(Believe my knowledge of American TV is very poor)

There are very few American Sitcoms that I'll watch... I quite enjoy The Big Bang Theory. I enjoy pretty much anything that Seth MacFarlane has a part in.... that man is amazing.
I dont know if there are any similar shows in America to the ones in your list but I would imagine there would be. They may even be better.

You should maybe look into American sitcom a little more if you like The Big Bang Theory. Ive been watching that too but its not even close to approaching the better American sitcom's.

Oh and to Urbans comment - It's not that bad but does Have I Got News For You even really rank with QI and the likes?
