what's your favorite current sitcom?

just wondering what people thought were the best sitcoms on tv. for me, I've enjoyed watching:

two and a half men
how I met your mother
freddie


I know there are many others, and am interested in seeing people's lists and comments.

My Name Is Earl

The only other sitcoms I'm actually watching are Will & Grace and Everybody Hates Chris, which are both ok, but not really appointment television this year.

Boondocks, AD, MNIE, Scrubs are the top tier comedies this season (assuming Scrubs regains its footing; we've only had one night so far).
Then, HIMYM, EHC, South Park, Simpsons.
The Office I've only watched once, and it seemed good so I'll give that some more time.
Can't wait for it to come back: Entourage.

Alphabetically: Arrested Development, My Name is Earl, Scrubs, The Simpsons. Those are the only comedies I watch. (NBC and I gave up on Joey at about the same time.)

1. Scrubs
2. How I Met Your Mother (funny, Robin and Lily are hot, and I love the 10 sec intro theme music)
3. My Name is Earl
4. Out of Practice (didn't like it at first, but it grew on me - I forgot if it was the Thanksgiving ep or the wedding ep when I thought "hey, that was really funny.")

While I like AD, I just don't have the patience or tolerance to find it, and it's almost always put in a slot where it's in conflict with 2 other things I want to see. I just wait for the DVD sets. I know that doesn't support it in the ratings though. Of course, I'm not a Nielson or a Tivo household, so it's not like my viewing habits matter anyway...

I'm eagerly awaiting Emily's Reasons Why Not. There should be a pretty obvious pattern in my viewing habits.
