    Funny shows no longer on TV?

    I'm talking nowhere to be found on TV. Any suggestions? I recently got the Norm Show and Lucky Louie on DVD. Done with Norm, almost done with Louie. Looking for something else I haven't seen in years or haven't seen at all.

    Someone suggested Greg the Bunny. I've never seen it. Any thoughts on it?

    Being a huge Norm fan I should probably give A Minute With Stan Hooper a try but I think I remember that show being really bad but don't know for sure. Anyone like it?

    I'd recommend The IT Crowd if you dig British humour.

    No, I hate British shows. Only because I can't understand what they're saying.

    Greg The Bunny was funny. I liked News Radio when Phil Hartman was still on the show. After his death, it wasn't quite as good with Jon Lovitz - but still funny.

    Newsradio is great. But it's on TV multiple times daily and I DVR it. I went through the series like 4 times in a row before I finally needed a break from it.

    Good suggestion. I remember finding some of this funny years ago. I'm gonna check out some clips online to see if I still like this humor.

    In Living Colour was good. MAD TV was ok. You can get old Saturday Night Live episodes. I loved Archie Bunker, if you want to go that far back. The Carol Burnett show had funny stuff in it too.

    I was thinking about some old SNL

    Pass on Archie Bunker and Carol Burnett. I never found anything from that time frame all that funny.

    I'm REALLY enjoying Modern Family ... definitely my favorite show right now.
    And by the way, AD was and still is one of my favorite shows of all time.

    Check out Modern Family ... start from season 1, they are in season 2 right now.

    Seen them all and it's still on TV daily. Usually catch a couple episodes a week.

    Thanks. It's only like $10. I think I might get it.

    Definitely one of the best shows on TV. I've seen them all and still have most on the DVR. Probably going to watch them all again after the season ends. And AD was a masterpiece. Nothing will ever touch it.

    Married With Children, The Dave Chappelle Show, Alf, Saved By The Bell, Friends. All those shows should be back on the air.

    Married with Children was funny if you didn't mind some crassness. Cheers was very good.
