I'm almost done watching Arrested Development and I need a new comedy series to watch. So far I've seen:
The Office
Scrubs
It's Always Sunny
30 Rock
Futurama
South Park
Simpsons
Any other ideas?
The Big Bang Theory.
Probably the best show I've seen on TV in the past couple years. Very intelligent and funny stuff.
You should try the IT Crowd and Spaced, two comedies I enjoy a lot. Shame Spaced ended after two series.
The Inbetweeners.
How i met your mother
Modern Family
Curb Your Enthusiasm
Titus

This show is horrible. This is what the writers consider funny.

Did you only watch 5 seconds of the show? It's really great stuff, but sometimes (like that clip) the laugh track is overused.
It's not the way it was written, it's the way Sheldon said it, he's just a very funny and likable character.
I can't stand the Big Bang theory.
I love the fact that it's bringing nerdism to the tv viewing public, but it's just bad. Alot of the jokes fall flat, and the characters are either flat out annoying (ie: Sheldon) or dumb. The set up for the show is that two nerds meet a hot chick and then gradually become friends. But it seems as if the writers for the show needed to put out as much references as possible to get the fact that their nerds across.
Just my opinion though.
Red Dwarf.
the good guys

Big Bang Theory
How I Met Your Mother
Modern Family
Probably gonna try Curb Your Enthusiasm and Titus first since they seem similar to Arrested Development.

Didn't think I was going to like it, ended up loving it.
Community, fucking amazing show
Black Books

We have a very similar taste, so here's what TO [B]AVOID[/B] AT ALL COSTS
Modern Family
How I Met Your Mother
Big Bang Theory
Two and a Half Men
etc etc

Things what are good:
Everything you listed (bar scrubs I'm so sick of scrubs now) PLUS
Spaced
The Inbetweeners
Louie
I'm running out of good comedy shows too though.

I've also heard Black Books is really good and I like the cast so I'll assume it is good, just haven't gotten around to watching it yet.
I love Louie. He's so hilariously pathetic.
Watched my first episode of Delocated today. Was pretty funny.

Well some of their statements on science are sometimes mildly accurate, but that's about it.

Definitely this, one of the most brilliant shows ever, also Curb your Enthusiasm is really funny.
QI is a great show. It's not a sitcom though.

Why do people dislike two and a half men? I think it's hilarious

Black Books is fantastic. Anything by Graham Linehan is pretty much hilarious.
I also think the IT Crowd does a far better job at making geeks funny than Big Bang Theory.
It seems to me all American sitcoms seem to revolve around a guy trying to get a girl and making jokes about sex because it's so taboo on American television.

Father Ted as well. It's an oldie but goodie.
Sitcoms with laugh tracks. Ugh
Adventure Time. It's not so much comedy as entertainment but it's fucking awesome.
