Best US Sitcom?

[lesblue]

I've never been a real lover of American sitcoms, but have recently been introduced to Modern Family.
A well-written, well-acted show in my opinion.
Anyone agree?

[Arti]

Everybody Loves Raymond, Frasier, Soap, Benson (Robert Guillaume was brilliant), Married With Children, Roseanne (the early ones)

[bibblebub]

Curb Your Enthusiasm, Frasier, Cheers, Soap, MASH, and Bilko

[boxtops]

MASH, yes, I agree with that.

[bibblebub]

and Scrubs

[BAKERS DOZEN]

Soap. We still click our fingers and go invisible when we do something wrong.

[Arti]

lol, bakers, I'd forgotten about that

[R1Geezer]

their have been some good ones in the past, Mash, Taxi, Cheers etc but the more modern ones leave me cold I'm afraid.

[douglas9401]

Curb Your Enthusiasm, Sh1t My Dad Says, Family Guy.

I love Modern Family - also Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Larry Sanders, Dream On, 30 Rock, US Office, Frasier and Two and A Half Men.

Kaz, I couldn't get into the US Office. I think Steve Carrel is funny but didn't quite click with me. If I'd seen it before our The Office, it might have been different

[Cowtipper]

I haven't seen a lot of these newer ones. There are some really interesting choices. I never would have considered Frasier to be a good one overseas but I guess its east coast cosmopolitan humor isn't that far off. Soap is one of my all time favorites. I own all the MASH and Family Guy episodes on DVD. A lot of my Aussie friends enjoyed "That 70s Show". It sounds like you get a lot more of our programming than we get of yours.

[karenmac60]

See Arti, I could never get into the UK version. I've worked in too many places like that :)
Oh, and I liked That 70's show too :)

COUGAR TOWN ... by ... a ... mile !!!!

[MarkRae]

Two and a Half Men

[mike11111]

Definitely Bilko for me, and even older than that, I Married Joan.

[anneasquith]

mike i didnt know you were married mike !

[RATTER15]

Nobody has mentioned "Friends" I like friends, I rarely watch TV to be honest.

" It sounds like you get a lot more of our programming than we get of yours. "

I think we do. My brother in NY is always raving about programs (like "Born to the Manor" , or " As Time Goes By") that haven't been new here in yonks.

I adored 'Married With Children' - any writer who starts with naming his family after a serial killer gets my vote - and Chrisitna Applegate's legs ... hubba!
