Here is my list. It is my opinion on my favorites. So really, if you disagree...
Best and favorite comedy: Seinfeld
The rest are in no order: Community, early seasons of The Office, original Bob Newhart, early seasons of Scrubs, Good Place, Arrested Development, Frasier
For dramas
Justified is sooooo good.
The Americans, Longmire, Breaking Bad, NYPD Blue
I am going to leave out British shows. Hard to compare.

in order, the office, brooklyn 99, parks and recreation, the good place, community. friends is quite terrible compared to all of the above shows. there are others i havent seen, but as far as i know those are the best.
Good ones there. I would also add that I think Black-ish is very good.
The original UK "The Office" has never been bettered, much much better than the US version, and cannot really be compared to Seinfeld because even though both a re 'Sitcom' they have a totally different types of characters.
The one real thing that made me laugh, and shows the ignorance towards the UK version, was when a US interviewer asked Ricky Gervais if they 'have The Office in the UK' ...doh
Office is hard to place. S1 is just an imitation of the UK version and it was clear they had not found their footing. 8 and 9 also flounder after Michael left. That's an entire third of the show's total run that is noticeably weak. Honestly, most comedies go on too long and have a bunch of sh*tty seasons.
Best for me is a UK show-The Thick of It.

Seinfeld was great at the time. It is somewhat dated. Freinds was never even close to the Seinfeld level. The office in the Steve Carell era is definitely the best sitcom of the past 20 years.
Best show currently on TV goes to South Park. Absolutely hilarious. Absolute trailblazer that is unafraid to comment on any number of social issues. If Stone and Parker want to keep it going it will definitely go at least another decade.
Stone and Parker are two of the biggest creative geniuses of their generation.
I always felt Malcolm in the middle was underrated. Hilarious show.
Is the next season on South Park on? Because it has the potentional the most epic thing in all television history given the current events they parody.
Why has Family Matters not been mention yet? TGIF in the 90s. Appointment viewing for a young kid.

I watched the UK version first, but liked the US version better. Probably because I'm American and the US version was a bit more like a real office and more satirical, even though it was a pretty straight copy of the UK version. The UK version had more silliness and was more over th etop. Just personal taste. I get how someone might like the UK version better.
