    Does it have to be a comedy?

    If not, the tv show Dexter is really good. I know season 1 is out on DVD. But it is about as far from a comedy that you can get.
  • pjtaperpjtaper Posts: 3,020
    yeah, I was goign to start watching Dexter. I watched the first 3 or four episodes, it was DAMN GOOD!

    I'm not sure if you can get this on DVD yet, but Californication with David Duchovny is really good.

    Lots of sex and wicked good dialog in the writing.

    I didn't think Extras was that funny... Curb is AMAZING!

    I'm told Back to You is pretty hilarious.
    Can't go wrong with Kelsey Grammer.

    I have only seen one ep and it was funny. Its on at the same time as my show Criminal Minds. Wednesday 9pm. est.

    I look at humor in a few different ways. CYE, to me, is a more jarring, gut busting laughter type show. While Extras may not have as many of the "laugh out loud" moments that CYE does, it is so well written that it is hard to deny just how amusing it is (to me at least). Did you see the episode with Sir Ian McKellan? Amazing!

    You have to give it a try!! It and Fawlty Towers are my two favorite sitcoms of all time. It's just that good!
