Wow, if The Simpsons is your "good comedy" bar and you haven't been
able to find anything better in the last 20 years, you must not be
looking very hard.  And I say that as a huge fan of The Simpsons who
has been watching it since it started and has probably seen every
episode, most of them multiple times.

But it's not even the best animated comedy on TV.  Archer, Bob's
Burgers, American Dad, Rick and Morty, even Family Guy is usually
better than The Simpsons any more.

Then there's live action comedies - from the last decade or so there's
been 30 Rock, Parks and Rec, Man Seeking Woman, You're The Worst...I'm
sure about ten more will occur to me after I hit send.

There's a TON of good comedy on TV if you're willing to look for it.

Sort-of-SF-related - did anyone else watch the two recent series that
the BBC made based on Douglas Adams' Dirk Gently character?  They were
my favorite thing I've seen on TV in a long while.  Way better (and
weirder) than I was expecting.
