It had some amazing one liners and possibly some of the best setups to punchlines that I've ever seen (Any fan will know what I mean when I merely mention "Loose Seal", which for me was a moment I found to be hilarious, well written and very clever). Not to mention one of the best uses of 1 person playing 2 roles that I've seen in a while. There was nothing I could even slightly say bad about this show, it was brilliant and didn't need a laugh track to tell you where the jokes are. The only reason it's so low on this list is because we got 3 seasons out of it.
