Television What's the funniest TV show of all-time?

I’ve never seen more than a few episodes of everyone loves Raymond and Kramer. But my uncle would watch these when I lived there and he would howl and I’d chuckle from the other room. For that reason, they are my favourites.
 
Most consistent and best writing
____________________________
Scrubs and Everyone Loves Raymond - both did comedy and drama very well. Incredible writers.

The rest
_______________
The Office - the writing is uneven but picks up after the first season. Has a lot of really good episodes mixed in.
It's Always Sunny - I would go higher but it has some really uneven episodes.
Aqua Teen Hunger Force - first few season crack so hard
Upright Citizens Brigade - awesome show that got its timeslot fucked around with. Amy Phoeler got her start here
Married with Children - this show was so good as parody but I don't know if it was taken as such
South Park - Some incredibly clever episodes over the years
Simpsons - pretty iconic. Kind of set the bar for cartoons.
Rick and Morty - I know people will cringe at this because it has become a meme but the first few seasons bang so hard.
Eastbound and Down - everyone should watch this at least once
Curb Your Enthusiasm - everything that Seinfeld should have been
Kids in the Hall - my favorite sketch comedy. They were on point all the way until they got picked up by CBS.
Community - some incredibly well written episodes
Always Sunny - some perfect episodes with some uneven misses. Every one has atleast a few laughs

Honor List
___________________
The Critic - love every episode
Futurama - very good but uneven
Avenue 5 - the writers on this show are doing an amazing job
Malcom in the Middle - everytime I go back and watch an episode of this, I am impressed with the writing
 
Love Seinfeld.
Love The Office.
Curb has a lot of genius moments.
The League for me is #2.
#1 All Time... Always Sunny. They go places other shows just can't.





 
Can't believe nobody said "All in the family"

Married with children.

Seasons 1-8 of always sunny

Fawlty Towers was hilarious too, along with with Flying circus.
 
1) Arrested Development (seasons 1 - 3) is pure genius and unmatched
2) Seinfeld
3) Simpsons (1990s)
4) The Office
5) It's Always Sunny
6) Chappelle Show
7) Curb Your Enthusiasm
8) Futurama
9) Cheers
10) Veep
11) Silicon Valley
12) Aqua Teen Hunger Force
13) The League
14) Space Ghost

Shows that folks put up there I'm not a fan of: Raymond, Scrubs, Martin, Married with Children (of all the shows I'm not a fan of... I don't mind it), Two and a Half Men, Friends, and How I Met Your Mother.
