re: What is your top 5 sitcoms of all time

Seinfeld..showing some age now, but still holds up due to universal ageless themes.

Curb Your Enthusiasm..modern..I'm getting old and in touch with my inner-Larry David.

Louie..was always a fan of his stand-up and viewed life on a similar wavelength, also same age as CK thus appreciate his takes.

Arrested Development..great writing..twisted..and a wonderfully sarcastic cast..I can't wait for Season 5.

Entourage..cheating imho to use a PPV channel series which can push boundaries further than mainstream, and a cheesy show with unrealistic budget at it's character's disposals, but plenty of twenty-something hijinks.


Just missed cut:

Always Sunny In Philly..sick characters and plots..great cast..am a lifelong Phanatic that appreciates it's usage of Philly

The League..never been a Fantasy guy, but love Football..hilarious cast.

Family Guy..Seth's so warped!..cartoon allowed him the vehicle to have unlimited vision..could damn near make top five just for Star Wars parody episodes, or Petarded and North by North Quahog.

Cheers..sometimes very hard to watch now, as it's very 1980s dated, but if you grew up then, it rates over even Friends for 1980's kids.

MASH..perfect Vietnam era and 1970s show set to the Korean conflict..bridged war and adult themes with warmth and humor..but not as good as the Altman film.

70s Show, HIMYM, South Park, SOAP, Dream On, Sanford and Son, Bob Newhart/Newhart Show, 30 Rock,etc..
