You have to watch Breaking Bad.. (I watch it on netflix)

+1 must see

Sorry....I only watch prime time cartoons!!!!! (And breaking bad);)

Do you want current sitcom recommendations or classics as well. I'm not sure why non-sitcoms are getting into this thread.

I used to like Babylon 5.

Oh, sorry. Sci-fi and no longer on TV. My bad.

Victory By Design was really good.

"Can you recommend a good sit com?"........... breaking bad and babylon 5?

A bit of a hijack but.
This was the best car show ever, in my mind. greatest cars, great settings, true sound of the cars under way. Filmed beautifully! outstanding!
I wish that Allan DeCadeny would do a series on the many classic rallies going on in Europe, and follow along connecting with the folks and cars doing the rally.

I am nearing the last few episodes of my three-month long journey of watching every episode of all 11 seasons of Frasier.

A modern classic, and more refined that Cheers IMO.

You might want to give Castle a try. It is crime solving with a funny approach. My wife an I just finished watching the first 5 and really enjoyed it.

We have also liked CSI Miami and 24.

Curb Your Enthusiasm

IMHO

Big Bang Theory
Rules of engagement

oldies:
Mash
Cheers
Frasier
Barney Miller
Night Court

Shows that really suck:
Modern Family
Mike & Molly

For a somewhat whimsical crime show that is great:
Castle

I'll throw in some older ones:

Comedy:

Coupling (the BBC version!!!)

Are You Being Served? (and do follow with Grace and Favour)

S.O.A.P.

Fawlty Towers

The Black Adder (all series)


Drama:

Rumpole of The Bailey

Poirot

The Avengers

Wire in the Blood

Space 1999

Monarch of the Glenn

I recommend pelican parts OT, and PARF. The 928 technical section has had some good episodes to.

Back in the day Taxi was my favorite.

Yes!

Riiiight. Probably the funniest, best-written sitcom on TV right now. IMHO, of course. I've got to believe you haven't given the show much of a chance.

Orange is the new black
Sons of anarchy

All on netflix.

Big Bang is super funny, well written, the lady is super easy to look at and, my wife is a big fan...

But...

I work at a science museum... it reminds me WAY too much about my workplace... and Sheldon is my boss... imagine working for Sheldon. :mad:

Victory by design IS a great show... when it first came out I DVR'er every episode and watched them... wife is not a car nut and not sure I could get her to curl up on the couch after dinner and watch it (same with top gear).

Trying to get away from violent shoot-um-ups so sons of anarchy is out (I watched a few episodes by myself) breaking bad looks pretty violent too.

I'm considering Mike and Molly, the previews I have caught look funny.

I'm also a huge Poirot fan (did you see they just filmed the very last episode?) but I am trying to find something other than murder mystery (the actor did a cool documentary on the Orient Express that I just watched)

I have a bunch of "through the wormhole" DVR'ed too... but also not light wife friendly viewing.

We do watch Frasier some times... always good.

I was a big MASH fan back in the day... but tried it recently and it seems flat... I love Alan Alda but Hawkeye comes off as a constantly pissed off condescending jerk.

YMMV
