If you don't think Curb, Always Sunny, or Arrested Development are funny, you are not a funny person. It is known.
Finally watched/finished Parks and Rec. What's next?

Malcom in the Middle. There’s a character for every person to relate to.
My wife and just started it and are 7 episode in. Ok so far but waiting for it to get as "good" as how often I hear it recommended.
Didn't watch Malcom in the Middle as it came out. Watched some on Netflix or Hulu and it was really funny.
My wife and I are currently enjoying New Girl, but it might just fit in with our sense of humor.
An under rated series to watch would be The Good Place
I believe both can be found on netflix
New Girl is hilarious. The one episode where they get high and go to Winston's cop cookout cracks me up over and over. I keep it on in the background while I do things, because I don't really have to pay attention but can still catch things and laugh
We’ve really like Superstore although the most recent season drug a bit.
Schitts Creek definitely.
Schitts Creek definitely.
Always Sunny, yes one of the best. Arrested Development, yes but on the second tier. I will tell someone no touching or to go buy a star war though and there IS always money in the banana stand. But it’s not consistently my favorite. Curb is amusing but down in the third tier of comedies I watch/watched (like New Girl, Modern Family, How I Met Your Mother, Everybody Loves Raymond, Big Bang Theory, etc...).
None of those other than Always Sunny are on par with Dave, Barry, What We Do In the Shadows, Ted Lasso, You’re the Worst or even Kim’s Convenience and Schitt’s Creek (the latter two are too stuck in the true sitcom world to be a 10/10 but they are both well acted with great writing).
I'd add Veep as a great comedy to check out.
FYI - Curb has been renewed for a season 11.

30 Rock is maybe top 3 sitcoms ever made.
New Girl is funnier/more enjoyable than people might think just reading a description of the show. I remember being surprised by how good it was several years back when my roommate at the time started watching it and recommended it.
With a lot of streaming series I can't remember for longer than a few months how the last season ended and I usually have to catch up a little bit when I start the new season.
The last season of Ozark was released in March and we watched it right away and I still remember how it ended.
Same thing with Stranger Things.
I think that is a testament to the quality of writing on both series.
You either didn't give Ozark long enough or you are in the vast minority of people who don't like this series.
Is Flight Attendant scary? The Mrs (nopic) has a fine line on suspense and she thought this one looked potentially on the line.
Haha...that’s what I thought. I want to watch it, maybe I’ll preview and episode or two and then decide whether to pull her in.
This show is amazing. I loved the office, parks and rec, etc. but goldbergs might be my favorite. A couple others:
Last Man On Earth
The Middle (highly under rated, not sure why it didn’t get more attention but went 9 seasons)
Santa Clarita Diet
Kim's Convience is funny. About Korean Immigrants that run a convience store in Toronto.
I'll have to add it to the list, currently I've been watching Chuck. It's a show I always wanted to watch, just missed when it first came out. Reminds me a lot of Psych...comedy, romance, action, intrigue--but never enough to be too serious.
Yeah I watched a couple years of that. But then got bored. Nothing against the show most of them I don't go beyond two seasons. Especially American shows. The shear volume stretches the writing thin. I get why from a syndication financial standpoint it pays mortgages and gets other individuals experience to produce new art. Still not my thing to see Michael Scott or Dr. Cox do something inappropriate for the 90th time.
The Office is a topic I try to avoid in polite conversation. It's one of those things I got called gay for liking when it was airing, stopped liking while it was still on the air, and now the people who called me gay love it, especially all the side character bits after season 3 when the tension and drama had run its course and all that was left was exploring characters that were originally meant to be very shallow cartoons.
I prefer the British Office. The daughter loves the US Office so I've seen it all.
