It's been YEARS since I found a comedy series that was funny. Tried big bang theory, how I met your mother etc. The only decent one was modern family for a while. Tried a lot of the new ones coming out but they are all useless. Strained comedy, too much wokeness, no chemistry with the actors.
Anyone else find the same? Literally had to revert back to Friends just to have something to watch. |

I watched This Way Up this week and that was really good - I love Aisling Bea and Sharon Horgan, very funny women. There's only 6 episodes though.
Parks and Recreation and Veep are brilliant and will keep you going longer.

Ive found most comedy to be the exact opposite for years.
Simple fun. This Country, from the BBC is worth watching. Caught up with new series episodes today and brightened the weekend. We discussed it here a few weeks ago, before the current, and final, series started. |

I love it! It's the one thing I actually look forward to new episodes of. |

There are a lot of references to comedy which was out at the time of Friends. I'm not talking about that. Those comedy shows were funny.
I'm talking about more recent ones. Thanks for those who offered suggestions I will check them out!
The only one I like recently is The Ranch but it starts pretty slow and only gets good half way through first season. It then stopped being funny after a key character left (no spoilers!).
Any more suggestions appreciated. |
