Who doesn’t need a good laugh in such a hustle bustle of every day’s life? Switch off your thoughts and switch on the laughter with these comedy series. There are a few on this list which is my absolute favorite and I can tell you the dialogues from each episode because I have already watched these million times. It never gets old and I never get bored watching these.
I am little too old-fashioned when it comes to comedy. Profanity, trolling or offensive content doesn’t hold my interest at all. Offensive part can be debatable, given the current situation in our country (see what I did there). For me, anything that can make someone feel bad about themselves is not worth my laughter. I am sure few of these you have already watched but if you haven’t then you must and I assure you, it will be well worth your time as well as laughter:
F.R.I.E.N.D.S
This is not just a comedy series, it drives emotions in people. From cafes to merchandise, this series made such an impact on people that everything from this series became our favorite. “Joey doesn’t share food” to “Smelly cat, smelly cat…” each dialogue became a part of our conversation. For me, I fell in love with Chandler and Monica’s love story.
From each season to the next one our love for the series grew stronger. I don’t how many viewers cried in the last episode when that door was locked but I sure as hell did. I have made it a point in my head that my little one will watch this series too so we have more topics to talk about in her teenage (#momsplanningneverends). It definitely tops my recommendation list.
How I Met Your Mother
Okay, so I watched this series after watching friends and thought it is not that fun. But boy, was I wrong. Ted Mosby is just too damn adorable to not get your interest and then who can stay away from the charm of Barney Stinson. I dreamt of finding a guy who would steal a blue horn for me. Life didn’t disappoint me but that is a topic for some other time.
Lilly and Marshall are one of the cutest, funny and extremely entertaining couples I have seen in any series. Barney’ stints with women and then hopelessly falling in love with Robin made me laugh and gush at the same time. Watch it with your partner and make your weekend’s all the more fun.
Sarabhai VS Sarabhai
This Indian sitcom was and is one of my all-time favorites. Who can forget mummy ji’s so “LS” comments on her daughter-in-law’s choice or Rosesh poems? Indravadan Sarabhai and his wife Maya is a couple that is relatable and funny. If you are a fan sarcasm like me then you have to listen to the dialogues of Indravadan Sharma.
Their older son Sahil and his wife Manisha live in the apartment across the hallway. Much of the humor is derived from the fake, artificial and shallow interactions among the city’s elite and their perceived notions of the shortcomings and failings of middle-class society (Source: Wikipedia)
Bing Bang Theory
This one is on the list majorly because it is one of the very few series which I and my better half enjoy equally. Sheldon Cooper, you have my heart. He is a person who can make Pictionary one of the most difficult games in the world but in his head, it is as easy as reading alphabets. Understanding human emotions are difficult for him (who can blame him, humans are difficult to understand) but he is hopelessly in love with a girl named Amy. The theme song is so catchy that it stays in your head for a really long time. Rajesh Koothrapali our home is killing the game in the series with side-parted extra oiled hair.
Two Broke Girls
Two girls from the different financial background are planning to make a mark in the baking business and both are poles apart from each other yet so similar in their behavior. The contrast of the characters in the series is what brings the laughter. The two work together at a Brooklyn diner, soon becoming roommates and friends while building toward their dream of one day opening a cupcake shop. Max and Caroline are each other’s biggest support system. Another fun series from Warner Bros.
This one is last in the list because few of the seasons are real but few let me down in the laughter meter. Watch it and let me know if you too think the same or different.
There are so many wonderful comedy series that I am yet to watch if you know any interesting one then don’t forget to drop a message in the comment section.
I’m taking my blog to take the next level with #MyFriendAlexa with Blogchatter.
This is a fantastic post… I hope I get sufficiently helpful! Keep it up. Superb..

That’s sounds like great suggestions. #myfriendalexa
Awesome list Kavita I quite like How I met your mother still and Sarabhai vs Sarabhai
Thanks for these suggestions, I am going to add these comedy series to my watchlist. Except for Friends, I haven’t watched any of the these.
Except How I met your mother I agree with all the others. Friends – I can recite dialogues in my sleep! TBBT, I used to watch on Tv so haven’t watched all seasons but I love it! Sheldon steals the show always. Two Broke Girls is hilarious. Again haven’t seen all episodes but I like it a lot. Sarabhai vs Sarabhai – unfortunately seen only a few but found them very funny so plan to watch the whole series.
Can I suggest a few? The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Working Moms and Hum Paanch, Dekh Bhai Dekh, Tu Tu Main main and Shriman Shrimati (childhood favorites).
I couldn’t agree more. These are actually top five pics for me too.
I was glad to see that I’ve watched all of these series and indeed they are a go-to whenever I need to lighten up a little. And needless to say, my all time favorite is F.R.I.E.N.D.S!
I am a huge friends fan! Also now can anybody not love sarabhai! Amazing list.

