Workplace Comedy. Since my three favorite sitcoms are "NewsRadio" "Andy Richter Controls the Universe" and "Wings".

Second would be Family Comedy. Followed by Buddy/Relationship Comedy.

Crimson and Clover · 07-15-2003, 07:41 PM

*Pleasant Tomorrow* · 07-15-2003, 08:42 PM

My fav is buddy/relationship comedy...like Three's Company, Will and Grace. I just get into those easier.

Impressions · 07-15-2003, 09:04 PM

I like all of those sitcom genres, but if I were to on choose my favorite it would be Buddy/Relationship Comedy.

LucyCompanyPhan · 07-15-2003, 10:43 PM

Buddy-Relationship. I like I Love Lucy & Friends and Threes Company and thats all bouy friends and closeness.

Janice · 07-15-2003, 11:40 PM

I love family shows such as The Dick Van Dyke Show, All In The Family, The Jeffersons, Perfect Strangers or workplace comedies such Mary Tyler Moore, Barney Miller, Cheers or Coach.
I love Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm, King of Queens and Will & Grace.
Just leave the KIDS out of it. Everybody Loves Raymond does a good job at staying an adult comedy although the couple has children.

Scooter22 · 07-15-2003, 11:41 PM

I voted Family Comedy

*PinkLady* · 07-15-2003, 11:45 PM

I like some shows in each genre. I don't have a favorite.

JT · 07-16-2003, 09:36 AM

Well, my number one fave would be Buddy/Relationship, but stressing more on the Buddy part over the relationship part. In other words, I like the more older shows in that type, such as "Three's Company," "Laverne & Shirley," and, when you think about it, "Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman." I also love family sitcoms, of all times, such as "The Donna Reed Show," "Dennis the Menace," "Hazel," "The Partridge Family," "Step by Step," and "8 Simple Rules." I also love workplace shows, mainly the ones from the 70s and early 80s though, like "Alice," "The Bob Newhart Show," "Barney Miller," and "Benson."

I like workplace comedies and single camera/no laughtrack comedies the best.

barwars · 07-16-2003, 11:10 AM

I like all types of comedies, although this might sound really stupid....

what would be considered a single camera/no laughtrack comedy??

Would Larry Sanders fit in that category??

And wasn't Happy Days originally shot with a single camera/no laughtrack??

If so.... then I defiantely like all types of comedy.

With the exception of certain shows from certain genres.
