Modern Sitcoms

There is only two good sitcoms in the history of these fowl creations, and those are: Scienfeld, and Curb Your Enthusiasm (please don't kill me for copyright). Newer ones are so messed up. I recently watched an episode of one called "Modern Family" and I think, if thats what people find funny nowadays... I don't know what to tell ya.

Newer sitcom's humour revolves around:
-A) women punching each other
-B) Pies/Fluids to the face (literally in every sitcom, there is a moment when a person gets a pie, or any sort of fluid or food in their face)
-C) Happens in New York 90% of the time
-D) Try's to have an actually emotional moment, that is even funnier than the jokes in the sitcom.
-E) There is always some sort of bar/caffe involved
-F) If theres not a house involved, then the people are probably living in a penthouse apartment, that looks like it would cost a million grant.

For me, the episodes are hard to keep track of, unless you can absorb the unrealistic storyline really well. Oh well, maybe humanity will one day return to its former glory, or just die in the dumps. Proof of -B:

exhibit a) 1900s sitcom
exhibit b) Big Bang Theory
