No, Seinfeld was actually funny.

Time is a funny thing. There is always too much of it, except when you need it the most. Then there is never enough.

I also wondered the Op's question and put a reminder in my diary in 20 years time to see which show stood the test of time better.

I suspect Friends will given that even now, when I watch s1-10, it's still funny and relevant.

Neither of those

Closest is probably the office.

Unfortunately yes, it seems so.

It won't stop me from disliking it though.

Yep, while I agree that The Office is a better example, TC listed two different shows. So it only seems fair that we list two different shows for this generation as well. So I'd say our two are The Office and... Big Bang Theory (ugh).

If people have forgotten about it then it can't be our version of Seinfeld/Friends.

Probably the Office and Parks and Rec. They're the most memed modern sitcoms. How often do anyone post anything from Big Bang Theory without making fun of it?

BBT is more like friends. Generic soccer mom tv.

The Office is more like Seinfeld in that they're both actually funny.

You're such a boring characterless entity. Try getting laid once in a while and maybe you'll have friends and find out what a "joke" is. - derrate

Which is also why Friends doesn't count.

New girl is good but its definitely not up there with classic sitcoms

Also Jess is pretty unlikable and the show gets way better the more it focuses on the guys
