I have seen every episode probably three or four times, ( I put it on when I'm making dinner) and some of the lines STILL make me LOL.

Dougal, we are NOT watching "Aliens!"
So, that's our plan? Another Mass?
That would be an ecumenical matter. Yes.
Yes. I have sheep tea.
Meals are at eleven, one, half-two, three, five, seven, and nine, and if you want a quick snack, you can just ask Mrs. Doyle there.
God, Ted, I heard about those cults. Everyone dressing in black and saying our Lord's gonna come back and judge us all!
No, Dougal, that's us. That's Catholicism.

16. Does it have to have a laugh track and a three sided stage set to qualify? |
|
Edited on Thu Jun-05-08 12:52 PM by PeterU
If so, I think Seinfeld ranks near or at the top.
I also thoroughly enjoyed The King of Queens, Coach and Wings.
If it goes beyond the traditional sitcom, I'd put in my vote for Arrested Development, which was just flat out genius. And The Office is up there too.

31. Two of mine don't have laugh tracks |
|
Malcolm and Corner Gas, but they are definitely sitcoms.
For some reason I didn't even think of The Office, which I love.
