Not weird. Perfectly normal!
I mean, I get Two and a Half Men... but the other two? That's fucking weird!
Sorry man. I’ve tried. Just don’t find them funny or enjoyable at all.
Fair enough.

I haven't tried to watch Will & Grace in a long time.... but I do rewatch HIMYM a lot, and while I do think the show is super problematic, there's still a lot that makes me laugh. In spite of myself, to be sure, but still...

How I Met Your Mother is terrible. But I do envy those who are corny enough to enjoy it.

Will & Grace has made me laugh a few times. I really like Megan Mullally and her relationship with her maid.

HIMYM very much in the Friends camp for me of "I don't see how people laugh at this"

Two and a Half Men is just putrid

Mad TV

I gave this show so many chances in the early aughts and it never once made me laugh. The worst sketch comedy I've ever seen.

The hit rate for Monty Python is really low. If you pick and choose the best sketches it can be pretty funny, but trying to watch the actual episodes is torturous.

I do think the movies hold up pretty well, though.

Oh yeah, sketch comedy in general for me. More misses than hits, by a lot
