Shows that stupid people dont find funny

I know plenty of dumb people who love The Office and King of the Hill.

Futurama is incredibly clever and I think a lot of the jokes from that show would go over stupid people's heads.

If you drink and went to college you can easily relate to this show

Just because you can relate with a show doesnt meen you can completely get the humor

always sunny is a terrible example. no high brow humor to it really at all.

Arrested Development


Well, there are some parts that I'm sure some stupid people find funny, but there are other parts that are way over your normal moron's head.

Arrested Development is an interesting example. I'd actually say a lot of the humor is really silly-stupid type of humor but there some very witty parts as well. Either way it's a great show. I think more often shows/movies aren't for "smart" people or "stupid" people as much as they are for a specific generation, sex, or other demographic.

Better Off Ted
The IT crowd

Yeah, most of the Office fan club is dumb.

I wasn't thinking of this because I wouldn't consider any of Sorkin's shows pure comedies, but good call.

I like Sports Night, but actually don't think it's as funny as it is "enjoyable" just for the subject matter and idealistic optimism.

The West Wing is probably one of the funniest shows I've ever seen, though, and there are only brief moments of comic relief in the form of dry one-liners per episode. Along with the occasional bout of slapstick.
