As for what's currently running, I was drawn to and watched the first two episodes of Mr Mayor yesterday and will likely continue. It's pretty silly but i like the dynamics.
Hey LuC, thanks for mentioning Mr. Mayor, that show is hilarious, I love it! I'm all caught up. Lighton: I think you mean here https://forum.next-episode.net/viewtopic.php?id=10291

Love Ted Lasso, it's a plucky British/American underdog soccer comedy with heart. General themes are about moving forward and overcoming your past. Jason Sudekis anchors it well. I'd say B- level production. Ensemble cast. Character stories make me want to keep watching. I really enjoy it. Never heard of The Crew until today.
Thanks buddy - appreciated.
Brothers! What we do in life...Echoes in Eternity!

Re: Looking for a good comedy
I was thinking of starting a discussion thread for Mr. Mayor, but I just found out it only had 9 episodes, and is already over, which is so disappointing, because I was just getting into this story. I wish they had more writers and bigger budgets to produce more episodes. If anyone out there is looking for a silly comedy, watch Mr. Mayor. This sort of thing goes to prove my point that it doesn't seem like I watch much TV, but I do, it's just the seasons are so short, that I never get invested in anything.

Re: Looking for a good comedy
Finished watching Cunk On Earth, it was great, only did not like the last episode. Too many missed opportunities with orcs and almost made them sound sane, plus English speakers should give up using their language, the expert is wrong, Sputnik does not mean a traveler in Orcish, it literally means "a satellite" or secondary, rather rarely used meaning -"somebody who accompanies you" in a broad sense. Including if "travelling" is to a toilet.

Re: Looking for a good comedy
Yes, but I'll check the IMDb rating a week after it aired before I try watching it.

I don't even have time to watch everything where I'm sure I'll enjoy it, so I need to filter the rest.

Re: Looking for a good comedy
For comedies IMDb rating not always reflect the quality, since the general population are either too dumb to understand references/logic of epic jokes, are offended by them or simply have a shitty sense of humor. For example, this marvel has rating just 7.8: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0460619/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJ0eWm5PxkU

Re: Looking for a good comedy
Sure, stuff like that happens, but why do you say "just" 7.8? That video is funny, yes, but 7.8 looks about right.

Re: Looking for a good comedy
I'm saying just 7.8, because I don't remember even half of comedies I have seen, but remember most of Lucky Louie stuff. It's a solid metric how great something is And then there is also the opposite - 8+ for lame jokes shows.

As it's said in IMDb reviews: "One of the most hilarious sitcoms ever". Also, fun fact, in a couple episodes is Emma Stone before she became a superstar. haha, from IMDb
Brilliant - but too obscene for prissy yanks.
