Curb?
Seinfeld?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Curbs is on my list to see. Seinfeld I haven’t seen in years, and didn’t really give it much of a chance at the time. I’ll revisit that
Take Succession, American made but written by an Englishman with a mix of nationalities with the cast.
Melton
Obviously they have their cultural differences but to dismiss American comedy which I feel a lot of people do is a big waste.
Classic Simpsons (around seasons 4-11) was peak comedy.
Baz
Curb is the best, only my opinion obviously but you should at least check it out.

Completely agree.
Agree on the Simpsons, top notch at its peak.
Yeah early Simpsons is brilliant. Last 25 years or so it’s been unwatchable.

Oh I will. Succession I wouldn’t really class as a comedy, but it’s sublimely written and does have some absolutely top notch comedy in it. There was a couple of bits I was in uncontrollable stitches at, it was a highest caliber tv series.

Animation was poor though, well scripted none the less.
Old Simpson was way better drawn, it had so much more personality.
Best for me
Fawlty Towers
Black Adder
Only Fools and Horses
Steptoe and Son
Last of the Summer Wine
Best American one I can think of was Cheers.
Season 3 (or after they started using Korean animation) to about Season 14 was its prime.
Minder was brilliant once it became regarded as a comedy.

Bottom > Young Ones
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yep, although I thought Bottom turned rubbish by the third series.
Family Guy must be up there as one of the most overrated shows also. Pale imitation of Simpsons with cheap animation and jokes.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I've hardly ever laughed at Family Guy. Like you say, it's just trying to be The Simpsons but more outrageous.
Bottom is fabulous though
On the OP: yes, Fawlty Towers is sometimes too contrived but the best moments - and there are many - are wonderful.
Got bored with Family Guy quite quickly but still like American Dad.
My favs;
Curb
Sendield
Partridge
