Entourage is not a comedy program..


Ari Gold is the funniest character on TV right now, he's all the comedy the show needs.

Never been funny. Never been smart. Most overrated show in the history of shows.


You're obviously delirious. What do you consider funny and smart?

At the risk of sounding unpopular.

Scrubs is a pretty damn funny show.

King of the hill also has some great moments.

OK. Got your gloves all loose like?

South Park is 10 gazillion times funnier and cleverer and betterer than then The Pimpsons.

Let the lynching ensue.

i respect your opinion, but the little demon on my right shoulder is telling me "lynch... lynch!"

the first season of south park i liked, but they lost me after that (i think the Barbara Streisand as Godzilla one?). i didn't watch it for a very long time, but when i was back in the US last (Feb) i saw the episode where Cartman starts a Christian rock band and i nearly died laughing.

MST3K was oookayyy.. its true value lay in its name-droppability. "Oh you know MST3K!?" "Yeah, you know MST3K? It's so awesome!" And both people are instantly bonded because of it. Not many shows can do that.

Ah, fair enough. The Park and Simpsons were sharing the same pedestal in my mind - both are showing their age.

Lynching might be a bit strong. Can I chuck overripe fruit??

Not for a good few years I thought....

I like Family Guy, but after a while the constant "like that time when..." (cue flashback) grates a little bit with me. I actually think American Dad is pretty funny. And the American Office, while a perfectly good comedy show, will never match the English one for me.

entourage is pretty uninspired if you ask me.

South Park clever =X Simpsons NOT clever
Simpsons used to be clever but frankly, I haven't watched a "new" episode since the marijuana episode.

Curb is OFF the air? Bah!

The office....FUNNY

Trailer Park Boys (is there one more season?)

I'm still praying Arrested Development gets picked up by a network. I don't understand how it hasn't yet.

I didn't know Ali G was off the air.....a few friends of mine are all about the Borat charachter he does. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uFiSjiEb6Yg He's coming out with a movie in November.
