It's clever whilst being funny (unlike some shows like TBBT), and is very deep and perceptive about human nature.

It's also bizarre and the setting is hilarious and unique.

If you like Rick and Morty, this is in the similar vein, albeit less sci-fi and wacky (and explicit).

Stargate SG1

It had the perfect mix of comedy, drama, Sci fi and charm. It went downhill when Richard Dean Anderson left but up until he left, it was fantastic and nothing has compared to it.

This is tough. I'm gonna go for The Inbetweeners because it's hilarious, easy watching and, frankly, pure genius and the epitome of modern British comedy. Honourable mentions, though:

Peep Show
Men Behaving Badly
Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps
Mr Bean
I'm Alan Partridge
Friday Night Dinner
The Simpsons
Only Fools and Horses
The Office UK
An Idiot Abroad
Spaced
Bottom

Probably missed a bunch, but those are my favourites off the top of my head.

Mine is Black-ish. It's so good. It basically illustrates the struggles and joys of being a black person particularly in America. It's so funny

Then Come Fly With Me in close second

Two days into a "favourite TV show" thread on TSR and nobody's mentioned Utopia yet? I guess I'll be the first then.

Utopia.

Chuck.

Lost and
Prison Break are also close though.
Dinnerladies.
Because it has some great characters and a great storyline. Plus you can watch it as many times as you want, but its still as hilarious as the first time.
