Top 10 Funniest TV Shows of All Time
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. I can tell why it's number 1. I'm on season 24 and I was watching it for a year, so far, it has been a blast! Every episode is funny and offensive at the same time! Now I am 10 and because of the show, I know a lot of things that I shouldn't. This is an 18+ show but it never gets old! The show itself is very creative, funny, rude, and enjoyable! Out of all the r-rated stuff I watched, this one is the best, and it will last you for a while! They use fictional characters, and real people, and always make fun of them! I recommend watching this show if you like funny and offensive jokes!
I hate this show! Trey Parker and Matt Stone should go to hell for poking fun at celebrities, mainly Anne Hathaway! And it's inappropriate for kids!
South Park is most definitely the wittiest show to have come from the past millennium. It is basically the perfect balance of sleaze, social satire, politics, shock value interwound with purpose, and a surprisingly heart-warming charm for a show whose reputation was basically built on political incorrectness and anarchism. It even features pretty interesting characters. My favorite characters are Cartman, Kyle, Butters, Kenny, Randy Marsh, Mr. Garrison, and Mr. Mackey. They all are carved with big and dynamic personalities and make the show worth watching.
All in all, this is a show you have to watch if you love to laugh at something funny. You are going to die of laughter. Even the non-satirical episodes are pretty damn hilarious. Seasons 4-19 are gold. (Seasons 1-3 and 20 are okay meaning a bit sub par considering the high standards of this show).
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... read more Family guy is pretty funny. But after three episodes it got boring and I stopped watching.
The Simpsons never gets boring. I've watched 14 hours straight and only stopped because it was three in the morning and I needed to sleep. All that time, and I still wanted to watch more.
It's a miracle, the humour of this show. I don't know how to describe it; be it realistic, satirical, comically relieving or just downright FUNNY.
This show is the best one out there. My 6 year-old brother started watching and my parents didn't like it. But then, after watching just one episode, my dad decided that this was too good to be hidden from our children, even if they don't get the humour.
Basically, it is a blessing for the entire family when you see "The simpsons" on the list of recordings.
Family guy sucks, as for south park, round people are weird. Yellow people are better!
I spent 5 minutes of my time writing this review because I wanted to make the world a better place. Now its your turn... WATCH THE SIMPSONS!
Family Guy is an American adult animated sitcom created by Seth MacFarlane for the Fox Broadcasting Company. The series centers on the Griffins, a family consisting of parents Peter (Fat, Idiotic Dad) and Lois (Nagging Bitchy Wife), their children Meg (Socially Awkward Daughter) Chris (Fat, Idiotic Son), and Stewie (Sociopathic and Genuine Infant); and lastly Brian (Anthromorphic Pet Dog). The show... read more Many people say this show takes jokes way too far or it's too offensive, but if you are offended by it, don't watch it! This is the most hilarious cartoon I've ever seen, hands down (with South Park being second, Looney Tunes being third, Gravity Falls being fourth and The Simpsons being fifth). Even though this show has run for 18 seasons, it still makes me laugh as hard as ever, with Impractical Jokers the only show that cracks me up more.
Okay when I searched this up I was hoping for Family Guy to be in first place. Because I knew South Park for years now but I hardly even watch any episodes at all. I mean Family Guy is the best Seth Green show ever I mean every time I watch an episode I feel like laughing as hard as possible. Also Seth Green is the best cartoonist ever! I love how Family Guy has all these random episodes and at my school me and a my friends were outside and we all were taking vote seeing what favorite does everybody like and Family Guy won also my favorite character is Stewie.
SpongeBob SquarePants is an American animated television series created by marine biologist and animator the late Stephen Hillenburg for Nickelodeon. SpongeBob is currently the most popular show on Nickelodeon, as well as the longest running show, running for 23 years, and is beginning its 13th season. The show revolves around a sea sponge called SpongeBob SquarePants and his adventures under the... read more Most kids shows are silly, but this one is so funny! Even adults can enjoy this show, fun for the whole family.
I love Patrick because he's so adorable, cute, funny, dumb but smart when he wants to be, and just has a good spirit.
Ummm Dude just so you know it has hidden dirtyness but I love it anyway, I'm nine so of course I vote this but it deserves it! Maybe not to you but to me it is!
The Office is an American television comedy series that aired on NBC from March 24, 2005 to May 16, 2013. Who doesn't like this show. Come on I've already finished the series 4 times now and I still quote random lines to random people and I STILL think this show is so funny. The U.K version did start the U.S version too, but The U.S version is better. And anyways the U.S version doesn't talk about inflatable penises and crap.
The office is a perfect mix of comedy, romance, story, and friendship. But of course, where Steve Carrel is involved, the most important is comedy.
Although it is very overrated and overhyped, it's a pretty hilarious show. Literally every episode has me laughing hysterically.
Four single friends -- comic Jerry Seinfeld, bungling George Costanza, frustrated working gal Elaine Benes and eccentric neighbor Cosmo Kramer -- deal with the absurdities of everyday life in New York City. Oh man, I recorded the episodes on the VHS when it was on T.V. in Croatia, 1997-99. To me, this is the best show of all time, and I was so sad when Jerry said that the show is over. I think they would be the best even nowadays. Nobody beats them... Nobody.
