And Friends is funnier and should have been third or higher.

And he said no it was perfect we said all we had to say there ain't no more. Well he didn't say there ain't no more. And it takes a lot of integrity to leave it in a perfect time capsule. And because every sitcom wants to come back and wrap it up. Case in point the Friends reunion thing. I'm sorry I'm not a friend's fan. And it spoiled everything.

For two straight hours one night, and I still laugh every time I don't care how many times Kramer comes through the door in a ridiculous way. I don't care how many times Jerry finds fault with his current girlfriend. I don't care how many times George goes on about his insecurities and his parents.

Arrested Development - it was clever, smart, & funny. if not for certain circumstances I honestly think they'd still be making this show. 👨🏿‍💻

[@lennymccartney1]

the title should have been "top 30 greatest AMERICAN sitcoms of all time".

[@JohnSmith-zw8vp]

Only two B&W shows...it's nowhere near "of all time" either.

[@danniaction]

Well that title would have been a lie then.. they're not all American

[@owatagi]

You’re dead wrong. The Andy Griffith Show, number one.

[@rolltroll9237]

Always sunny should be top 10

[@necrophagiakc]

You said "culture significant" and left out The Cosby Show and The Honeymooners and its cartoon version The Flintstones which was the first adult tinged cartoon not just for kids...

[@KyleWillLivingston]

Friends is the best.

[@mazedaartist5691]

Barely laughed during season 6.

[@yasser3268]

Are they THAT Lazy to change it up the list of top 30? The at the top 20 spots are literally the same as the top 20 video but with added extra 10 above it to make it top 30 HOW LAZY ARE THEY TO CHANGE THEIR MINDS??? Mind you that “Friends” is still on Number 7 like in the original top 20 video where no one agreed

[@zedlavb]

Not sure how Sanford and Son and Dick van Dyke don't get on here, but a middling show propped up by a laugh track (Big Bang) does

[@sabrinah.8141]

Thanks for including Community, but the fact that Malcolm in the middle and Brooklyn 99 are missing is a travesty!

[@Venusandjupiteinunion6434]

I can think of 20 shows that are funnier.

[@jamaalhooks8256]

2:30 Now the T-Mobile ads are even funnier

[@TheBaltimoreMovieTrailerPark]

I was going to ask why The Cosby Show was not on the list…but then I remembered why it wasn’t on the list. Some of you must’ve forgotten.

[@Xayjohns]

That has nothing to do with the quality of the show itself.

[@edwardedward4887]

Seinfeld better be n1

[@Venusandjupiteinunion6434]

Or what?? Just kidding 😅

[@rubygracemoseley8144]

My little sister and I were first introduced to The Andy Griffith Show a little over a decade ago by our mom. We would’ve been…probably 6 and 8 or 7 and 9 the first time our mom showed us the show. We haven’t watched it in a lon time but we absolutely loved it during our childhood ❤️

[@mazedaartist5691]

You guys in the comments need to stop expecting the Cosby show to be honoured. Do you not know what r*pe is???

[@ddburdette]

Bewitched? Barney Miller? The Honeymooners?

[@skywalker39100]

Married with Children!

[@IceTTom]

Home Improvement, Family Matters and Full House Didn't even show up?! My 90s jams ❤️

[@jukeboxjunkie1000]

American sitcoms* Blackadder, Only Fools and Horses, Father Ted, Still Game.. all should be in there, and arguably the first three should be in the top 10 of all time.

[@danniaction]

I get you're where you're going. There's a lot of English shows that should be on this list, but you should research before you comment. They're not all American.

[@dminalba]

Three’s Company is a remake of the British ITV network (made by London weekday franchise Thames) sitcom Man About The House, there was 2 spin off sequels George & Mildred (remade as The Ropers) and Robin’s Nest (Remade as Three’s A Crowd). Richard O’Sullivan who played Robin even composed the theme song to Robin’s Nest. All In The Family was also a remake of BBC sitcom Till Death Do Us Part. One interesting fact about Till Death Do Us Part the son in law Mike was played by Anthony Booth who was father of Cherie Blair wife of former British Prime Minister Tony Blair.

[@namo9690]

HIMYM was not a "botched ending" people dont want to admit that life is not " happy go lucky and things work out" because we were traditionalized to the modern sitcom. It was real raw and sad. And thats life it doesn't always work out, it doesn't always seem ok, and definitely not what you thought. How i met your mother is not about how you met the mom but what it took to do along the way ......(editors note HIMYM is better than friends)

[@rickdow8576]

There were issues with how they wrapped that show up. Because of that I would have at least put it way down on this list. If at all.

