bored to death on hbo is hilarious i have never been a huge ted danson fan, but he steals the show.
while i wouldn't classify it as a comedy, i think fans of party down would enjoy veronica mars. it definitely has funny moments and witty dialogue. the creator of party down also created veronica mars, and many actors from veronica mars have appeared in party down as main cast members or guests.
check out veronica mars - seriously, it's an amazing show! -

Peep Show with David Mitchell? From England? That's pretty damn obscure for people in the states. That doesn't even show on BBC America here.

Actually, I discovered Peep Show on BBC America a few months ago. The DVR was recording an episode or two a week, but stopped with series four. I've yet to watch the rest online, but it's one of my new favorite comedies. Other favorites have already been mentioned, Arrested Development, Always Sunny,Community, and How I Met Your Mother (which is surprisingly really good, despite the laugh track). The Venture Brothers on adult swim of the cartoon network is a hilarious underrated show, probably my favorite animated comedy.

The Guild - I was shocked by how much I enjoyed it
Better Off Ted - Like the other poster said, how Modern Family has succeeded like it has while BoT was barely noticed amazes me.
Veronica Mars - Not really a comedy but worth mentioning because it was incredible.
The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Tood Margaret - On IFC right now. Cross and Arnett. Hilarious.
Important Things with Demetri Martin - I'd imagine he's got a pretty love/hate style, and the endless puns are fairly hit or miss, but it's an enjoyable show overall.
Ten Items or Less - Everyone I know hated it. I thought it was hilarious.
Parks & Rec - It gets compared to The Office (US) too much for my taste. It's not that good but it's still very funny.
Hotel Babylon - It's pretty cheesy, soap opera satire but I liked it.
Californication - I only watched the first season (and I've heard iffy things about the rest of the series) but little beats Duchonvy.