Sienfield is a show you could talk about the next day or week and still laugh at the situations. Most you can't do that. We have watched each episode at least 10 times.
Hands down best comedy show since Jackie Gleson and the honeymooners. If Kramer doesn't get you laughing hysterically you not my kinda person
The Big Bang Theory is an American sitcom created by Chuck Lorre and Bill Prady, both of whom serve as executive producers on the series, along with Steven Molaro, and also some wasted guest stars from time to time. I really adore this show so much! I watch it everyday because it is so funny! Me and my friends love this show and I like the characters. They are extremely hilarious. I think it should be number 1. It has lots of different things that happen and I like how people are so entertaining. It is about a group of nerds who try to survive and carry on with their lives. They all try to get girlfriends and many other things happen in this extremely funny sitcom.
It should at least beat spongebob squarepants.
I LOVE TBBT
Howard's personality really sold it for me
I also really like Sheldon, Penny, and Raj (and everyone else has their moments as well)
This show really shows the inside of "geeks" and socially awkward people with a comedic twist.
The jokes are extremely funny as well as educational and all in all, this should be #1 hands down.
I only saw TWO episodes, but it was the funniest thing I've ever watched! I don't really have much time to watch it know that school has started, but I will start watching all of them on Netflix soon.
Impractical Jokers is an American hidden camera reality series that premiered on TruTV on December 15, 2011, and is produced by NorthSouth Productions. I can't believe this is not #1 everything is funny about this show and I emphasize "everything"! What makes this stand out from all other shows on T.V. is how "Genuinely Funny" it is, they are not faking their laughs "AKA Sal". Nothing will "Ever" beat this show in my opinion, because even when I'm having really bad day, this show "Always" finds a way to get me to laugh and feel better, in the moment when I watch this show is completely forget why my day was bad. That's why this show can not and will not be ever beat In my opinion of course. I will forever be a huge fan of this show.
Guys, this has to be THE funniest show of all time. There is no show that I recommend to my friends more than this one. It's unbelievably funny. If you like to laugh your *ss off for 20-30 minutes straight, then this is the show for you. Every single episode is hilarious, there aren't any unfunny episodes like the other shows on this list. No. Every single one is hysterical. The interesting part is that this show is unscripted. It's just pure genuine laughs and dialogue from four lifelong friends who compete to embarrass each other :) If you haven't seen this show then you're missing out!
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... read more
I LOVE Friends! Every episode makes me laugh and/or cry. Even 23 years later, Friends is a classic! So, so funny and so, so, good. The characters are good people without being obnoxious and the characters are hilarious without being over the top. It has a perfect blend of comedy and tenderness that makes it perfect!
I can see every episode a thousand times, and still laugh yet again, and to be honest, it is difficult to get me to laugh, but man, the six of these nail it every damn time!
Friends combine the funny facts with the charm and the quality humour. It is not a funny show, but it also has many typologies (every actor has something special).
Saturday Night Live is an American late-night live television variety show created by Lorne Michaels and developed by Dick Ebersol. I'm absolutely in love with the earlier seasons of the show (1975-1980). It really set the tone for American satire on T.V. and it launched the careers of so many incredible people like Chevy Chase, Gilda Radner, John Belushi, Dan Aykroyd and many more. To this day, it's still more relevant than ever and the main source of satire in America. Sure, the most recent seasons can't compete to the first ones (at least in my opinion) but the show is still standing.
I was exposed to the show at a young age and I didn't get it but now as I'm older it's one of - if not the funniest shows on T.V..
Ah, this. One show for everyone ten and up that's actually good.
The Newcomers
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia is an American sitcom that first premiered on FX on August 4, 2005 and has since moved to FXX beginning with the ninth season. Comedy Genius. This show has the most sociopathic characters in all of T.V. and uses them to the advantage of the plot. It is so wonderfully written and perfectly paced. Every episode, I leave laughing at the immorality of the Gang. The fact that Sunny is so low proves it's cult status.
P.S. The Big Bang Theory is so high up because what type of people do you think use this website?
Always sunny in philadelphia should be at the top. The show is way funnier than the simpsons or family guy because it just is in a way and Dennis is my favorite because he is a sociopathic, narcissist and that is just hilarious! Like he always thinks he is superior even though he isn't or that everyone is against him though they aren't.
Why is it this far down?! It's hilarious! Charlie's, awkward threats along with franks dishonest and lowdown workings are what make it awesome.
An MTV classic for me, I knew about them when I was an kid! I loved watching the Do America movie, even at an young age! That's how cool it was!
This really should be in the top 20 this show was a major influence for South Park and this show makes things that wouldn't seem funny, funny as hell
Mike Judge sold out big time when he choose king if the hill over Beavis and butthead
Arrested Development is an American television sitcom created by Mitchell Hurwitz, which originally aired on Fox for three seasons from November 2, 2003 to February 10, 2006, followed by a two-season revival on Netflix from May 26, 2013 to March 15, 2019. The show follows the Bluths, a formerly wealthy dysfunctional family. It is presented in a serialized format, incorporating handheld camera work,... read more Absolutely hilarious, Simpsons is my favorite show, but this the funniest show. So many jokes that go over your head the first time, and rewatching you catch a new one every time. Simply amazing
Absolutely hilarious! Has a very high laughs per minute ratio, if you pay attention to the (partly very subtle) jokes!