Comedy is better than the crying serials and films with fights. I prefer senthil-goundamani, vadidelu, jagathy comedies.
Just finished watching friends last month… Can’t seem to get over it..
Reminds me so Much if hostel days. # damurureads
Friends is my all time favourite. How I Met Your Mother would be next. These are ever green shows
Big Bang theory is my favorite – we keep watching reruns of that. Friends are also great. In Indian comedy series i loved Sarabhai vs Sarabhai

Friends,Big bang, and two Broke Girls are my favourite. But friends is a classic. I can re-watch everytime I find friends scheduled.
Sarabhbhai vs Sarabhbhai has been my all time favourite. I watch the web series alsoI relive those tv episode days.
Now those are some great suggestions for me to watch. I personally love FRIENDS and Sarabhai Vs Sarabhai, but I’m.yet to watch the other series.
Wow, I agree these are some must watch series. For me, Sarabhai vs Sarabhai tops the list. It’s just fabulous to watch them. Have seen the top three in the series but not the last two. Will check them out.

Friends definitely is on the top my list any day. And, BBT is also one of my favs. Funny and how! I’m sad its the last season now 🙁
Thanks for sharing such a comprehensive list. FRIENDS has always been my favorite show but as I’m no longer a TV person, I didn’t know about the rest.
These are awesome series! I have watched all except for 2 broke Girls! I have to get it done in 2019
Thanks for the comprehensive list dear. Now I know what to binge watch when I get some time at my liberty.
I watched ‘Two Broke Girls’ a while ago and I have to agree, the series is hilarious! So agree with all your suggestions too. I mean, who can go wrong with F.R.I.E.N.D.S. right?
From our list, I havent watched How I Met Your Mother. FRIENDS and The Big Bang Theory are my absolute favorites and I never get tired of watching the re-runs too.
I love Young Sheldon, Two and a Half Men, Mom too!
I never watch TV but I have read & heard good reviews of all 5 series you have written about , so they must be good. Do your child watches TV series with you too ? #MyFriendAlexa #SujatawdeREeads
So happy to see that I have seen and loved all of these shows… parts of these. I never finished them but Friends, big bang theory and how I met your mother helped me laugh so much during my college days. My college days were better, in fact, due to these shows.
I really liked two broke girls… omg! the horse 😛 But i don’t think I have finished the season… will try to continue watching these. <3
Great list. I had watched Sarabhai and friends. and had a great time while waching them. will watch others too. #surbhireads
Love the list. You should check out Brooklyn 99 too. It is right up there with Friends on my personal list.
Love each of these 5! They can crack me up any day ??
except for Sarabhai I guess I need to check out the rest. I still depend on stand up comedy shows for my dose of laughter and fun.
Over the years , Jokes from “Sarabhai vs Sarabhai is still used at our home to laugh around . #myfriendalexa #fotwreads
Thats a great list and same pinch! All my favourites being Sarabhai the most loved!
I liked two broke girls. I liked the idea. However, I am yet to watch full episodes of everything mentioned here. Friends indeed is one of the best ever created.
Just finished and loved FRIENDS for the first time. Will watch HIMYM now 😀
And I just love The Big Bang Theory!
Good list of soaps – I have watched ‘Friends’ a million times 🙂 now have to catch up with the rest…
Friends and How I met your mother is on my list forever 🙁 Don’t kill me for this but yes I have not yet seen the famous series of Friends 🙁
I’m currently engrossed with Raising Hope and The Mick on Hotstar they are my favorites 🙂
#MyFriendAlexa #vigorousreads
That’s my favourite list too!
Well, I’ve watched 3 out of the 5 shows listed.
You can also add “New Girl” to your list. It’s funny too!
Brooklyn Nine Nine, Veep, Mom, Young Sheldon are good too! Also, Khichdi 😀
I agree with your list and would like to add Mom, Two and a half men and Man with a plan to the list. They are hilarious especially Mom and Two and a half men are addictive. Do watch it once and let me know your thoughts on it.
I havn’t watched Big Bang theory and two broke girls.
I think you should also include ‘two & a half men’ in the list
Let me start watching them one by one . After all a good laugh makes us healthy .
My favourites: Sarabhai vs Sarabhai and Friends. Look forward to S vs S next season.
I watch and enjoy all except 2 broke girls! They totally make my day.
Sarabhai and friends I never used to miss in my life
Friends series tops my list of fav comedy series. And for Indian series Sarabhai vs Sarabhai is good. But, I remember laughing more at Dekh bhai dekh punches as a kid. 🙂
Except two broke girls and Sarabhai, I have watched everything else. And come on! Friends has to be mentioned five times ?
Very interesting post. Unfortunately I have watched none of them. Friends and Big Bang theory is in my list from a long time.
I loved the signature part at the end of your post. Please teach me how to do that. ?
