"American rock band Kool & the Gang once melodiously advised us to, and I'm paraphrasing here, celebrate all the good times. Now this declaration of positivity was released in 1980 — six years before the first episode of Alf aired on NBC — but the band's essential message remains as relevant as ever when discussing the current state of television. 2020 may very well be the living embodiment of the Mad Men "not great, Bob" meme, but even expired boxes of Cracker Jacks contain a prize.
Television not only survived but thrived in 2020 by introducing a host of new streaming platforms, fresh shows, and returning favorites. But most importantly, TV helped keep us sane. Hmm, this intro is beginning to sound like I'm about to present TV with a lifetime achievement award at the Emmys. I may as well lean into it, I suppose.
Here are Decider's picks for funniest TV episodes of 2020!"
