Parks and Recreation

Armed with idea binders and the stalwart help of fellow employees, small-town civil servant Leslie Knope bushwhacks through bureaucracy to make her hometown of Pawnee, Indiana a better place.

The Office

The beleaguered employees of Dunder Mifflin have given us so much. The Office was the first American TV series to use the mockumentary style of storytelling, which has been copied many times since. The depiction of the drudgery of office life was also new — previous workplace sitcoms generally involved people at their dream jobs. But mainly, The Office is one of the funniest, most beloved, most quotable shows of all time, and it’s only streaming on Peacock. Make sure to check out Superfan Episodes, with tons of extended scenes and bonus footage.

The King of Queens

In this traditional multi-camera comedy filmed before a live studio audience, everyman Doug Heffernan (Kevin James) puts in a long day's work delivering parcels before coming home each night to his loving wife Carrie (Leah Remini), and his eccentric and annoying father-in-law Arthur (Jerry Stiller). Three is definitely a crowd for this small blue-collar family, and that is exactly what makes the show so funny.

That ‘70s Show

A funny, nostalgic look back at a bygone era, this teen comedy is set in the mood ring and polyester years of 1970s suburban Wisconsin. An eclectic group of friends on the verge of adulthood yearns for independence and deals with the foibles of coming of age. Many of the cast members became breakout stars, including Mila Kunis, Ashton Kutcher, Topher Grace, Wilmer Valderrama, and Laura Prepon.

Everybody Loves Raymond

The title here says it all. Everybody does love this show, and for good reason. It’s a traditional multi-camera sitcom filmed on a basic set with the simple premise of a multigenerational family all trying to get along with each other, but the situations are so relatable, the characters are so perfectly drawn, and the cast is so outstanding, that it is nine seasons of pure comedy gold.

30 Rock

Tina Fey created, wrote, and stars in this send up of backstage life at a weekly late night variety show, based more-than-loosely on her experience on SNL. The all-star cast also includes Alec Baldwin, Tracy Morgan, and Jane Krakowski. This hilarious show is literally a laugh-riot, with jokes coming so fast and furious that you often have to rewind to catch all of them. Good thing all seven seasons are available to stream.

Two and a Half Men

This raunchy, raucous comedy fave involves a rich, hedonistic player living the dream in his beachfront Malibu pad who must endure his neurotic, strait-laced brother and young nephew coming to live with him. Even though Charlie Sheen was replaced by Ashton Kutcher halfway through its epic 12-season run, the show never loses its footing and remains an lol delight until the end.

The Bernie Mac Show

The late, great Bernie Mac made the jump from stand-up to celebrated actor with this wonderful family sitcom. In it, Bernie and his wife suddenly become parents when his sister drops off her three kids en route to rehab.

Frasier

Kelsey Grammer reprises his role as Dr. Frasier Crane in this wildly popular Cheers spinoff. Here, Frasier moves back to his hometown of Seattle and becomes a radio talk show host, but he often finds it hard to follow his own advice when it comes to dealing with his family. Frasier holds the record as the most Emmy-winning sitcom of all time, with a whopping 37 statuettes over the course of its 11 seasons, including five for Best Comedy Series. Episodes of the show are often constructed as classical farces, which make them perfect for repeat viewing.

Roseanne

This groundbreaking comedy was deservedly praised (and beloved) for its honest depiction of a working-class family. Though times are never easy for the Connors, the laughs certainly are. You’ll fall hard in love with this bunch of hardscrabble strivers struggling to make ends meet, just as Americans did when it first premiered.

Married… with Children

In this purposefully crass comedy classic, a crusty, misogynistic shoe salesman and his lazy, spendthrift housewife barely manage to tolerate each other while raising their socially inept son and promiscuous daughter. The huge hit show was largely responsible for putting the fledgling Fox Network on the map, and making stars out of then-largely unknown Ed O’Neill, Katey Sagal, and Christina Applegate.

Cheers

This long-running comedy juggernaut about the denizens of a Boston bar where everybody knows your name remained just as popular for decades in syndication as it was when it premiered back in 1982. Ted Danson plays Sam Malone, a former professional relief pitcher who opens the titular bar. We challenge you not to cherish every episode all over again.

Good Times

Here’s another groundbreaking comedy, this time from legendary creator Norman Lear. Good Times, one of the many popular spinoffs that stem from All in the Family, revolves around Florida and James Evans, a poor couple doing their best to raise their family in the Chicago projects in the 1970s. Despite the difficult circumstances, the laughs are plenty, and the Evans family are worth getting to know.
