No Flight of the Conchords on the list?

[Diff-chan]

Flight of the Conchords sucks.

[Compass]

Is that opinion possible?

First rule of posting any horseshit list from some place is to copy and paste said horseshit list so that we don't give the place the bandwith.

It is particularly egregious in this case because the #1 title wasn't on a page. No, you had to sit through 60 seconds of some horseshit movie clip before you got to see what it was.

TERRIBLE

[FirstBlood]

No Flight of the Conchords on the list?

Really? This was your first thought?

[Space Pirate Roberts]

No Dick van Dyke = fuck off. This list was pretty obviously compiled by someone whose frame of reference begins with 1990, with a few token nods to the absolute most famous earlier shows. To have any business writing this list, the author would need to either be in his 60's or at the very least have grown up mainlining Nick at Nite, back when they were worth a damn showed things more than 10 years old.

It's not so bad. I'm on board with the top three. The State and Ben Stiller are fairly weak examples of a genre enjoying its peak around their era, though. Picking them over Upright Citizens Brigade, Mr. Show, or even KitH is dubious.

Fuck Friends, get that shit out of here. Everything else is fine I guess. Maybe I'm too easily impressed but I think the recent string of amazing comedies that have completely left the sitcom behind are funnier than anything that's come before.
