It's been a while since I've gotten into a new comedy series, so I was wondering what lesser-known shows you guys were into.Here's what I've seen and liked, including animated stuff. It's a long list, but it saves us from "Seen it" posts.
LIVE ACTION: Arrested Development (all-time favorite) - Mr. Show - Always Sunny - The Office (UK and US) - Community - Seinfeld - Curb - Parks & Rec - Friends - Scrubs - Little Britain - The Young Ones - The League - The State - UCB - 30 Rock
ANIMATED: Simpsons - South Park - Frisky Dingo - Sealab - Home Movies - Life & Times of Tim - Archer - Bob's Burgers - Family Guy - Futurama - ATHF - MLP:FiM - Tom Goes To The Mayor - Metalocalypse - Birdman - Clone High
I've seen a lot of shows, but I'm sure you guys have a few good ones I'm not aware of. And by the way, if anyone hasn't seen any of the shows listed above, I definitely advise doing so.

Only Fools And Horses but i suspect you have already seen that show but worth a view if you haven't another good UK comedy is 2 pints of lager and a packet of crisps.

Really appreciate these so far, fellas. Looks like a lot of British stuff, which I've always been half-and-half on. There's been a few shows I've loved to death, and a few I just couldn't get into, like Fawlty Towers for example. I'm going to check out pilots for what you guys have given me so far. I'm bound to fall in love with something.

Peep Show, How I Met Your Mother, Big Bang Theory, Two & A Half Men I actually can't stand How I Met Your Mother... I love Neil Patrick Harris on it, but I'm just not a fan of the writing. I also haven't been impressed with what I've seen of Big Bang or 2.5 Men. I do appreciate the help though, and I will look into Peep Show.

Can't believe I forgot about Party Down. It's brilliant.
I'm going to save this entire thread and keep it for the next few months while I go through some of this... Thanks, everybody.
