In my opinion the best two british comedies of the last decade
Seen a few episodes, its ok but there are better shows.
It's catchy theme song can get stuck in my head though.

I don't go out of my way to watch it; but if I'm at work and it comes on, it's an hour I'm being paid to watch it I can't complain.
i actually fair like the show, being one of the only 2 shows i watch on comedy central (the others scrubs) but i know people who either dont like it or just dont watch it. but people shouldnt force it on people who dont like it and people shouldnt tell people who do like it that they shouldnt, its just a matter of "each to their own"
I used to really like it but now it's really meh. Now I'm totally into The Big Bang Theory. Best show on tv for nerds.
It really depends on what you class as a sitcom. By it's broadest definition Situation Comedy could take in CSI Miami, House, Dexter...all of which are good.Julianking93 said:
For actual funny programmes, How I Met Your Mother, Chuck, A Town Called Eureka, The Big Bang, The IT Crowd, It?s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, The Big Bang Theory, 30Rock?
But yes, Two and a half men is a stagnant pool of jarate based solely on the tired stereotype that men are just big kids.
It's funny to watch if I feel like watching a quick show and nothing else is on. It's definitely better than all those crappy adult cartoons like Family Guy, American Dad, etc. But I don't really like the newer episodes. It just seems like they keep doing the same thing. Charlie Sheen gets a girl, things get complicated, his brother whines about his wife or something, and the kid is a failure. They have a couple good jokes, but the show isn't something to write home about.
Good sitcoms? How I Met Your Mother is one of the funniest shows I've seen in years. I love it. Usually laugh tracks put me off of shows, like on that crap-fest called The Big Bang Theory, but I don't even notice it on this one. It's like a modern Friends combined with That 70's Show. All of the characters are likable and relatable to me.
Modern Family is a good one, too.
The Office is disgusting now... I still watch it because I want to see what goes on with the characters. But the show was progressively inching its way to the Cliff of Bad Shows and this season it just leapt right off the end and landed in the spike pit.

Just going to point out that I completely agree with you. And whether or not you think the same of South Park, I definitely do. I'm baffled at the fact that so many people that think of themselves as the most intellectual people in the world love this show. Talk about lowest common denominator in reference to Two and a Half Men all you want, but Family Guy guns for that audience twice as hard.Zeithri said:
Two and a Half Men manages to achieve soemthing quite amazing in that while it makes me laugh regularly (about once every 10 minutes) I feel guilty every time for finding such "humor" funny. I consider it nothing more than the absolubte lowest of rubbish and have regularly left the room and twice the house to avoid watching it.
Funny story. Two and a Half Men used to be my favorite TV show, but it has simply aired too long.
On cracked.com, there is an article about the life of a TV show, stating every season after 5 gets increasing worse, and after 7 effectively canceling out a good season. Through the entire read, I couldn't help but think of Two and a Half Men.
So to sum it up, I loved it, but it's more annoying than anything else now.

You are entitled to your own opinion.Zeithri said:
There is NOTHING likable about that show to YOU, and that's the point. What you are saying is completely subjective, so I see no point in discussing this any further with you.
I say orange, you say apple.
I agree with the OP, I think it's garbage. I don't think it has ever once made me laugh. And the difference between Two and Half Men and Family Guy is really very simple: Family Guy is actually funny.
