    1st season of Archer was brilliantly funny and addictive. 2nd season was slightly less and I quit watching after a huge fall off in the third season.

    Not it a big fan of rom-com's. The only one I'm watching consistently now is Santa Clarita Diet which is funny but more entertaining than it is lol funny.

    For me (as I said in the other thread) Ray Romano is the most unwatchable actor on the planet. Even his interviews are vomit inducing. It all follows one lifelong unfunny joke. That his wife runs him into the ground and he has no say or control over his own life.

    LOL @ Everybody Loves Raymond. You can't get anymore pathetic than that show.

    I watched Broad City a few times. That was a funny show.

    I thought "Everybody Loves Raymond" was ok. Peter Boyle was fucking great in it.

    Not that i saw a lot of episodes but for me I only found the scenes with the parents amusing.

    Ray and the wife were too much like so many other sitcom couples. Husband is a wimpy whiner who is scared to make his (almost always right) wife angry.

    I agree. The parents (and the brother too) were the most funny. I get what you are saying about Ray being a whimp. But I thought it was funny how immature he was.

    Broad City is pretty funny. A little out there.

    People talk about it being some sort of feminist show, but I never even thought about that.
