I would have placed my bets on Donalds last press conference, but the Simpsons are great too.

My thoughts exactly.

I did think the Simpsons sketch was funny, but it's not even a close second.

I quite like that Simpsons clip. The absolutely outlandish 'aurora borealis' explanation is so bizarre that it does catch me off guard....and make me laugh, just like it should! 8)

I'm inclined to agree. Larry David is certainly a favorite of mine.

I wouldn't say you guys are funnier than we are, especially whenever the sheer magnitude of Seinfeld alone puts any Canadian TV sitcom I've seen to shame. Aside from Corner Gas, Kids in the Hall, and SCTV what comedy shows do you guys have that are noteworthy?
