currently, not necessarily in order

1. It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
2. The Office
3. 30 Rock
4. How I Met Your Mother
5. Family Guy

If I'm talking all-time, Seinfeld and The Simpsons would probably bump off HIMYM and Family Guy

Man, I know you really like it, and you're entitled to your opinion, but The Big Bang Theory? If you're talking about today, then I don't really care either way, but there's a lot of past comedies that you've got to give some respect to over The Big Bang Theory.

I would say, if a current show is going to be included on this list, it has to be either the Simpsons or the Office.

Found this list of top 50:  http://television.aol.com/insidetv/2008/04/01/best-tv-comedies/

Their top 15:

#1 - The Simpsons
#2 - Seinfeld
#3 - All in the Family
#4 - The Mary Tyler Moore Show
#5 - Cheers
#6 - MASH
#7 - The Cosby Show
#8 - Roseanne
#9 - I Love Lucy
#10 - Friends
#11 - The Honeymooners
#12 - The Larry Sanders Show
#13 - The Bob Newhart Show
#14 - The Office
#15 - Fraiser

Tough to really argue with much of the list.

I would definitely put Seinfeld and The Cosby Show somewhere in my top 5... and then it's tough for me, because I don't want to overrate current shows that I find hilarious like The Office.

Here's my list

Cheers
Soap

(current shows:  Two & Half Men and How I Met Your Mother are also f'n hysterical, but they need longevity to make the list)
