Name Some Comedy Series To Watch!

[Rizen]

I'm looking for new comedy series to watch on Netflix or Amazon Prime. I've already seen a lot and like things like Cheers and the Big Bang Theory. Some other favorites include Frasier, That 70s Show, American Dad, 3rd Rock From the Sun and The Simpsons (seasons 3-9).

1. Father Ted ?

2. We really liked a Canadian show called Corner Gas. It helped us through last year.

4. Yes. I'll echo that. You can watch it free through Amazon Prime via IMDB with the occasional ad.

There is something rather amusingly simple and soothing about the show. I still watch episodes when I have had a rough day.

I also recommend Doc Martin.

3. Corner gas is good along

with Kim's Convenience. If you haven't seen Doc Martin that's good also.

5. Have you tried IT Crowd?

10. I was about to mention that British show too!

I went on a British comedy binge a few years ago, after asking some Brits online what they recommended, and that was my favorite! And it turned out to be one of the least-mentioned by the Brits, who apparently had a different sense of humor than me.

I even liked it more than Fawlty Towers.

11. when I saw that title

I thought to myself, there will be just one main female character and she won't be tech-savvy.....did I nail that or what

[Buckeye_Democrat]

13. Yeah, but she beat the guys with social etiquette...

... and being normal.

Well, "more normal" than them in general. Jen had her bizarre moments too.

The dinner party episode, with blind dates, was especially funny to me!

6. HBO Silicon Valley

having lived some of the situations in the show... it is both extremely funny and close to the truth

7. How "grown-up" are you looking for?

An amazing 'big-network' one to watch is "Arrested Development" - just SO funny in so many ways.

I'm now hooked on an "R" rated one (language) on Netflix - Loudermilk. CRAZY funny!

12. My wife loved Schitt's Creek

I’m trying to convince her to give Arrested Development a chance. I think it fits in the same niche.

8. Can't recommend The Venture Brothers highly enough!

I think it’s available on Prime right now.
It’s animated and fabulous, especially as you get into the 2nd season and beyond.

18. I absolutely loved "Alpha House"

It was about 4 Republican senators who share a house in D.C. One of the stars is John Goodman, Wanda Sykes plays their Democratic neighbor, Amy Sedaris pays one of the senator's wives and Rachel Maddow made an appearance later on in the series. I was hoping they'd film another season (there were 2 "seasons" ).

19. I enjoyed an Australian series called "Rake"

It starts out as kind of a Rumpole of the Bailey criminal law procedural, but it spirals away from that after a season or two. I liked it.

20. Mystery Science Theater 3000

I will always recommend it.

23. How about some absurdist fare?

'Stella' had me rolling around on the floor laughing (Landlord: "You guys can do whatever the hell you want to inside the apartment..." Next scene is the 3 guys sitting around a campfire - in the middle of the living room floor.)

'Childrens Hospital' might be another good choice. Megan Mullally is extremely talented!
