My chance to shine.
Red Dwarf (maybe not the last season)
Blackadder
Green Wing
Black Books
League of Gentlemen
Red vs blue
Dad's Army
Futurama
And that's all I can think of at the moment.

EDIT:The Vicor of Dibly isn't bad either.

I'm partial to How I Met Your Mother and Big Bang Theory at the moment. The former is a hybrid of Seinfeld/Friends that actually works very well, in large part due to Neil Patrick Harris. And the second is actually surprisingly respectful of geeks. They're the only sitcoms I watch these days.
This post is...
legen...wait for it...-DARY!

Also, in order of my partialness to the series:

South Park
Futurama
American Dad
early Simpsons
Family Guy (before season 7)

Go for Malcolm in the Middle.

I give the show high marks for breaking the standard sit-com formula and for achieving a high level of originality.

Oh, and its basically the opposite of Two and a Half Men.

Monty Pythons Flying Circus.

Ripping yarns wasn't bad either. You'd have to get them on dvd or something though because I don't think it's shown any more.

You need to watch It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

Its one of the funniest shows I've ever seen.

By far the funniest show I've seen in YEARS.

The fact that The Venture Bros. has not been mentioned yet is absolutely criminal. By far the best cartoon in existence, and season 4 starts in just over a month!

I hate most television shows in general, buuut Arrested Development was pure genius. It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia is ridiculously funny. A friend of of mine recently turned me to Curb Your Enthusiasm; this show is excellently written, but it's on HBO.

...I don't know though, if you think Matt Groening's recent works are funny, it shouldn't be too difficult to make you laugh.

Chuck is an action/comedy/drama(to a much lesser extent than the action and comedy) show that more people need to watch.

No one's mentioned The Boondock's? I don't know, I thought it was funny. Every line from Uncle Ruckus is pure gold.
