Funniest show on TV - Modern Family vs. 30 Rock

I like parks and rec but I don't get it being the best show out there. I actually worked in the Parks department for the City of Cleveland and a lot of the storylines are spot on.
 
Portlandia.





Not really competitor for the best show, but that show is ridiculously funny. And only a few episodes in.

What is this about? Is it safe to assume it has something to do with Mexicans (i.e. the -landia part)?

lolwut? its about portland.





as for 30 rock, that show has been pretty weak for a couple seasons. i like parks and rec the most out of that huge thursday comedy block on NBC. i heard good things about Community, and enjoyed the D&D episode (i'm a nerd), but overall i haven't loved what i've seen from it.

I figured that, but we say -landia instead of -land, which made me think it was somehow Latino-related.





Record-related example:

Out of the 2 I'd choose Modern Family.





Community is the funniest show on TV right now though.





And Big Bang Theory stinks on ice.





 
real argument would be which network does comedy the best?





F/X: Always Sunny, The League, Louie, Archer


CBS: Two and half men, how i met your mother, big bang theory


NBC: Thursday night.


Fox: Sunday night


ABC: modern family, mr sunshine, cougartown?





gotta go with F/X as far as quality, NBC as far as quantity. i'll sit and watch 4 out of the 6 shows on thursday night.

this should count now that it's regularly shown on IFC - and bc any other comedy on tv is its son.
 
every season is on netflix instant view also. i'm on season 2. never watched this show before, but yes seems to have some major influence on many current shows
