Arrested Development

By far the best sitcom ever to grace television, even one of the best shows period. Extremely smart and very fast paced comedy, there's no "setup setup setup punchline" nonsense, it's just a constant barrage of well written, well acted humor... And it only gets better the second time you watch.

Any person not saying it is the best sitcom ever, hasn't seen it..
Really, the plot is awesome, jokes makes you wanna see them over and over again, after seeing whole show, you wanna start watching it all over again.
Really, how I met your mother, friends, modern family, they are awesome, but this - is masterpiece.

The smartest, most fast paced comedy I've ever seen... So many recurring jokes, brilliant writing... The characters are just too funny!

I could write endlessly about how good Arrested Development is and why, but I don't want to waste your time when you could be watching it instead and finding out for yourself. I will simply say this: Arrested Development is undeniably the funniest, most intelligent, best written and fantastically acted sitcom that has ever existed. In my opinion (and that of every soul I've ever met who's seen it), Arrested Development is the greatest sitcom of all time.

most ingenious comedy of our generation. writing is superb, and its a show you want to watch over and over because of the number of clever jokes that are impossible to catch the first time through. this hurt it as far as ratings go, but in the realm of television culture, this show has to be considered at least top 5. in my opinion, the best ever.

Why the hell isn't this show in the top three list? This is one hell of an awesome show. I don't like looking at this show occupying the 14th rank. Send it up. To the first or at least the second. According to me, the list should be - Friends, Seinfeld and Arrested Development.

It is very original and has joke that I never heard things resemble like them. It has superb writing and takes a dysfunctional family to a whole new level! It won 6 emmys and was critically acclaimed. It was ended way earlier than it should of. Even the finally was great. I was devastated that it was canceled.

Not a surprise that it tops all other sitcoms on IMDB. It is nothing short of marvelous. The plot, acting, direction and humor are all exceptional. Waiting for the Arrested Development movie next year.

Arrested Development is the best written and best casted sitcom of all time. The careful thought that went into this show is beyond anything any other show has ever dreamed of. No question #1 of all time.

Brilliant. I love the writing and the first episode has some of the most intelligent and subtle jokes that I have ever witnessed. It's a shame it got cancelled so early on, because it had so much potential. It's truly inspires me to write.

I don't know if its the best sitcom of all time, but this show definitely deserves a top 10 bid. Such a dense show, filled with laughs. The greatest show no ones ever heard of. End of story

No wonder this show is not on the top, not even on the top-10. No one can really understand this kind of art without patience. This is masterful creation. Trully amazing.

The Best show in the history of television. I miss the show so much. it was smart funny fresh and unexpected. Mitchell hurwitz has done a great job!

This must top the list, believe me. Most of the sitcoms placed above it don't even come close to it. Arrested Development, Seinfeld, Friends. That's the order.

Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant. Should definitely be number one. Smart writing, constantly rewarding for fans with many references to itself.

You may not end up laughing all the time, but when you do, you really laugh. Give a chance and you won't regret it. It's the best ever. Come on. Watch it.

Best written comedy I've ever seen. And it's infinitely rewatchable. And with season 4 on netflix there's even more reason to catch up with the Bluths.

I have just finished watching it. It's seriously addictive and I have loved every bit of it. I wish they had made more episode of it.

Any Sitcom Top 3 should have this one, as one of the most intelligent comedy ever - along Seinfeld and Curb Your Enthusiasm.

Amazing series, just found them and fell in love. In this sitcom characters arnt presented with a funny situation, but instead their actions lead to most obscure outplays ever. And every serie that you watch is more unexpected than the previos one, its just mind blowing.

The subtle genius of the show is still unmatched. 30 rock is my new pick. But I don't get how it can be listed after HIMYM?

this show should be top ten easily. If you haven't watched it you need to. Subtle humour up there with Seinfeld.

you're making a huge mistake!

this should be the first on the list!!!

This has to be number one sitcom it is pure genius, how can it possibly be below My Hero and King of Queens.

The writing is hilarious, especially the puns! ^^ everything ties in so perfectly.
