Seinfeld is the only one I like. The others I don't care for.
Dispatches from the Romulan War: DRW has come to an end! I hope you enjoy the final arc.

I don't really watch sitcoms, at least not on any kind of consistent basis. But from the episodes I have seen, I would rank these (from best to worst)

Friends
Will and Grace
Seinfeld
Drew Carey Show
Home Improvement
Frasier (which is only not dead last because David Hyde Pierce is awesome and shone despite the stupidity of the show)
Everybody Loves Raymond
Visit these links (and others that the forum won't let me post):
Doctors without Borders --- Amnesty International --- ICotRC --- UNICEF

I would say:

Seinfeld
Everybody Loves Raymond
Friends
Frasier
Drew Carey Show
Home Improvement
Will and Grace

Seinfeld I watch the most, Raymond I watch quite a bit as well, Friends and Frasier every once in a while. Drew Carey show was alright, but nothing special, Home Improvement is pretty crap but I'd watch. And I really don't watch Will and Grace :P

Of those listed, gotta go with Seinfeld. Other than that, i really can't think of too many other shows that kept me very interested.

Frasier has been on multiple reruns in my area, at one time or another, I think I've seen every episode.

I loved the first season of Friends, but after that it just started repeating itself and I quit watching. I've seen a few episodes of Seinfeld, but somehow that never grabbed me.

In general I tend to prefer British comedy, shows like Keeping Up Appearances, Yes (Prime) Minister, Absolutely Fabulous etc.

I wish more stations here in the US would show British comedy. They are very hard to find in my area. <_<
