Yes, that probably belongs.

Yes, that probably belongs. For some reason, I considered it more of an action film, but its at least as much of a comedy as Forrest Gump.

My favroite in this is

In reply to Bonus) The following comedies

My favroite in this is probably Beverly Hills Cop. My least favorite by far is Meet the Fockers.

In addition to Beverly Hills Cop, Austin Powers, Wedding Crashers, Back to the Future are great.

Forrest Gump and Men in Black are solid.

Mrs. Doubtfire and Bruce Almighty are passable, but belong nowhere near the top comedies of all time.

I'm going with Genghis. His

In reply to 10) Finally, and most

I'm going with Genghis. His sarahpalingrrrl is a riot. And his satirical posts are very funny. Mortimus is a close second.

That is correct. The answer

In reply to 9) Are farts funny?

That is correct. The answer is no. Real farts are not funny. The Whoopee cushion tho is hilarious...

This is tougher than I

In reply to 8) Name the four funniest SNL

This is tougher than I thought - but I'll go Belushi in the 70s (Murray runner up), Murphy in the 80s (Hartman distant runner-up), Carvey in the 90s (Farley a close second, and Myers not too far off that), and Farrell in the 00s (hes really mostly 90s but i dont have a favorite right now).

I didnt really watch enough of the News in the early years, so I'm not sure if i can judge properly, but I really loved Norm McDonald.

MASH. Cheers. Simpsons. South

In reply to 7) I think we can all agree -

MASH. Cheers. Simpsons. South Park. Happy Days. Married With Children. Friends. Jeffersons. Frasier. Murphy Brown. king of the Hill.

Quinn is right, Elf wins ...

In reply to 6) Every holiday season, it's

Quinn is right, Elf wins ... Christmas Story is a close second. the worst (at least the first one coming to mind, I'm sure I've seen worse) is the one with Sinbad ... I'm too lazy to even look the name up right now, but i believe he's searching for a toy in it (Ah-nuld was in it, too).

Acanuck is right. Jay Leno

Deadman — Sun, 18 Jan 2009 17:07:18 +0000

In reply to 5) Which one of these doesn't

Acanuck is right. Jay Leno doesn't belong because he is not funny, gives awful monologues and is an even worse interviewer.

4a) I've seen it about two

In reply to 4) For the last week of 2008,

4a) I've seen it about two and a half times. Exactly two and a half times too many. It literally revels in indulging in everything that is wrong about the sitcom format.

4b) A tie between 30 Rock and The Office. Both incredibly funny and innovative. followed closely by Family Guy.

4c) It doesn't bother me. I'm sure he's single-handedly supporting the Southern California sex worjkers community.

Full House, of course. I

Full House, of course. I can't get enough of Dave 'Cut...it..out!' Coulier! no seriously, please waterboard me.
