This. So much. Many are unwatchable today.

There's a few old episodes of Make Me Laugh and one skit was so funny I think I was laughing for an hour. Even now when I think of that skit I laugh. I won't say what the skit is but give a clue. The comedian says "excuse me" and the takes something out of a bag and does something hilarious.

I can still get laughs from Rules of Engagement probably because of all the sarcasm. Also the eclectic cast works well together. Patrick Warburton is my favorite.

SEINFELD is still funny, but its starting to look dated. The 90s are over, amigo.

Been rewatching episodes of 'Just Shoot Me' on Hulu, and to me, they're still funny. It's a comedy that was generic enough to age well. And I don't mean that as an insult.. it had a funny cast of characters, but it wasn't really topical or political humor & commentary. I feel it has relatable, workplace humor that is timeless.
