06-07’ Primetime TV Season-Part One: favorite 'NBC' Comedy

crowned as 'comedy night done right' i think NBC's thursday comedy lineup is the best lineup of the year hands down. with all 4 shows being funny its hard to choose just one but try anyway, if i had to choose the best of the 4 shows hands down it would have to be scrubs, but all 3 other comedies are great as well anyways all stop yammering on and ask you what your favorite 'NBC' comedy is this year:

NBC- My name is Earl
NBC- The Office
NBC- Scrubs
NBC- 30 Rock

NOTE: I didn't add 'Andy Barker P.I' through i think it is going to be good its only going to be on for 6 weeks to give '30 rock' a break, ill add it if for some reason NBC decides to leave ABPI on and move 30 rock, through i hope not because 30 rock has been really good lately.

I love them all, but "Scrubs" is my favorite comedy on tv right now.. period. "The Office" is my second favorite of the lot.

I'm going with 30 Rock as #1, and Earl very very close behind.

Still hate Scrubs and The Office.

30 Rock, followed very closely by The Office. Scrubs is still amusing, but nowhere near as good as it was in its prime, and I'm getting bored with My Name Is Earl. I still have two unwatched episodes sitting on my TiVo.

Tough call between Office and Earl. Each week, it seems to flip-flop back and forth. I'll go with The Office by a hair. I have to hand it to NBC though - they are the only network (cable or broadcast) that has 2 watchable comedies.

Scrubs. I'm guessing that Andy Barker, P.I. will get a warm-up and then be renewed next season - perhaps replacing the oft-rumored retiring Scrubs.

"Scrubs" will always be my favorite show, but this season "30 Rock" and "The Office" have both been better, w/ the former taking the cake.

30 Rock. I think The Office is already getting stale.

Watched Scrubs once and hated it, never watched any of the others.

Office and Scrubs are both equal in my book but gun to my head, The Office.

The Office is quickly becoming one of my favorite shows of all time. It's one of the few (along with Star Trek: TNG) that I can watch over and over again and still enjoy.

I just started watching Scrubs this season. It has it's moments, but it's a lot more over the top, and I like the subtle humor of the Office.

The subtle humor of The Office (US)?

I watch all four of these shows, but my favorite would have to be The Office, probably followed by 30 Rock.

Scrubs fan here so that is my first. 2nd is Office, though it is nowhere near as good as the wonderful 2nd season.
I am liking 30 Rock allot even though I had no desire to see it at first. I am glad I was proven wrong on that one.
My Name is Earl.
Hell, they're all good.

I must have looked at this thread 20 times since it was posted and I still can't make a choice. I think I'm gonna go with Scrubs, but The Office is essentially tied with it. My Name Is Earl is great too. Hell, even 30 Rock is pretty good, when that's the weak link you know you have a really solid lineup.
