You can have high expectations from this show and it won’t disappoint you
Cheers (1982-1993)
Well, if I ask what is the one thing a comedy show based on life of a group of friends must have to make it memorable?
A Bar or a coffee shop to hang out.
Yes, as you’ve already guessed. A group of people with different life experiences share them at Cheers, a bar where they hang out, along with the bartender and the owner of the bar.
You should really look forward to watching this. This show won 28 primetime Emmy awards for its awesome character and storyline.
Frasier (1993-2004)
Dr. Frasier moves to Boston to start his psychiatric practice afresh. He gets his own radio show where he listens to people’s problems and helps but he himself finds it difficult to cope with his own family. Which brings out hilarious moments in the show.
This show ran for 11 hilariously good seasons.
And the last one is the legendary….
Mr. Bean (1990-1995)
The best ever British Sitcom. Period.
I mean seriously don’t tell me you didn’t watch Mr. Bean in your childhood. Screw it, I still watch it. It’s never getting old for me.
Mr. Bean contains almost no dialogue. It’s a life adventure of a socially unaccepted by the open spirited man Mr. Bean who loves his company. Seriously he doesn’t need anyone to enjoy the beauty of life. He does whatever he wants… which causes him a lot of trouble and a ton and ton of laughter for us. If it comes to one take from this list… I want you to choose this. You won’t regret it.
