Best Comedy Shows of the 2000s
Two and a Half Men is an American television sitcom that began broadcast on CBS on September 22, 2003, and ended on February 19, 2015 after twelve seasons. By far the funniest programme out there! Not the same since Charlie left though...
Jake and Charlie are the best!
The Simpsons is an American animated sitcom created by Matt Groening that originally started on April 19, 1987 as shorts on The Tracey Ullman Show. It got its own series on December 17, 1989 and is still running as of 2023, making it the longest running animated sitcom. It is about a man named Homer Simpson and his family (wife Marge and children Bart, Lisa and Maggie and pets, Snowball II and Santa's Little Helper) going through a long series of misadventures. There is absolutely no question out of the below mentioned series this is the only true comedy (no drama and or romance elements) and by far surpasses the other shows in not only humor, satire and cynicism.
Friends is an American television sitcom, created by David Crane and Marta Kauffman, which originally aired on NBC from September 22, 1994, to May 6, 2004, lasting ten seasons. It now airs on Nick at Nite.
The story is primarily about 6 individuals (Ross [David Schwimmer], and his sister, Monica [Courtney Cox], Joey and Chandler [Matt LeBlanc and Matt Perry], who are best friends, Jennifer [Rachel Green], and Phoebe [Lisa Kudrow]. The characters constantly get into situations and love affairs and such in the plot. Friends is the best of the nineties and and noughties. It's the greatest of all great television shows- an absolute true classic show!

It's great and made its first few shows in 2000's and so it should be in its' highlight years really?

Modern Family is an American television mockumentary family sitcom that premiered on ABC on September 23, 2009, which follows the lives of Jay Pritchett and his family, all of whom live in suburban Los Angeles. The show ended on April 8, 2020 after 11 seasons. Best show EVER. No doubt whatsoever. You find new jokes every time you watch it even though you might have already watched that episode 100 times. So cleverly written. Every character in that show you can relate to someone in your life. The second show that can make me laugh so hard after the Simpsons.
South Park is an American adult animated sitcom created by Trey Parker and Matt Stone for the Comedy Central television network. The show is about four boys, who are Stan Marsh, Kyle Broflovski, Eric Cartman, and Kenny McCormick, and their adventures in South Park, Colorado. This should be at the top. South park forever. In my opinion, this should be higher than family guy at the very least (I am a huge family guy fan by the way). The only reason why it is so low is because kids now-a-day don't know about this show.
How I Met Your Mother is an American sitcom that originally aired on CBS from September 19, 2005, to March 31, 2014. The series follows the main character, Ted Mosby, and his group of friends in Manhattan.
