I like watching good comedies, any suggestions down in the comments would be wonderful.

I have loved watching IT Crowd, Big Bang Theory, Seinfeld, It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia, Curb Your Enthusiasm, The King of Queens, Cunk of Earth, Cunk of Britain, pretty much all of Ricky Gervais, and more shows that I'm not recalling at the moment.

Edit: I've also watched Psych, The Good Place, B99, Black Books, Third Rock From The Sun, Parks and Rec, Superstore, and Silicon Valley

  • Ghosts (the US version)
  • Righteous Gemstones
  • Miracle Workers
  • Based on a true story
  • Blockbuster
  • The Great
  • The Goldbergs
  • Fresh Off the Boat
  • Killing It
  • Upload

Those are the ones that fall in and around the comedy genre that i recall enjoying in the last year...

If you're looking for some older UK centric ones

  • This Country
  • Inbetweeners
  • Two pints of lager
  • Fresh Meat
  • The Fast Show
  • Harry Enfield and Pals
  • My Family

If you liked IT Crowd and have a general interest in IT then check out Silicon Valley and it you like Chris O'Dowd in particular then check out "The Big Door Prize"

Another vote for Silicon Valley. Based on the list above, my guess is that this would be right up your alley!

Ghosts (the US version)

How can you say this, when that version doesn't have Charlotte Richie in it. Not even once!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Charlotte Richie i know.. i know.. but we do get Rose Mciver and i'm a big fan :)

But it's got Rose McIver in it and she's great (sidenote iZombie also let her show she's got a LOT of range)

I've already watched Silicon Valley, wonderful show. I will check out all your other suggestions

Took up your suggestion for The Goldbergs and it seems like a pretty good show. Thanks for the recommendation.
