Howie Spankowitz: I have tried and tried to like Parks and Rec. I love Amy Poehler, I worked for years for a city rec department and I do consulting work on a giant parks project now, so I was excited about it. I find myself trying to force out laughter, so I've stopped watching it.

The first season was pretty bad. I also wanted to like it, but quit watching it after a couple episodes. I was a a friends house for the season premier this season and I enjoyed it. I've been watching this season and I think it's head and shoulders above last season. If you haven't watched it since then, it might be worth a second look.

Modern Family requests that you damn kids get off their lawn.

I liked it the first time...when it was called "The Office".

THIS

For my money Curb is the funniest show this year.
Honourable mention goes to Sunny.

The Office and South Park have each had a couple really great episdoes, but they can't compare to Debbie wheelchair and kitten mittens.

30 Rock is getting old fast and Big Bang Theory is going to lose me pretty quick if it doesn't tone down the laugh track

1. Modern Family
2. Big Bang Theory
3. It's Always Sunny in Philly
4. 30 Rock
5. The Office (this season has been the weakest, but I expect it'll pick up)
6. Community

I'm leaving off Curb Your Enthusiasm because it's HBO, otherwise it'd be #1 or 2.

I gave up on P&R after season 1. Maybe I'll give it another shot.

I need to DVR The League, I keep missing it.

I really tried to like Parks and Rec because I was desperate for ANYTHING to replace Kath and Kim.

I just can't stand Amy Poehler. While everyone else on the show is playing a character, she can't stop acting like an SNL caricature. It drives me nuts because the rest of the cast is pretty funny.

Conversely, I thought I would hate Community, but I am totally hooked. Besides the lame chicle unrequited love storyline between the two leads, this show is making me laugh every week. Chevy is hitting them out of the park on a regular basis. Last weeks Halloween episode was a classic.

BATMAN!

I can't access it at work right now, but that site was down last night. They have a Facebook page with lots of pictures if you're interested.

Last night I figured out what a lot of people's Christmas presents are going to be this year.

AdolfOliverPanties: Besides The Office, there is Parks & Rec, Modern Family and probably some more I can't think of. I doubt Ricky Gervais Gary Shandling knew he was influencing an entire generation of comedy when he created The Office The Larry Sanders Show back in 2001 1992.

FTFY

wiredmaverick:

30 Rock is getting old fast
Agreed that is not as solid as the first 2 seasons, but it's still damn funny.

Big Bang Theory is going to lose me pretty quick if it doesn't tone down the laugh track
I too hate the laugh track, but I'm usually laughing over top of it anyway because that show is hilarious.

Ooooh so close. I'm sorry the answer we were looking for was Modern Family.

If there was any debate as to the funniest show on TV this year, last night ended the speculation: Parks and Recreation has emerged in its second season as the best comedy on the air

This is funny, because I was watching it last night waiting for The Office (funnier show) to come on, and was amazed at just how inane, boring and unfunny the show was.

Also, It's Always Sunny in Philly is unequivocally the funniest show on tv this year, and if you disagree, you are a moron and should be thrown into a pit of molten lava.

ToxicMunkee: As an Amy Poehler fan I'm glad the show is finding itself. Community is also doing better faster than I expected.

Ron running out of the library with a push-pin in his forehead is still making me laugh.

Amy Poehler is the poor man's Tina Fey. She has been riding Tina's coattails her entire career. I saw the promos for Parks and Recreation and thought "Here we go again. Amy wants to make her version of 30 Rock." I haven't watched a single episode of it.

Kitten mittens! (new window)

/too big to post

Taco's birthday song on the first episode of The League - funny, funny shiat.

I watched the league for the first time last night, pretty funny.

Also, "It was like doing peyote and sneezing slowly for six hours" was probably the funniest thing I heard on TV last night.
