Some friends and I decided to do a snake draft of TV comedies

>A snake draft is a fantasy sports draft format where the selection order reverses every round, creating a "snake" pattern (1-10, then 10-1, and so on). This ensures fairness by balancing the advantage of early picks in round one with the advantage of consecutive picks in later rounds.

The rules were basically as follows

>Talk shows are draftable
>No comedy specials or shows where it's explicitly just comedians on stage telling jokes. Chappelle's Show features him telling jokes but the focus is the sketch comedy
>No specials like one offs or annual events like The Academy Awards
>No minimum or maximum time limit
>No cartoons. Some animation is ok but the focus is on the live action
>No kids or children's shows like iCarly. Something like the eventual choice of Pee-Wee's Playhouse was put up to a vote
>For shows with a US and UK or other foreign version like The Office just clarify which one if needed. Same with shows that had an original run then a reboot.
>Something like The Sopranos wasn't draftable as the drafters decided it was more crime/drama than a comedy and wasn't in the spirit of the draft
>Anything questionable was put up to a vote

Please vote on who had the best draft via the strawpoll link

Who the fuck picks Fraiser?

#1 is 60 years old

Its impossible to vote for any of them. You got some good shows but without fail each of these drafts contains at least one show thats so unfunny I want to kill them.

im not really sure what were supposed to be rating them on but 10 hits the best mix of stuff that has mainstream popularity and what i find funny

Who acquired the best list. It's not rocket science

>>220420300
Are we supposed to guess which one of your friends is a closeted homosexual? Cause it's #9

>Who acquired the best list
"best" by what standards though?
>>
Only the first two series of Flying Circus are any good.
>>
>>220420869
Your standards. Which list do you prefer the most. Do you like a list that has certified classics like Cheers or I Love Lucy? What about ones that are well rounded with sitcoms, sketch shows, etc? What about ones that tried to encapsulate a bunch of different eras? What about ones that went international?

Which list is your favorite?
>>
>>220420300
10 wins
I'm not doing your dumb strawpoll
>>
>>220420300
Oh look, its the guy who insists Yellow is the same as Red and Blue. Why are you on every board I post on? Why are you stalking me? I can't reason with people like you, 'People always thought Red and Blue was the same as Yellow'. Poppycock. I dont understand why people lie to me. Lets see what you've done this time. OK How is late night considered a comedy? Its adult talk show. Your entire draft is a farce. It stands upon a bed of lies. The fact that it has jokes has nothing to do with the CONTENT of the show. Why is this so hard for you people to understand, I'm actually fuming.

>>220421015
>Jokes
>Witty banter
>Comedy sketches

Sounds like a comedy show to me
>>
3 is definitely a pompous snobby fag about comedy
>>
>>220420300
3 isr eally funyn. haha would love to watch a movie with him or her maybe slinal tap or bill and ted. or the. pest
>>
>>220421195
No, I honestly get what you are coming from but its a completely different type of show. Laughing does not equal comedy. Without getting political, nothing about those shows is witty, its propaganda. Please use critical thinking, this isnt comedy.

>>220420300
fuck off faggot

if i wanted to glaze an attentionfag i would use reddit

>drafts That Mitchell and Webb Look
>nobody drafts Peep Show
>>
>>220420300
How did none of you manage to overlap? Oh it was a draft.. so it doesn't necessarily represent actual preferences

Is that a young Brie Larson??
>>
>>220422243
Yeah. The struggle/drama is drafting good shit but not reaching. Everyone laughed at the Frasier pick because while undoubtedly worthy of being drafted, 1.04 was just way too high. When do you take That 70's Show? When do you take some British show?
>>
>>220422580
those shows are subversive woke gobbledygook. five, four and nine stand on top for appreciating the true classics.
>>
4 ran away with it. I am not sure what 8 is doing, why does he/she draft like someone from Nebraska
>>
>>220423113
>MASH wasn't woke gobbledygook
You are genuinely retarded.
>>
>>220420300
how did nobody draft Peep Show or New Girl? Ya'll taking Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell and anime over both of those?

In order
10- Hes got the two best shows on the list and Ted Lasso is a solid worst pick. Hes uour smartest friend tight?
2- First 4 are great so second
6- Strong 3rd, this man likes his peaks and foesnt mind the valleys
3>7>8>1>4>9>5
Eric Andre show is solid though, but everything else?
