Best 80s comedy?

[Provost Harrison]

I was talking about the relevance of the picture to Gordon Kaye being involved in a serious accident

[Donegeal]

I thought yolu were talking about Ted Striker (lingerie + "Ted" = Ted Striker)

Ah. I didn't know that. But I just learned from searching for pics of Helga that Carmen Silvera died No more need for cheese in my ears

[Winston]

Mondale.

Ooh! Ahh, my stomach hurts.

Was All in the Family back in the 70s? Mary Tyler Moore show was great too, Ted Baxter kicks butt. I liked 3s Company when Don Knotts joined the cast. I liked the Jeffersons, but Good Times got too preachy and lost the Dyno-Mite. Sherman Hemsley and the maid were a great combo to come out of that even greater combo of Archie and Meathead

80s that I can remember

WKRP in Cincinatti the scene where Less Nessman is reporting on the Thanksgiving turkeys falling to the ground after being shoved out a plane is
Barney Miller the hashish laced brownies episode was
Taxi the hashish laced Latka's Cookies was Danza asks Alex Reger if he wants a coffee and instead of bringing a coffee Danza picks this big coffee dispenser up, brings it to him and walks
away
Cheers
Mash

Seinfeld (best to date by a significant lead)

[Frozzy]

Hueij: You'll notice René has a rather large scar/dent on his forehead in later episodes. That's why.

[Kontiki]

Hmmm...

70s - Fawlty Towers
80s - Cheers
90s - Seinfeld

[Tiamat]

Always liked Yes, Minister it just didn't run to long over here. Blackadder Fawlty Towers, to bad they only made 12 was quite funny.

So are we talking 80's in America or UK?

You didn't even mention the two funniest episodes from Taxi:

"Wwwwwhhhhaaaattttttt dooooeeesssss aaaaaa Yeeeellllllooooowwwww Liiiigghhhtttt Meeeaaaaannnnnn?"

"Slow down."

The Episode where Jim has a premonition that Alex will die at 7 pm on thursday while wearing a catchers mask and doing the can-can.

Not to mention the episode where Jim goes with Elaine to the concert then the formal party afterwords.....

ACK!

[Frasier looking in Lilith's purse]

Lilith: Whatever happens, I only hope I can realize my full potential. To acquire things the old Lilith never had.
Carla: Like a body temperature?
Lilith: That's very good, Carla. Incidentally, I've taken your little wisecracks for a few years now, you hideous gargoyle, and if you ever open that gateway to hell you call a mouth in my direction again, I'll snap off your extremities like dead branches and feed them to you at gunpoint.
