What happened to Sitcoms? There literally hasnt been a good

>>81697331

Friends doesn't deserve to be in the same category as the others, pretty much The Big Bang Theory of the 90s.

>>81697331
Like big bang theory?

>>81697331
Just got into Frasier. What are the most essential seasons to start with?

>>81697371

Friends is the best show there

>>81697331
>There literally hasnt been a good one to come out this decade
>People Just Do Nothing
>Phone Shop
>Catastrophe
>Detectorists
There have been plenty of them.

Scrubs and friends are trash

My favourite episodes are the one where Martin thinks Niles is trying to kill him, Fraser Crane Day and when Fraser reads his speech in Klingong.

Hey Friendo, Scrubs had kino moments

>>81697428
watch in this order: 11, 2, 3, 1, 8, 4, 10, 9, 7, 5, 6

>when Fraser reads his speech in Klingon
That one's great. Ham Radio's another good one

Not even a Star Trek fan but his co-worker fucking him over in that way was pretty awesome.

>>81697546
Frasier deserved it desu. Often he was just unfortunate, or looked like a dick due to a misunderstanding. But in that episode he absolutely was a dick.

>>81697462
>Detectorists
I love this, but it's not a sitcom really.

>>81697589
I was watching some of the episodes the other day. It's amazing how they had episodes with 3 or 4 simultaneous plots, but you still felt invested in all of them.

>>81697593
It absolutely is though. You could argue it's one with some quite dramatic elements, but it's still a comedy first and foremost.

>adult life summed up in under a minute

>>81697660
I guess I just think of sitcoms as laugh track garbage like big bazinga theory, and shit. I wish more sitcoms were like Detectorists.

nobody can take a joke anymore, if it's not from a cartoon
also Sitcoms died with Malcom and Scrubs

>>81697690

Wasn't that Dewey messing with him or am I thinking of another episode?

>>81698051
You're probably thinking of the episode where they won't buy Dewey a piano so he steals stuff to make an organ in the garage

Only 3 of those on OP's pick are actually good
Can you find out which ones ?

Best fraiser episode is the one where they pretend to be jews.

>Jesus christ.

MitM is ultimately the greatest TV show of all. And YES, it has been discussed

Happy Endings was good

>>81697371

>The Big Bang Theory of the 90s

I just want a well written show with nuanced characters tackling timely issues through tightly knit dialogue delivered by superb actors perfectly walking the fine line between serious and funny.
It can't be that hard right ?
