 AM

Big Bang Theory

yankeesrj12 · 06-13-2012, 05:16 PM

I voted for Mike & Molly, but The Big Bang Theory is a very, very close second.

factsoflife · 06-13-2012, 05:18 PM

Happy Endings or Modern Family. without a doubt.

Mike & Molly is a very underrated show. It's quickly becoming one of my favorites.

1) Parks and Recreation
2) Modern Family
3) New Girl
4) The Middle
5) Mike & Molly

If we're going for lifetime achievement, then "The Office" takes the cake but that show is lame now.

Raising Hope is my #1 favorite show right now. I also really love Parks and Recreation.

hawkeye123 · 06-14-2012, 12:22 AM

Agreed. I missed a lot of season 8, but I will be back for season 9 and stay until the end. It's become painful to watch. It's a real shame what's happened to such a wonderful show. I can sort of deal with Michael leaving. I can't deal with recycled plots and storylines bordering on insanity. How many crazy parties and meetings can one place actually have? Maybe Jan can find a baby sitter and convince corporate to allow her to come back to work.

My favorite current comedies, in order:

1. 30 Rock
2. Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23
3. 2 Broke Girls
4. New Girl
5. Up All Night
6. The Big Bang Theory
7. The Office
8. How I Met Your Mother

How many of them have you actually seen? Because there is a hell of a lot of great comedies on the air right now.
