    I've seen a s--- load of funny shows, Trailer Park Boys has been a favorite of mine since like, grade 3, love Always Sunny, workaholics has some classics, the office, the simpsons, both fantastic shows, but the only show I've ever seen that I really have not been able to keep myself from loling at when I'm watching, like even if I'm really trying to keep quiet, is the Ricky Gervais show

    is there anything funnier?

    Really depends on your taste.. personally I'd say:

    Frasier
    Seinfeld
    Married With Children
    The Office

    All 4 funny for different reasons though

    nah definitely not up there with ricky gervais i could watch any single episode of southpark without even cracking a smile despite finding it funny
    worthy of mention in the OP but i can get thru any seinfeld episode without loling if i'm trying

    Well let's start with curb your enthusiasm, that's the worst comedy. Now that that's out of the way, I'm gonna have to say Top 5 in no order

    trailer Park boys
    Workaholics
    It's always sunny in Philly
    Fat pizza/Swift and shift couriers
    Drawn together (feel like I forgot a show, but wanted to mention this one, had some goat Ling Ling racist Asian jokes)

    tried watching it in highschool, thought it was a less funny Seinfeld but at the same time i thought it might be something i "get" when i'm older so i put it on hold, still never got around to watching it again
    all great, mentioned in OP, none of them really make me burst out LOLing though like ricky's show
    no idea what this means/what it is
    explain :thinkinghmmm:
    meh watched a few episodes in like 200-whatever it was, thought it was lame but im pretty sure i was a preteen at the time so idk

    another show i watched back to front, (minus when it was brought back for netflix, still havent watched that yet)
    thought it was funny but still ehhh not burst out laughing uncontrollably funny
    never heard of it, link to funny moments/best episode?

    still need to get into this, never did sit down and watch a full season, or probably even a full episode other than catching it on comedy central as a kid :thinkinghmmm: could be a serious contender tho the way it's constantly bigged up

    like, this comes on and i just can't f---ing control myself


    "what do you mean, 'rifles'?"
    "it's sort of on a strap n that"
    "WHAT DO YOU MEAN IT'S ON A STRAP?"

    i just cant help it, it could be 4:30 am with armed burglars in my house scoping out to take out any witnesses and that could play and i'd just burst out laughing

    and that's probably not even the funniest episode

    Bogan Aussie show that was on air in the mid-2000s. It's like low brow as but still gave me some laughs as a kid.
    d--- I still love AD even on rewatches. Just a rewarding show imo.





    Very situational and internal monologue driven. So awkward and funny. Sometimes even relatable.
    Some jokes might be dated but it's still edgy and hilarious.

    You'll love Peep Show imo. 9 seasons worth for 54 episodes.

    The quality stay consistent for the majority of the series.

    i've enjoyed
    Curb Your Enthusiasm
    Seinfeld
    The Office
    Archer
    Fresh Prince of Bel Air.

    I know there's going to be a ton more I'll think of but those have been good.

    The Mindy Project isn't too bad with Morgan mostly being the bright spot for it. I thought The Big b--- was great the first 3 seasons but then 4 and 5 were kind of meh, haven't paid attention to it since. But I think it's the new thing to hate now a days?

    EDIT: Trailer Park Boys is hilarious for sure. I loved it but I think it ended at season 7 before. I tried catching up on it for Season 8 but there was just too many f bombs from Ricky. I can handle the swearing don't get me wrong but it was a bit overboard in the one episode I was watching. I might have to give it another shot. But yeah Trailer Park Boys is classic.

    "The way she goes? The Way she f---ing goes Ray!?" or Randy Bobandy pulling off his pants to fight wtf lol.

    I see what you mean but its genuinely one of the most consitently emjoyable shows oat imo. I've never had a show come close for replay value but those points more fall under the best shows oat argument rather than the funniest i guess
