There are so many to mention that I cant help but5 rip the piss out of this lsit.

Seinfeld, Homicide life on the street, Sex and the city (early series), Oz, The shield, Curb your enthusiasm and even a show like 24 was outstanding in the early series. No, dont think much to that list

But why though? This is based on people's individual ratings, it wasn't a list made by someone.

WHen these lists are made there are always too many modern shows/albums/films etc.

Just taking the ratings only shows what is rated right now and not what is actually the best. It makes these lists pointless unless there has actually been some thought put into the show/albums/films that appear . So, my attitude is to rip the piss.

fair enough but it's not claiming to be anything other than a list of the top rated shows voted for by viewers which is exactly what it is, that's all I'm saying

You can see from this list why humour has become extinct today.

Jokes not allowed today. We all have to be miserable instead of laughing at the World. Jokes are now seen as offensive.

I largely agree with what you're saying.

But watch Parks & Recreation, it's a funny Show that whilst yes it's Politics certainly lean towards the left, they can also do some good ribbing at Leslie's infatuation with Hilary Clinton & Joe Biden.

Comedy shows usually date very quickly and many just aren't funny a few episodes in

Also, humour doesn't tend to translate well across the world, where other genres do

You have a point on a lot of them tbf.

But I would say that Parks & Recreation is one of the best in the genre for the USA.
