How is the Big Bang Theory?

I heard there are more viewers every year, but the runtime is 17 minutes per episode.

Also, how is Frasier? I don't think anyone mentioned it.


I will look into Louie.
BBT is nerd-pandering, lowest common denominator crap. Frasier is one of the very best sitcoms of the 90s.

The main answer is Arrested Development.

Bob's Burgers and Parks and Rec are really good since you like the Office and animated stuff.

I'm also keen to Frasier. It rounds out my top 3 favorite shows after Seinfeld and AD.
 
I just finished watching Season 1 of Parks and Recreation and my god, Leslie Knope is an idiot! It's like watching a female version of Michael Scott. Sometimes Leslie, like Michael, is too embarrassing to watch. It makes me wonder if her character has a brain. Are there going to be more Michael Scott moments, like the time when he ruined Philip's party or Scott's Tots?

She gets way better. Season 1 is pretty rough, especially for Leslie's character.

Season 1 copied The Office formula way too closely. You'll soon come to realise that Leslie is not really anything like Michael - she's competent at her job.

They tried too hard in S1 to make her like Michael Scott. Her character gets much better starting with S2.
 
Whose Line Is It Anyways. But watching this may be difficult, I haven't seen reruns on tv in a while, might have to stick to Youtube or something.
Friends.

Recently started watching 30 Rock and I regret not having started earlier. Smart, funny, and just plain good TV.

Whose Line Is It Anyways might just have some of the funniest TV moments of all time.

The Eric Andre Show
Nathan For You
Cromartie High School (especially the English dub)

No show has made me laugh as hard as these three. They're probably my all time favorites.
