    Any list without Office feels irrelevant to me but, that's just me.

    I'd definitely say the Office is my fav. No other series come to my mind other than that. I watched Arrested Development, Friends, It's Always Sunny in Phili, HIMYM but I'm not sure if any of them were half as funny as the Office. Anyway, Community deserves a mention too maybe. I've always wanted to watch Curb Your Enthusiasm but I never had a chance to...

    The Office (US)
    South Park
    The Inbetweeners
    The Thick of It

    Just downloaded Curb Your Establishment, after I get through GoT - that’s next.

    It’s socially awkward, cringe-inducing, anxiety riddled comedy gold from start to finish.

    The whole conscious dialogue from the 2 main characters & POV directing is genius.

    You’ll see what I mean if you watch it.