So the guy in the $5,300 suit is supposed to explain why AD is the funniest T.V. show of all time? COME ON!
Tom and Jerry is an American animated series of comedy short films created in 1940 by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera. Best known for its 161 theatrical short films by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, the series centers on a rivalry between the title characters Tom, a cat, and Jerry, a mouse. Many shorts also feature several recurring characters. Thier pretending that they're enemies but they're friends because if Tom's owner see's him not hunting jerry, she will get a new cat that will want to kill jerry.
Before I saw SpongeBob, this was the eggnog of animation for me as an kid, I would drink it all the time & it never gets old, It's an old school & relevant classic. SpongeBob (Season 1-3) was like an field trip to me.
Tom and Jerry is a classic it was funny when I was 3 it's still funny now. It's called timeless comedy. It never gets old and is a old school and relevant classic.
Drake & Josh is an American television sitcom created by Dan Schneider for Nickelodeon. The series follows the lives of two teenage boys with opposite personalities, Drake Parker (Drake Bell) and Josh Nichols (Josh Peck), who become stepbrothers.

Futurama is an American animated science fiction sitcom created by Matt Groening for the Fox Broadcasting Company. This is basically The Simpsons set in Space. One of my favourite cartoons of all time. Its kind of funny at times but I mostly find it enjoyable.
Underrated cartoon comedy, with characters that are revolutionary in story and humour! A true gem!
Both clever, humorous and emotional. How could this amazing show not be the best?
Ed, Edd n Eddy is a Canadian-American animated comedy television series created by Danny Antonucci for Cartoon Network, and the sixth of the network's Cartoon Cartoons. The series revolves around three preteen boys: Ed, Edd "Double D," and Eddy—collectively known as "the Eds"—who live in a suburban cul-de-sac in the fictional town of Peach Creek. Under the unofficial leadership of Eddy, the trio... read more I can't stop laughing at what this trio does.
C is for cash and that's fine with eddy, America's funniest eds are right back on Cartoon Network
Steven Spielberg Presents Animaniacs is an American animated comedy television series produced by Amblin Television label in collaboration with Warner Bros. This cartoon does make me laugh. I'm happy that I have the full series (including Wakko's Wish). The characters are the most funniest things in the world. Yakko is my favorite character.
I love the style of 90s Warner Bros's humor of cartoonish satire & action altogether. I really like Yakko, he's my favorite character next to Dr. Scratchansniff.
Very few people remember this show. It's a brilliant show! Watch the hilarious reboot on Hulu.
The title character, played by Rowan Atkinson, is a childish buffoon who brings various unusual schemes and contrivances to everyday tasks. He lives alone at the address of Flat 2, 12 Arbour Road, Highbury, and is almost always seen in his trademark tweed jacket and a skinny red tie. He also usually wears a digital calculator watch. I used to watch mr. bean all the time when I was young with my family so it holds a special place in heart. I have watched all the episodes and even the movies a million times and I'll watch it a million times again and I laugh every single. My favorite episode is episode 10 mind the baby. Rowan Atkinson did a great job he can make you laugh without even saying anything. This is the funniest show ever and deserves to be number 1.
I remember watching this in my childhood days. It was a very funny TV show and a truly iconic classic. Mr. Bean's antic's always make me chuckle.
Even today in my worst days only Mr. Bean can make me still laugh like crazy, deserves top 5 at least
Rocko's Modern Life is an American animated television series created by Joe Murray for Nickelodeon. The series centers on the surreal life of an anthropomorphic Australian-immigrant wallaby named Rocko as well as his friends: the gluttonous steer Heffer, the neurotic turtle Filburt, and Rocko's faithful dog Spunky. Cause its just awesome
Well, of course!
Probably 30% of every laugh I've had in my life, has been because of Monty Pythons Flying Circus. Hahaaahahaahajahahaahahaa
Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!
Looney Tunes is an American animated series of comedy short films produced by Warner Bros. from 1930 to 1969 during the golden age of American animation, alongside its sister series Merrie Melodies. Watched it again recently and I forgot how funny this is. The voice acting is top notch, the way porky pig laughs always gets me.
The most funniest classic of all time. Still love Looney Tunes. The characters are just so hilarious and witty, especially Daffy Duck and Bugs Bunny.
This should number one. South park is funny but Looney Tunes is a lot funnier.
This show is so hilarious, GSN is bringing it back to life in the form of Drew Carey's Improv-a-Ganza. The best part, most of the original comedians from that show will be on it! Whose Line brought improvisational comedy to the mainstream audience, and no other show will do it as well.
Brilliant humour and scenes that you cry from laughing so hard. Genius ideas and brilliant acting that bring humour to new heights!
Such a funny show that has humor for everyone and never fails to make people laugh. Also the fact that it's all improvised makes it funnier
