What was the best sketch comedy show (besides SNL)?

Honorable Mentions:

Chapelle’s Show (2003-2006)
Key & Peele (2012-2015)
The State (1993-1995)
The Kids In the Hall (1988-1995)
Mad TV (1995-2009, 2016)
In Living Color (1990-1994)
SCTV (1976-1984)
Monty Python’s Flying Circus (1969-1974)
 
In Living Color, beyond Mad TV I never really watched the others
 
That Mitchell and Webb look, mostly because of Sir Digby Chicken-Caesar

 
Mr. Show with Bob and David.
 
Chapelles show was probably the best.

But my personal favorite was Key n Peele. They were both funny on MadTV, but it's like they turned it up a few notches when they got their own show.
 
Chappelle's Show is the best.

Followed by In Living Color

And I remember thinking Kids In The Hall was funny, but it's been years since I saw it so not sure if it holds up.

Drunk History is pretty good too. And Key & Peele is good.
 
In Living Color pushed the envelope pretty hard and churned out some mega talented people. If I see it on TV, I watch it every time. Never gets old!

Chappelle show is a close second to me. Lots of good stuff came from that show.

Mad TV was great. Kenny Rogers, Stuart, Ms Swan, all had me dying.

Saturday Night Live has sucked dick since Keenan has been on it. They let that dude come up with too many ideas and let him star in everything. He flat out sucks.
 
Chapelle Show by a mile. In a distant second, Upright Standup Brigade. A highly underrated show.
 
Selected python, then KITH, the State, then upright citizens brigade. Snuff box has some moments, as do the the whitest kids posted above.
 
Red Skelton
Carol Burnett
Monty Python
In that order and nothing else comes close.
