List of best comedy tv series on dvd


I'm just finishing the last season of Seinfeld, and I'm at a loss as to what I'm going to choose next? Any ideas?

Frasier
Northern Exposure

Frasier. Nothing comes close.

The Office (US 2005-2013 9 Seasons) Steve Carrel is perfect as The Office Manager . It is not as cutting as the British Office (UK 2001-2003 2 Seasons 2 Specials) - Ricky Gervais along with John Cleese and Dylan Moran are the world's best unpleasant leads .

Black Books (UK 2000-2004 3 Seasons) based around an alcoholic Bookstore owner in Britain .

It's Garry Shandling's Show (1986-1990 4 Seasons) - too dry and slow for some !

King of Queens (1998-2007 9 Seasons)

And of course , Friends (1994-2004 10 Seasons)
and spinoff , Joey (2004-2006 2 Seasons)

if you liked Seinfeld, i think the humor of "Arrested Development (2003)" or "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia (2005)" should make you laugh.

I second the recommendations of "Frasier" and "Black Books". I don't know if the following titles are available on DVD, but you may want to check them out:

- "Parks And Recreation" (2009)
- "Perfect Strangers" (1986) starring Mark Linn-Baker and Bronson Pinchot
- "Chef!" (1993) starring Lenny Henry
- "Doc Martin" (2004) starring Martin Clunes - not seen myself
- "My Family" (2000) starring Robert Lindsay and Zoe Wanamaker
- "Becker" (1998) starring Ted Danson
- "Murphy Brown" (1988) starring Candice Bergen
- "3rd Rock From The Sun" (1996)
- "Just Shoot Me!" (1997) - maybe
- "NewsRadio" (1995)
- "Cupid" (1998) starring Paula Marshall and Jeremy Piven - maybe
- "The Thin Blue Line" (1995) starring Rowan Atkinson

Thanks! I'm going to try Arrested Development. I've seen just about all the others on your list majoofi. AR sounds great to me.

I really enjoyed a full rewatch of Seinfeld a few years ago.

My favorites are:

The Office (USA version)
30 Rock
Barney Miller (early seasons are the best)
Community
Last Man on Earth
Andy Richter Controls the Universe
Don't Trust the B____ in Apt 23


Lots of people enjoyed these:

Friends
Family Ties



If you'd like to watch a couple of very odd ones, try:

ALF
Perfect Strangers
