i think the best dramas have a lot of good subtle comedy worked in these days. but yeah, there's very little good shows that go under the comedy label. i only watch Louie, Maron, Silicon Valley and Veep. they all just wrapped up :gomez:

I enjoy Silicon Valley, Archer and I think Brooklyn Nine-Nine shows a lot of promise.

Rick and Morty is the greatest thing ever. Everyone should go watch it right now.

That's a CBS late night joke if I ever heard one.

If this is just a list thread, then
Mad Men is still as good as (better than?) ever, I don't know what the detractors are talking about.
Louie is a masterpiece. Dumb word, but I mean it.
True Detective was something special.
Halt and Catch Fire is pretty tremendous so far, IMO.

And there are a shit ton of shows that are worth watching-Sons of Anarchy (last season should have been 60 min not 90 min episodes), Wilfred, Walking Dead, Game of Thrones, Orange is the New Black, Justified, The Americans, Silicon Valley, on and on.
