15 Killer Insults from Sitcoms

What’s a good comedy without some good burns?
15 Killer Insults from Sitcoms

TV has given us some great burns through the ages, but comedies have to take the cake, right? They’re comedy writers after all. Trained to put some spice in a solid set-up/punchline. Through some of that solid writing, these characters gave us some top notch burns, and although the subject of the roasting may not have appreciated it, they certainly gave the rest of us a solid laugh. So thank you, pissed-off sitcom characters. Your ire helped make our days.

We’ll consider this a tribute to some of the best torpedo launchers in the game. The Red Formans, and the Karen Walkers of the world. They walked into a room like, ‘Alright, who’s gettin’ it today?!” Then there’s the best TV duos whose entire relationship is zinger-trading. The Lemon/Donaghy and Moira/Alexis combos who trade jabs until the very rare heartfelt moment reminds us that deep down, they do indeed love each other. We’ll focus on the love some other time, but for now, here are 15 killer insults from killer comedy shows.

We all know those sigh-inducing boredom bots.

Naomi really doesn’t like to be inconvenienced.

CRACKED NAOMI REMINDS REBECCA OF HER SHORTCOMINGS. CRAZY EX-GIRLFRIEND I hope this isn't another stunt like your little 'suicide attempt' in law school. You didn't even break your skin, and you inconvenienced a lot of people.

Red never fails to disappoint.

CRACKED ONE OF RED'S BEST DUMBASSES. THAT '70S SHOW Son, you don't have bad luck. The reason bad things happen to you, is because you're a dumbass.

Because simply calling someone a caveman is boring.

Barney lets Robin know that she’s aged like fine… Milk.
