I don't find Cougar Town to be particularly hilarious, it isn't offensively unfunny but it doesn't really do much for me. It strikes me as Scrubs lite. Very lite.
I only watch it because the TV is already on ABC after Modern Family.

I've acquired a few eps of Archer and Community to check out. I have watched most of the first ep of the League and like it a lot (not quite love it yet). The whole fantasy football thing put me off in the past because i have no clue about fantasy football.
Ive got all of the first 3 series of Big Bang theory but can't get into the show.

Don't worry. I only know the basics of fantasy football and it hasn't affected my enjoyment of the show. And the show gets better as it goes.

Very little fantasty football in the league as a whole.

"Big Bang Theory" is to nerds what "Mike and Molly" is to the obese: a collection of lowest common denominator jokes exploiting a stereotype. At least Mike and Molly are likable characters though.
Also, the correct answer to the question is "Eastbound and Down"

Community (by far the funniest of NBC's Thursday night lineup)
Psych (lots of 80's pop-culture references, so it definitely appeals to Gen X'ers)
Glee (seriously, beneath the High School Musical veneer is a lot of really funny dark humor)
30 Rock (I don't like this as much as I used to, but it still delivers a lot of laughs)
Castle (yeah, it's a police procedural show, but it's also pretty funny)

There is minimal football involved in the show. There's a few references here and there, but nothing that would turn you away if you hate football.
Yeah, I really should've included that in my Top Five. In fact, I'm going to edit my list now. Don't know how I overlooked that one.
