I would like to buy or download a new comedy series but can't find any.
We quite like 30 Rock, Curb Your Enthusiasm or Modern Family, that type if thing.
Any suggestions?

Go on 4OD.
Just start looking through them...
Garth Merengue's 'Dark Place' as a starter.
BBC - 15 Stories High

if you like those then try Arrested Development - direct line from that to 30 Rock and Modern Family
Larry Sanders is available on DVD now and is an absolute classic

So sitcom/ comedy drama rather than sketch shows? Best I've seen in a long time is Misfits on E4 / Channel 4, you'll prob find the first series on 4OD, second series coming up next month.

I'll second Arrested Development. Not entirely sure about comedy but breaking bad and weeds are also very good.

Peep show and Inbetweeners

Inbetweeners, way past the knuckle at times, but I think it's ace. Strangeley my Mother in law (62) watches it too and loves it. I see her in a different light now!

Trailer Park Boys.
If you don't laugh watching this, then you're clinically dead:

Eastbound and down is good,
Most of the others above I've loved too, especially Breaking Bad.
Mad Men whilst strictly not comedy always entertains and raises a few laughs.

Rev, I think it was called, was on late on BBC2 a few months ago. Brilliant, Father Ted in Realism.

That 70's Show
Simply awesome

Trailer park boys is brilliant.
Big Bang Theory however is not. It's just a SLIGHT (and I mean slight) re-hash of every single US sitcom since Taxi. Even the characters correspond.
Some of the gags are ok but please, for the love of God THINK OF A DIFFERENT FORMAT!

If you like Modern Family, check out The Middle.

Spaced?

I'm a fan of Big Bang Theory too!
On a side note that isn't comedy (though quite amusing sometimes)...WATCH Dexter!

American DadNot new but all worth watching

How about Seinfeld it has Larry David's ideas before he recycled them in Curb your enthusiasm. A bit unfair as I do love Curb.

how about an ozzy one called Wilfred

best comedy on tv in recent times is....the thick of it
bbc 2 comedy about the goverment will have you crying

Based on your list... US version of The Office. Once you get over it being a copy of the UK version its actually pretty funny and takes it in a new direction. Loads of episodes, too.

Green Wing +100000, best comedy by far
Posted 1 year ago # -
I have just started to watch The Inbetweeners, cant stand any of the American 'so called' comedies.

Simon Amstel's comedy "Grandma's house" is brilliant too, was on a few months ago.

Thanks to this thread i've just found the 2 series of 'Chelmsford 123' on 4OD.
Been trying to get it on DVD for ages but apparently it was never released. Still funny (i had a nasty feeling it may not have aged well). Never looked at 4OD before but it's stopped me doing anything so far today as i've watched the first 3 episodes.

yes
forgot about Eastbound and Down - excellent
and US office is very good too - ITV2 were showing it for a while but seem to have stopped. Anyone know if its coming back/ on another channel?
