American TV Comedy

Meet Chuck Bartowski. He's your run of the mill computer whiz working for Buy-More with his equally nerdy friends all while longing for the woman of his dreams. But Chuck's average life is suddenly turned upside down when an old friend, who happens to work for the CIA, sends Chuck a mysterious e-mail and the world's closely-kept spy secrets are embedded in Chuck's brain. Now Chuck has unwittingly become the government's most powerful weapon and the fate of both the country and the world now lie in his hands. A Buy More day job and saving the world are all in a day's work for Chuck.
Chuck is put under the protection of two rival intelligence operatives, Sarah Walker and Colonel John Casey. They're forced to work together and keep Chuck alive while taking him on assignments where his unique knowledge can prove useful on missions. Sarah has to stay close to Chuck by pretending to be his girlfriend. Meanwhile, Chuck has to keep his secrets from best friend and co-worker Morgan Grimes, and his concerned sister Ellie Bartowski.

Classic comedy about the men (and women) who drove the hacks in New York City. There was aspiring actor Bobby Wheeler (Jeff Conaway), former boxer Tony Banta (Tony Danza), single mother Elaine Nardo (Marilu Henner), spaced out Reverend Jim Ignatowski (Christopher Lloyd), and level headed Alex Reger (Judd Hirsch). The drivers were joined at the Sunshine Cab Company by eccentric mechanic Latka Gravas (Andy Kaufman) and nasty dispatcher Louie DiPalma (Danny DeVito). Taxi aired for five laugh-filled seasons. The first four were on ABC after which the show switched networks for a final season on NBC.

The Golden Girls is centered around a Miami-based quartet of live-in friends, proving that life can begin at 50. It follows the highs and lows, dates and disasters of the oversexed Blanche; the ever so-slightly-dotty Rose; the dry, cynical Dorothy; and her scheming Sicilian mother Sophia.
The four roommates come together in 1985 and we learn that each one is uniquely different from the other. Each girl adds their own brand of sarcasm to the Miami home. Dorothy has her stiff necked attitude and shows her intelligence over the other girls. Rose brings her naivety in her childlike manner. Blanche showing that even at her age, that she can be sexy. Sophia bringing stories of the past and keeping up with the other girls.

Liz Lemon (Tina Fey) is the head writer for a frenetic television variety show in New York City, The Girlie Show. Liz is living every writer's dream until she's thrown off track when a new network president Jack Donaghy (Alec Baldwin) begins to interfere with the show and has Tracy Jordan (Tracy Morgan), an unpredictable movie star, join the cast. Now, Liz has to manage the chaos and run a successful TV show so her dream can go on.

Nothing? Seinfeld is a show about everything! It's about the appeal of the posse and coma etiquette. It's about importing and exporting. It's about sneaking a peek, and seeing the baby. It's about this, that, and the other. TV Guide ranked Seinfeld the best TV series of all time. It has become the master of its syndication domain. Its most devoted fans can quote each episode chapter and verse; their absorption of each scene's minutiae anything but a trivial pursuit. With such fervent devotion to the show, and demand for its DVD release, series creators Jerry Seinfeld and Larry David could have easily just OK'd a bare-bones set containing nothing but the episodes. Not that there would have been anything wrong with that, but instead, the creative team came together to create extensive and encyclopedic features that make this four-disc set buy-worthy. The candid and revealing audio commentaries and interviews, deleted scenes and original episode promos, and optional "Notes About Nothing" pop-ups are as irresistible as a Drake's coffee cake.

Frasier is the successful "Cheers" spin-off about the character Dr. Frasier Crane. After many years spent at the "Cheers" bar, Frasier (Kelsey Grammer) moves back home to Seattle after his policeman father Martin Crane (John Mahoney) gets shot in the hip on duty. After Martin struggles with living alone after the incident, he moves in with Frasier in his luxury apartment at the Elliot Bay Towers along with his dog Eddie (played by Moose and later Enzo). Hired by Frasier, Daphne Moon (Jane Leeves) also moves in as Martin's personal physiotherapist. Also living nearby is his younger brother Niles Crane (David Hyde Pierce), who is also a Psychiatrist.

How I Met Your Mother is a comedy about Ted (Josh Radnor) and how he fell in love. When Ted's best friend, Marshall (Jason Segal, Freaks and Geeks), decides to propose to his long-time girlfriend, Lily (Alyson Hannigan, Buffy the Vampire Slayer), Ted realizes that time may be running out on finding the love of his life. His friend Barney (Neil Patrick Harris, Doogie Howser MD) is the anti-Marshall, a guy who thinks he knows everything about meeting women and isn't afraid to tell you. Ted first meets Robin (Cobie Smulders, Veritas the Quest), and he believes that she is the woman for him. Soon he realizes that he may not be right after all. Bob Saget (Full House) narrates the story with voiceovers as we follow along flashbacks from the future when he is telling his children the story of how he met their mother.

Charlie is a well-to-do bachelor with a house at the beach, a Jaguar in the front, and an easy way with women. His casual Malibu lifestyle is interrupted when his tightly wound brother Alan, who's facing a divorce, and his son Jake, come to live with him. Together, these two and a half men confront the challenges of growing up; finally. Complicating matters are the brothers' self-obsessed, controlling mother, Evelyn, Alan's estranged wife, Judith and Charlie's crazy neighbor Rose, who wants to be a part of his life and is willing to do anything to be around.

Having earned a reputation as one of television's most well-written, funny and thoughtful sitcoms, Mad About You continues the tales of Paul and Jamie Buchman (Paul Reiser, Academy Award-winner Helen Hunt) trying their best in a very complicated world to be in love, to be married...and now to have a family. While the series still focuses on the Buchman couple, the birth of baby daughter Mabel in a highly-rated, much-acclaimed episode has caused Paul and Jamie to learn new things about themselves. Mad About You has long succeeded in relating the pinnacles, plateaus and pitfalls of marriage, effectively portraying a couple madly in love, while they experience the urbane, the inane, the mundane, and the profound. Their foibles delight viewers as they watch -- and relate to -- the couple buying a sofa, celebrating an unwanted birthday, discovering an aphrodisiac, finding a lost wedding ring, arbitrating meddling parents, falling apart and staying together. The series also has seen Paul and Jamie reflecting back and looking forward to the very real events of meeting for the first time, getting engaged, preparing for a wedding, experiencing the threat of separation, making up, being pregnant, having a baby, and now raising a family.

Everybody Loves Raymond is a sitcom about Ray Barone and his wife, Debra, as they face Ray's parents, Frank and Marie, and his brother Robert too. Ray must juggle his three children, a sports columnist job, his wife, and his parents without going insane first!

Ellen, which debuted under the title "These Friends of Mine", followed the misadventures of Ellen Morgan (Ellen Degeneres), a thirty-something bookstore employee who has to deal with the comedic ups and downs that come her way, as well as her overbearing parents, Harold (recurring guest star Steven Gilborn) and Lois (recurring guest star Alice Hirson). But with help from her close friends, Paige (Joely Fisher); Adam (Arye Gross), an insecure photographer; Joe (David Anthony Higgins), the big-egoed coffee shop guy; her self-conscious cousin Spence (Jeremy Piven); and the obnoxious, yet lovable Audrey (Clea Lewis), Ellen is able to make it through the insanity she calls life.
