What is the best sitcom ever? (Seinfeld)

Compared to Seinfeld? BLASPHEMY!! It's definitly top 10 in my book though.

Actually they play it on Nick at Nite all the time. I personally never enjoyed it all that much, but I respect its place in the history of sitcoms.

it seems like everybody has seinfeld on the radar at least somewhere. I would vote for seinfeld, it was definitely the funniest show I have seen but That 70's show ranks up there too.

I like M*A*S*H as well, very much. I think it's more of the same thing. Hawkeye and trapper/BJ making pranks. I understand the weight of the circumstance since it was during the Korean War. That's a small part that makes it not funny.

I still watch Seinfeld every night, and it still makes me LMAO frequently. I can't think of another show that I could watch every episode a dozen times and still laugh out loud by the twelfth time. It really says something for the genius of the writers who worked on that show. The awesome writing coupled with characters we all came to know and love was their secret formula.

"The Red Dot" was on recently. I rewound (well, "instant replayed" it--I have a ReplayTV) the part where the cleaning lady tells George about her childhood in Panama and how she asked a wealthy American visitor what his beautiful sweater was made of (Cashmere.... Cashmere!!) and how she asked him if she could have it and he said "No.... get away from me". I'm laughing about it just typing it.

"BUT I DIDN'T WANT THE CHANGE, GEORGIE! I WANTED... THE CASHMERE!"

Hope someone else knows the scene I'm talking about

Roseanne was also a very funny one.. It had some good writing. Ever see the episode where they're playing bingo?

I also like Seinfeld, and liked MASH back in the day (but it got a bit too serious towards the end; the episode where Hawkeye's limbs turned into mannequin limbs and fell off was downright creepy)

Becker is quite good, but it isn't in the same class. 3rd Rock? Frazier? Crap, in my opinion..

Simpsons used to be really good, now-a-days it just plain sucks. Family Guy and Futurama are both ALOT better than Simpsons!
