It's up there but only if you scrub the last horrible season or two.

I think that's a wee bit harsh on new girl it has some funny bits...even though zooey deschanel is intensely irritating.

Surprised so many people are saying big bang theory....I thought it was just me!

My top 3:

Community
Parks and Rec
The IT Crowd

Worst 3:

Big Bang Theory
Friends
Brooklyn Nine Nine (not as bad as the other two, but it’s alarmingly overrated by some)

Haven’t watched a lot of bad ones though tbf, if I don’t like anything in the first two or three episodes I’ll just give up on it usually.

NewRed2

BEST
Only Fools & Horses (by a huge distance)
In Betweeners
Taxi

WORST
Frasier (the door bell might ring.... Ding Dong - Oh Sweet jaysus!)
Blackadder
How I met your mother

[Deleted User]

Best - Only Fools and Horse, Fawlty Towers, Father Ted

Worst - Peep Show, IT Crowd, The Office

Better Than Christ

Best

Father Ted
I'm Alan Partridge

I can't pick a single third one. Ted and Partridge are miles ahead for me. Honourable mentions for The Thick of It, Peep Show, Friday Night Dinner, Toast of London, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Veep, Early Doors, Frasier.

Worst

The Big Bang Theory
Friends

Can't not include Mrs Brown's Boys and almost every sitcom ever commissioned by ITV or *shudders* RTE.

whisky_galore

Best
Only Fools & Horses (early series, before the WAGs and sprogs)
Blackadder.
Fr Ted (despite RTE repeatedly flogging the shyte out of it)

Honourable mentions, Allo Allo, Fawlty Towers, Red Dwarf. Alan P.

Worst
Every RTE "comedy" made with very few exceptions.
Most US sitcoms, esp Big Bang, current Simpsons, Cosby Show, even before the revelations.
Mrs Brown's Boys, successful, just not my cup of tea.

it's not liked enough to be on the worst lists! this thread is the same as these polls/lists always are, lots of the ones in the worst have pretty high viewing figures and many would talk about them or quote them, like Friends. So people want to take them down a peg or 2. Its more like top 3 best sitcoms, and 2 worst which you know loads of people watch and rate highly.

Its the same on IMDB check out the ratings on some films, load of 10 stars, many from fan boys, then a slow drop and then this ridiculous abnormal skyrocket in % of 1star reviews, from people abusing the system and not putting in their true vote, they are in effect stealing votes. If they think its 4/10 they put 1/10 to knock it down. Some even say it in their comments.

The true crap is stuff people do not even remember. My Hero with Ardal O Hanlan was brutal, checking there is amazing that it got 6 series.

A lot on the worst list I can tolerate if its on in the background, but certainly not something I would tune into see, like "how I met your mother", I can see the hate for it but I would have at least a few laughs per show.

Sam Hain

Best- Curb your enthusiasm, Rising Damp, Only fools and horses.
Worst-Everybody loves Raymond, How I met your mother, and worst of all without a shadow of doubt, Father Figure featuring that Jason Byrne prick.

How in the name of sweet suffering Jesus did that get commissioned for 6 seasons - it was the least funny thing I ever came across.

Goodnight Sweetheart

I was very young when this was on television - I remember googling it years later to be sure I hadn't imagined it; it was the strangest premise for a sitcom.
