Staying solely in the realm of sketch comedy shows I'd say, in order;
1. Mr. Show- IMO the best sketch comedy show ever and it's not even close. Three and a half seasons was not nearly enough.
2. Chappelle Show- The second best sketch show ever. We didn't even get three seasons of it. Success is more difficult than failure for some.
3. The Dana Carvey Show- This show was way too edgy for network TV, I wasn't shocked when it got cancelled after one season. Their Casey Kasem sketch alone probably got them the ax. Hilarious though.
4. The Ben Stiller Show- Yet another one season too edgy for "network" (Fox wasn't a network back then) television. Look at the people who came out of it though.
