List of Sit-Com Series Ranked
Still filling this out, but yeah, instead of going outside in Albuquerque, watch these. I’m reading about a lot of series I haven’t seen, but a few of them I’ve watched ten times over. If they make me laugh, they get high marks. If there’s a memorable story line then they rank higher. If there’s too many rich white people with “problems,” I’m probably not gonna laugh. You can sort these by the columns.
| Rank | Name | Date | Comment |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Seinfeld | 1989-1998 | The undisputed best show of all time. Nothing comes close. |
| 2 | Schitt's Creek | 2015-2020 | Get past the first few episodes and it's fun. |
| 3 | Derry Girls | 2018-2022 | Super funny. Love it. This should not have ceased production even if the girls grew up. The family was half the fun. |
| 4 | The Big Bang Theory | 2007-2019 | This is on free TV every night at my house. Love it. |
| 5 | 30 Rock | 2006-2013 | This show hurts to watch and you have to pay attention, but it's hilarious if you do the work. |
| 6 | The Middle | 2009-2018 | This show gets left off lists all the time, but it's really good and Sue Heck is brilliant. |
| 7 | Frasier | 1993-2004 | I just rewatched this entire series and it's great. It's funny and delightful through the entire run. Too bad Kelsey Grammer has turned out to be a MAGA turd. |
| 8 | Shoresy | 2022- | This show gets better and better and weirdly Jared Keeso seems to be growing up after wasting years on Letterkenny. |
| 9 | The Office | 2005-2013 | Great up until the exit of Steve Carell. Then it was unwatchable. |
| 10 | Modern Family | 2009-2020 | Mostly good for a long run. I enjoyed the whole series. The first year was the best. |
| 11 | Two and a Half Men | 2003-2015 | This show has one joke. It's funny. Unless you hate the joke. It wears thin and there's no point in watching after Charlie's departure. Actually the last two seasons with Charlie were pretty bad too. |
| 12 | Resident Alien | 2021-2025 | The first season is great and then it descends into an abyss like a plane crash. |
| 13 | I Love Lucy | 1951-1957 | Seriously hilarious show. Lucy is the best. |
| 14 | Young Sheldon | 2017-2024 | I really enjoy this show. It's in perpetual re-runs, and I just like it. Gets a little wobbly toward the end of the run, but don't they all? |
| 15 | Everybody Loves Raymond | 1996-2005 | A rare case of a show getting better the longer it ran. |
| 17 | Life in Pieces | 2015-2019 | This show is weirdly uneven, and you eventually hate all the characters except Sophia, but it has hilarious moments. It was doomed from the outset being chopped up into 8 minutes pieces like it is. |
| 18 | M*A*S*H* | 1972-1983 | Uneven and dated, but still funny. |
| 19 | The Mary Tyler Moore Show | 1970-1977 | Mary Tyler Moore is hilarious. Dated stereotypes. |
| 20 | Taxi | 1978-1983 | It's been awhile, but this was funny with a great cast. |
| 21 | Arrested Development | 2003-2006 & 2013-2019 | Starts strong and then continuously tanks. |
| 22 | Cheers | 1982-1993 | It's fine, but some people rank this highly. I don't. |
| 23 | All in the Family | 1971-1979 | Maybe not as funny as it used to be, but ground-breaking work. |
| 24 | Letterkenny | 2016-2023 | I watched almost all of this and it never got any better. The characters were just stuck season after season. |
| 25 | How I Met Your Mother | 2005-2014 | Dreadful. |
| 26 | WKRP in Cincinnati | 1978-1982 | The chicken and the helicopter and Venus Flytrap. |
| 27 | The Andy Griffith Show | 1960-1968 | Iconic if maybe not as funny as you'd hope. |
| 28 | Fleabag | 2016-2019 | The reviews on this were way better than the show. It has its moments. |
| 29 | Will & Grace | 1998-2006 & 2017-2020 | Nope. Annoying. |
| 800 | South Park | 1997- | Cartoon. Maybe every 15th episode or so is epic. Otherwise it's just exhausting. |
| 801 | The Simpsons | 1989- | Cartoon. Used to watch. Well written. Can't imagine how it's still on. |
| 802 | Futurama | 1999-2003 & 2008-2013 | Cartoon. Tried it. Never laughed once. Quit. |
