    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!

    Do yourself a favor and watch The Sopranos if you haven't already. I had never seen a full episode until this past summer and went out and ended up buying all seven of the box sets by the end of the year. By far, the show is now my favorite TV show of all time -- right up there with Seinfeld.

    i'm genuinely obsessed with Top Gear.. i find it hilarious and entertaining.. i'm not even into cars that much, but the show is funny as fcuk
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    The only one I saw was with Gordon Ramsay. It was pretty entertaining and I couldn't careless about cars. Maybe I'll have to watch a few more episodes.

    I second The Sopranos. If you want to save some dough, try NetFlix (or something similar) if you aren't already. That makes it easy to watch TV series DVD's without having to buy them or go to the rental store every couple days. I've only bought three movies that I've watched more than once (Godfather 1-3), so renting is the way to go for me.