[@mazedaartist5691]

It was definitely a botched ending, it seemed abrupt and poorly timed. Like they tried to squeeze it in at the very end. People aren't mad about the ending because there is always a good way to deliver an ending that people don't want, and that wasn't it

[@grahtman]

It's Always Sunny at 22 is insane to me. Abbott Elementary is still going, but definitely deserves to be on this list imo. Also NO EVERYBODY LOVES RAYMOND?!

[@philobrien8920]

My list (In somewhat of a particular order? 1. Mash 2. Family Guy 3. 3rd Rock from the Sun 4. Becker 5. The Drew Carey Show 6. Seinfeld 7. The Jeffersons 8. Frasier 9. Red Dwarf 10. Fresh Prince of Bel Air

[@johnrutkowski4166]

Now this is what I call rigged. The only placement I agree with is Seinfeld & The Office above Friends.

[@PamelaOspina]

The ad placed between the legen and dary 👏 congrats to whoever did that 😂🎉

[@lusalma5404]

I mean... the Honeymooners, The Odd couple... and no, hard disagree on Seinfeld.

[@kymmkam73]

Agree! That show was about as funny as a chapped ass!

[@HeelSection3825]

@@lusalma5404 As someone who thinks that Seinfeld is in the exact right spot; it's just a different generation. I think Seinfeld is HILARIOUS. Sorry, but humor evolved. When I watch some ancient show like The Honeymooners; I know the punchline of every single joke before I hear it. People from Gen X and younger get nothing from humor that's that predictable. Sorry if you don't get it, but comedy has moved on. You actually have to THINK at least a little bit as to WHY something is funny now. The days of "take my wife, please" are LONG gone!

[@lusalma5404]

@@HeelSection3825 I AM Gen X; and Seinfeld never, ever worked for me.

[@HeelSection3825]

@lusalma5404 Well, I don't know what to tell you. You're a rarity. Those really old shows are lame AF. WAAAAAAY too predictable humor.

[@yoteca]

I understand why it's missing, but the Cosby show deserves to be here. This is a sitcom list, not taking into account the real life actors behind the characters.

[@jasonrothbaum7266]

Honeymooners, Two and a Half Men, Dick Van Dyke show, and... wait for it... THE COSBY SHOW.

[@paulnelson7525]

Whenever I need a laugh or to get out of a funk my go to show will always be The Mary Tyler Moore Show. She does turn the world on with her smile.

[@BenBrandon-tz3ee]

Can't believe Malcom in the middle and that 70s show was not in this list.

[@deynerichardson]

No Cosby Show is crazy and having Friends on here and no Living Single like they ain’t steal the whole premise is wild work. Good Times should be on here too!

[@projectpamaphd7042]

I love Three's Company. My favorite episode is the one with the big misunderstanding.

[@conscientiousobserver8772]

Oh, that one. 😜

[@amick425]

Everybody loves Raymond and the dick van Dyke show.

[@mazedaartist5691]

Seinfeld is the greatest of all time!

[@Tker1970]

#29. No one knew what the hell a lanai was until The Golden Girls aired.

[@Jamessmith-xk3fh]

Golden Girls, All In The Family, and I Love Lucy should be top 3. I'm tired of every sitcom list placing Seinfeld number 1 because it's really not that good

[@michaelb7131]

Cosby Show absolutely belongs on the list. It was the number one comedy show in the 80s

[@jennyfab312]

Agree. We can separate the art from the artist

[@rdspam]

I appreciate not completely ignoring the classics, but there’s no way The Honeymooners isn’t on a true list of all-time greats.

[@Xayjohns]

The Cosby Show (my all-time favorite show in spite of what we know about Bill Cosby now) Family Matters The Bernie Mac Show Living Single Martin The Golden Girls (the four funniest women in tv history) Everybody Loves Raymond (Probably my favorite ensemble cast of any television show, apart from The Cosby Show. I wouldn't change any of them for another actor. They were perfect.) The Middle (the most underrated sitcom of the last 15 years in my opinion) Everybody Hates Chris Sanford and Son The Andy Griffith Show Boy Meets World Moesha Married with Children The Office (US) (another one the greatest ensemble casts)

[@TheRealLarryMaxwell]

No Two and a half men or Everybody Loves Raymond is criminal
