The Top Ten Funniest Shows Part Two

Tuesday, November 25th, 2008

Back in February I posted my list of the Top Ten Funniest Shows. Being the odd humor blog that Angry Seafood is, I only listed five shows. Here are the others.

1. Married with Children

Al Bundy was the 90’s version of Archie Bunker. Most impressive is how tough it was compared to the 1970’s to be politically incorrect.

3. All in the Family

(Video link for feed readers)

The king of political incorrectness has to be Archie Bunker. This show took the question “Do people on television go to the bathroom?” and turned it into a running gag along with offending pretty much every group, race, affiliation, etc. on the planet.

4. News Radio

I never understood why this one never caught on with the mainstream. I think it is like Wings, a good show with a good cast that didn’t fit into the Everybody Loves Raymond sitcom mold.

6. Kids in the Hall

(Video link for feed readers)

Probably the weirdest one of the bunch, that’s for sure. The odd thing about this strange series was how hit or miss the sketches were. They were either really good or uncomfortable.

9. Newhart (Second series)

(Video link for feed readers)

Unfortunately he’s relegated to second banana status in the Legally Blond franchise these days which is a shame. Bob Newhart truly is one of the funniest comedians of all time.

His style was always sort-of back seat in all his shows and in this series he was always the one outside the group who you watched and listened to for his reaction to the situation.

He has one of the best series-ending scenes ever where the show went back to the first Newhart series, the second one all being a bad dream.

Let the debating begin…
