There are other funny TV shows out there, but not in the same way as Seinfeld.

Seinfeld,
Still a classic? Hell yes!

Last fresh breath of comedy?

My top three would be

1. Seinfeld
2. Curb Your Enthusiasm
3. Arrested Development

Arrested development would probably have become number one if there would have been more seasons.

Seinfeld along with Friends, while good shows, are the two most overrated sitcoms of all time. For a show to be truly great, it has two work on more than one level. MASH, All In the Family, The Simpsons do, Seinfeld doesnt.

The Simpsons. Especially the first ten seasons. Maybe not the first season. Seinfeld looks quite dated now. Even when it was running new episodes I got the feeling that at times they were having the same conversation just in different episodes with different story lines. Seinfled had more than its fair share of classic moments though.

I like the Simpsons (yeah early seasons), curb your enthusiasm, what I managed to see of arrested development. Best Simpsons is season 3 through 6 or 7 maybe.

I liked Seinfeld for George and Kramer. Very funny characters, especially George (Worlds collide Jerry! World's collide! or I'm bald, unemployed, and I live with my parents! ). But Seinfeld himself had such an ego, and Elaine was just so so.

Cheers and Mash in their best seasons were funny. Gary Shandling's show on HBO (I forget the title, where he was the talk show host) was good.

Still, overall the Simpsons would be my choice. Homer: "Give me the number for 911!"

That Gary Shandling show was "The Larry Sanders Show" Awesome. So funny and really the first of the new breed of comedies.

I guess this might keep this thread from being off topic and eventually deleted by mods:

That episode where Elaine goes to the Korean nail salon was funny, but did you know they weren't Korean? At least that's what my gfriend at the time said.

..I tried... Neutral
