Why is there always somebody who doesn't understand "Top XX" and always feels the need to post every other comedy he knows, as if it brags about his knowledge.

I'd go for
1.Steptoe And Son
2.Porridge
3.Rising Damp
4.Till Death Us Do Part/In Sickness And In Health
5.Only Fools And Horses (although it went on on far too long)
6.Fawlty Towers
7.The Thick Of It
8.George And Mildred
9.The Office
10.Peep Show
Steptoe And Son is my number 1 but the rest aren't in any particular order but i've left out loads of others including Dear John ,Man About The House, Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em, One Foot In The Grave and The Likely Lads/Whatever Happened To The Likely Lads to name just some, i've never seen an American sitcom that i've even remotely cared for, the Americans make better films but we make better sitcoms but in any event the sitcom is an American invention anyway.
There are two kinds of people in the world my friend those with loaded guns and those who dig -
