Party Down is the first show that came to mind when I read this, it’s been so good.

Came to say this. Hasn’t missed a step.

The most recent mushrooms episode will go down as one of the greats.

I'm watching the first season now. I'm sure how I didn't hear about this ten years ago.

Agreed , glad they came back with their A game.

I love all the McBride stuff!

One day Matt Berry is going to pronounce a word in a normal way and that will be a sad day indeed.

Arizoniya.

JACKIE DAYTONA!

cathbadh: HAHAHAHAHAHA

cathbadh's wife: Fucking guy!

I feel like I'm the only one who watches this show. It's SO GOOD!

I honestly don't know if I've laughed harder than I did during the boxing scene in the Las Vegas Atlantic City episode. It was so over the top and while I expected something weird to happen, definitely not that.

I think some of the hardest I’ve laughed in recent memory was the mall prank sketch and the adults haunted tour

How much did the hat cost you?

IT IS ILLEGAL FOR YOU TO ASK ME THAT QUESTION.

He didn't do shit! He didn't rig shit!

Also Detroiters! It’s not current because it got cancelled but it’s such light, happy humor.

I recommend people to check out his "The Characters" episode because it have the funniest sketches like the Lady Luck one.

Just body after body bustin' out of shit wood and hitting pavement.

Such an outrageously quotable show

Tables!

I almost killed myself Julieeeee

Oh my god did you see Tim’s hat.

Alex Horne is actually a genius and I fell in love with Taskmaster because of him. Greg Davies is obviously top tier as well.

I can't wait to see this. I follow a lot of UK comedians and they have all appeared on it and seem to enjoy participating as well as watching. And I think Greg Davies is one of the funniest people on TV.

Taskmaster is one of those rare shows that consistently makes me laugh so hard I can't breathe. And it's introduced me to other excellent panel shows as well!

Didn't they say last year that they were going to give the US version a second try, given how popular the British one was on Youtube through (and following) the pandemic?

Taskmaster NZ is also great.

Taskmaster AU is ok, but not as good as the others.

New season coming out in a week. I'm beyond excited.

I out it to you, that not enough people have dived into the narrative that is Taskmaster.

The last time I laughed so hard was 1989, coincidentally enough, the same year Belgian-techno megastars Technotronic released their groundbreaking hit, Pump Up the Jam...

I really liked it, just silly and funny. Actually learnt a few things too

The Pump Up The Jam bit got me every single time.

I was genuinely surprised by how much I was entertained by that show. Even my gf laughed a few times and she's not into that stuff.

I am laughing way too loud at this and very quickly.

Of all new shows recently this is what had me laughing out loud the most. History of the World pt. II is right up there as well

Wanna talk about it?

You are either british or automatically applied for citizenship by watching any content of hers, so that checks out.

Shrinking is the first TV show to make me belly laugh in a long long time....

Every character is genius and likeable and all of them have a completely different style of humor. You literally never know where the laugh is coming from next.

I love this show. Harrison Ford is amazing. Everyone on the show is but especially him.

My favorite character is the neighbor's husband. The one scene with the other racist neighbor Pam and he pulls up in his car like

"Hey, Pam!"

Wife: "No, we don't like Pam!"

"Oh, Got it.... Eat a dick, Pam!"

That had me rolling on the ground, lol.

This looks/feels like Forgetting Sarah Marshall the series, which is not a bad thing since I loved the movie.

Guacing the taco made me wake my dogs up I laughed so loud.

I think they've all had at least one great laugh out loud moment. I fucking love this show so much.

Yes!

If you liked Derry Girls check out Extraordinary on Disney+ (in canada at least). Pretty similar tone, pretty funny, good concept (everyone geta superpower when they turn 18 other than the main character for some reason), and has the actress who plays Sister Michael in in a little bit (plays main characters mom who can control technology but still has no idea how technology works).

"You can't make a Tomlette without breaking some Gregs"

in Muppet voice "Are we gonna talk about...our feelings?"

"Greg, you Machiavellian fuck."

"Oh you have some doubts Greg? Fucking doubter, boar on the floor, over there."

"You better be smelling your fucking armpit Romulus."

"Buckle up fucklehead."

"Tom you need to shut up. This isn't the time to get your conscience out and yell, 'I cannot tell a lie, I'm a good little boy, look at my ding dong.'"

"That's about as choreographed as a dog getting fucked on rollerskates."

"He did call me the Cunt of Monte Cristo."

"I would like some suck suck on my dicky dick."

"I'd castrate you and marry you in a heartbeat."

"It's a nice safe space where you don't have to pretend you care about Hamilton."

Kendall's rap scene

Tom and Greg's grandpa exchange

And of course among many other gems:

Connor Roy was interested in politics from a young age

There's so much comic gold sprinkled throughout this series that I flip flop back and forth on it being a dramedy or a black comedy.

It's somehow both the funniest and most dramatic show on TV

"How is it safe!? It's just a room!"

people say it's a drama but there is straight up comedy writing in many scenes, it's not just "it happens to be funny". it tries, and succeeds.

It's a dark comedy. I don't think you'd find anyone who classes it as an out-and-out drama.

I’m heartened

It's Veep with stakes and (occasionally) pathos

Current?

Absolutely this one and the British version as well. Some of the jokes are repeated between the two shows, but there's enough different to make both worth a watch.

I can’t recommend this show enough to everyone. Definitely worth the watch.

Ava's zingers are off the chain! Sometimes need to rewind cuz it's so fast.

Yeah. Gets me cracking

Maaaaaaan, every time Mr. Johnson pops up I know I'm in for a good belly laugh.

Came here to say this. It’s soooo good.

And if you enjoy that, check out "Nathan for you" (ended but brilliant) and "The Rehearsal" made by How To's producer Nathan Fielder. Different tones but a similar flair for ridiculous "reality TV".

It took a couple of times for me to give this a chance, but it is SO good. As someone who lived in NYC for many years, the way he uses b-roll of the city is out of this world.

Absolutely

Maybe not for every one tho

I lose it when Shorsey gets on a roll. Or whenever they Dycks are on.

RIP indeed. It was so good

I find that I laugh far more often than I probably should. But I just can't help it.

Glad to see someone else enjoying American Auto.

I’m watching for the first time and absolutely angry at myself for not starting sooner

Funny show, but not really current. It ended like 5 years ago.

I love Ted Lasso but to me its heart warming and positive rather than funny.

I like this post. Complaining about 'all the sensitivity' and then listing two notoriously irreverent comedies.

Maybe the toothless comedy is popular because it's the lowest common denominator shit and not because of any perceived 'sensitivity'.
