Best Comedy shows since 2000?

Last season of South Park when they dealt with political correctness and other hot topics was great, and the new season just started this week. I think those guys are great in the way they are able to make comedy about the current events and political environment. Plus, now they are making the series more serialized and how the episodes build off each other, instead of singular episodes.

I haven't watch much myself. But if it's not too late to share some more opinions?

Eastbound & Down, That 70's show, Reno 911, King of Queens, Will & Grace, Bernie Mac, Parks and Rec (just getting into it finally, not too bad!)

The IT Crowd if you HULU

Louie is alright, but he's funnier at stand up. 30 Rock was pretty good for the few episodes I saw, but that and Modern Family and many shows these days dress up awkward satire as being funny. I think those shows are just, Ehh.

According to Jim had it's momments. 3rd Rock from the Sun (more late 90's early 2000's) was good. Same with Friends - but very good! "How you doin"

Oh man, how did I forget Eastbound & Down? Loved it. Good call.

 
I've got The Office, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, and Arrested Development in a constant rotation on my Netflix, plus Futurama but that one started in 1999. Other shows I've watched a few episodes of and might like to jump into would be Bob's Burgers, Parks and Rec, and Trailer Park Boys.

 
Still on Parks & Rec. I didn't realize what a good actor Chris Pratt was until I saw him in it.

I was going to say Parks & Rec!

I was also a big fan of Psych. And Archer!

I thought all three seasons of Arrested Development were pretty good. I haven't seen the new ones.

This must be why we get along - we have exactly same taste in comedy.

Only two seasons but Party Down, on Starz, was good.

Very very good.

I'll echo some of the "dark comedies" listed above: always sunny and eastbound and down.

Always sunny and parks and rec. are the exact opposite in tone and approach but equally funny in their own ways.

Has anyone mentioned 30 Rock?

Got my

ready!

Futurama is comedy gold. I've also enjoyed Family Guy a lot throughout the years, as well as American Dad, though they're pretty hit or miss at times.

 
I just don't get the humor in Parks & Rec...or the Office..Probably why nobody ever thought I was funny around here.

But I hoarded recordings of ''Out There''..Mainly because it was set in Holdrege and it was confusing seeing my old girlfriend's parents' house in cartoon form after they sold it to the show's creator's parents..

I just stopped my dish from auto tuning ''Last Man Standing'' this morning...I think I've finally seen them all..
