this is a really REALLY tough one for me.
right now i'd say its got to be 'breaking bad' (havent seen the wire yet) but firefly and deadwood rank right near the top for me as well.
by most entertaining..i mean a series that is TOP NOTCH and not a single bad episode. you could sit down in front of *ANY* episode from the series and not feel a drop in entertainment.
BSG has lots of 'filler' so i dont consider it to be a contender. same with trailerpark boys..some epic moments but some god-awful episodes as well.
i know seinfeld will get alot of votes, but i think there have been more entertaining shows since that.

Most fun and not a single bad episode for me would be Arrested Development in the last 15 years.

For both of these.

Kidding, but yeah I wouldn't say BSG is "fun."
Clearly it will be a show with a short to semi-short run and one who was able to keep the momentum going.
1. Arrested Development
2. Sports Night

Saved by the Bell
but in all seriousness, either Modern Family, the Office or Family Guy

South Park is prolly my #1, especially with the parameter of the last 15 years in place.
I have a feeling that AD, whenever I get around to watching it, will be up there for me.
The Office is up there for me, but I think mainly because I came into it in season 4 (Dinner Party was the first episode I saw, and it was awesome). So I basically bought the seasons up to that point, and watched them all within about a week.
Psych is also up there for me. There are very few misses on that show, and it cracks me up a ton.

By this definition I would say the Sopranos and the West Wing.

I wouldn't consider Breaking Bad, The Wire, or BSG "fun"
I'd probably have to go with Scrubs.

are you kidding?? BB is seven kinds of fun. BETTER CALL SAUL
the mexicans playing a eulogy for heisenberg?

BB just kills me. its funny in the same way deadwood is.

For fun? I'm going with Psych. It's not the best show, but its always a hoot.

That isn't really a great standard for most entertaining as it really just a matter of picking shows that don't have a bad episode or two, which pretty much every show has with the exception of shows with really short runs have or great shows that are completely serialized to the point that individual episodes barely matter (i.e. The Wire and Breaking Bad).
Also, how can anyone say South Park based on that standard? Terrance and Phillip, Oprah, and others really sucked.

It's a toss up between these two.
I'm surprised no one said Lost yet.

Breaking Bad, South Park, The Office, Parks and Recreation...all extremely fun
I'd mention The Shield...had me on the edge of my seat and yearning for more the whole time.

Psych is the best IMO.
Sons and Daughters is the best one-season show I've seen.
